    The role can be divided into two areas:
    • One is technical: setting up the team, supervising the jobs on site
    • One is commercial: visiting potential clients and drafting quotes
  • Required skills:
    • dynamism
    • a positive attitude
    • a taste for direct sales

An affinity with green spaces and outdoor renovations is essential to thrive in our business.
