The success of Urban foodservice means we have a vacancy! Come and be part of our Fieldsales team covering South London and some surrounding areas, you will be based out of our Paddock Wood depot. In this fast paced role where no two days are the same. Our ultimate goal is to keep the customer at the heart of everything we do and to do this you need to be good at building strong relationships with customers by really understanding their needs and looking for solutions to keep them happy.

Working for us, you’ll not be just a number; you’ll be part of an inspiring team where your views count. You’ll be responsible for developing sales and profit in your area, by creating opportunities to sell more to our current customers and give them ultimate customer service, while at the same time identifying and converting prospect customers!
