We’re looking for a commercially driven, relationship-focused sales leader who knows how to turn opportunity into growth. You’ll be someone who thrives on building strong partnerships, spotting new revenue streams, and driving performance across a diverse network. You’re just as comfortable shaping strategy as you are rolling up your sleeves and making things happen on the ground. With a natural ability to influence and inspire, you’ll bring out the best in our franchisee - coaching them to think commercially, act confidently, and deliver results. This is a pivotal role at the heart of Metro Plumb’s ambitious growth journey. As National Sales Manager, you’ll play a key part in expanding our UK network - driving revenue, identifying new market opportunities and strengthening relationships with both national clients and our franchise network. Blending strategic thinking with a hands-on approach, you’ll lead from the front - developing high-value accounts while coaching and empowering franchisees to maximise their commercial potential. Your impact will be felt across the entire network, helping to build confident, capable, and self-sufficient franchisees who are set up for long-term success. If you thrive in a fast-paced, growth-focused environment and enjoy influencing both strategy and on-the-ground performance, this is an opportunity to make a real mark.
