From fencing and decking to balustrades, screening, and bathroom solutions, we provide complete building systems designed for installers, builders, and contractors

As we continue to grow, we are looking for an experienced Trade Sales Representative to support customer relationships, drive sales growth, and contribute to branch performance across the business.

This is a customer-focused role that plays a key part in strengthening customer partnerships, increasing revenue, and supporting the growth of the branch.
