As we expand across Newcastle, we are looking for driven individuals ready to step into a Trainee Sales Manager opportunity with genuine career progression.
This is an events-driven leadership pathway, not a desk-bound management role. You’ll begin by mastering direct sales and customer engagement, with structured development into team leadership and campaign management.

- Comfortable working in a face-to-face sales environment
- Resilient, proactive and goal-oriented individuals
- Full-time availability, Monday to Friday
