Join a Business Scaling Fast and Redefining Safety in the PPE Market
If you’re ready to join a high-growth PPE leader that is deeply invested in its people, its products, and its future, this is an opportunity to take real ownership of a major territory - and play a visible role in the next chapter of a global organisation that is scaling with purpose.
The Opportunity
We are partnering with a leading PPE innovator with an established footprint across the UK and an ambitious trajectory for continued expansion. Known for performance-led design, and long-standing distributor partnerships, this is a business that cuts through in a crowded safety market – delivering solutions that protect people, perform in the real world, and set new standards across the sector.
This company is now entering an exciting new phase of growth. With a clear vision to strengthen market presence and accelerate distributor-led sales performance, they are now seeking a dynamic, hungry, and driven Area Sales Manager to join their ambitious UK sales team.
This is a field-based role covering the North of England and parts of Wales, offering real autonomy, strong internal support, and the opportunity to make a visible impact within a forward-thinking organisation that is scaling fast and continuing to raise the bar in PPE.
If you thrive in fast-paced, growth-focused environments and want to represent a brand that genuinely leads from the front, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.
Your Role
As Area Sales Manager, you will take full ownership of your region – driving revenue growth through strategic distributor partnerships, new business development, and strong end-user engagement.
You’ll represent a trusted premium brand in the market, building lasting relationships and positioning the organisation as the safety partner of choice across your territory.
Your region will be defined by agreed postcodes across the North of England and parts of Wales:
(LN, DN, S, SK, CW, CH, LL, WA, L, WN, M, BL, OL, HX, HD, WF, LS, HU, YO, HG, BD, BB, PR, FY, LA, DL, TS, DH, SR, NE, CA)
Your Key Responsibilities

Benefits
Your Package & Benefits
Rather than a standard commission model, this role offers a robust salary and a generous profit-share bonus paid quarterly, on track for 10%+ salary. With the company’s impressive ongoing growth, this structure provides significant earning potential and a compelling package for high-performing sales professionals.
This is more than a sales role – it’s a chance to join a business that backs its people, delivers market-leading solutions, and is building something ambitious in the UK safety space. If you want autonomy, momentum, and the platform to make your mark, we’d love to hear from you.
