Benchmarx has a clear vision of becoming the ‘first choice supplier of kitchen and joinery products to the trade

Joining our family as a Showroom Manager, you’ll be responsible for the profitability and maximisation within the showroom together with dealing with managerial problems covering the full spectrum of management disciplines. Through your team you’ll co-ordinate sales and purchasing, and must have the ability and experience to react to changes in company market share.

At Benchmarx we pride ourselves on being a great place to work. We’re a top employer that looks after our people and empowers them to look after our business and our loyal customer base.

Day to day, you’ll encourage superb service and make sure safety comes first. We’ll expect you to know your way around our operation - and that calls for relevant experience or the desire to know more…

General duties will include

        * developing business interests - interacting with customers and representatives of associated industries
        * maintaining and enhancing profitability of the showroom - reviewing costs and modifying stock

It is essential that you have previous experience within this field coupled with excellent communication skills and are able to work on your own initiative with minimum supervision. Having a Full UK Drivers licence is also essential for this role as you will be required to travel.

In return, you’ll have every opportunity to drive your career forward within a large and expanding business with deep local roots and strong family values.

What’s in it for you?
At Benchmarx, we have strong family values and believe in getting the right work/life balance, meaning you’ll only work during the week and 4 hours every other Saturday. We make sure that hard work is rewarded and as an inclusive, family environment we want every team member to be recognised for the work they do. 

We’ll also equip you with a benefits package that grows as you grow with the company:

        * Competitive performance related bonus
        * Save-as-you-earn scheme
        * Buy-as-you-earn scheme
        * Contributory pension scheme
        * Colleague discount across a variety of Group businesses including special discounts across our Trade Merchanting businesses

A bit about us
For 15 years Benchmarx have offered a high quality range of kitchens and joinery products backed up by excellent service.  But what really sets us apart is a company culture of being great people to work with, whether as colleagues or with our valued customers.  With over 150 branches UK wide, we are proud to be part of Travis Perkins.  


We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves. 
You be you, it makes us, us.
