We’re looking for a dynamic, self-motivated Area Sales Manager to join our team at Wicksteed, a trusted name in the design, manufacture, and installation of playground and recreational spaces across the UK.

• Conducting site visits to survey locations and develop tailored design briefs and costings that meet customer needs
