Can anyone point me in the direction of good job web sites for a challenge hungry salesman?
I look at the Daily Telegraph which is OK.
The Grauniad is full of graduate jobs.
myUKjobs is a PITA to navigate and full od PPI Claims consultants (consultants FFS!), solar sales or loft cavity surveyors (yes sir, I have been surveying and can with 100% confidence you have a loft!!!!!).
Anywhere else that will have good jobs on an easily navigated site for jobs in the north west, murkeyside and north Wales regions.
TIA.

www.Indeed.co.uk collects all of the adverts from all others, very comprehensive but has a lot of repetition (its basic in that sense) but puts everything together in one place.

But some companies only advertise on their own sites so if there's companies you want to work for double-check their websites as well

Monster.com?
Just to get your name out there so the agents can find you.

Try The Grocer Magazine or website, not just for FMCG's.

Shame you don't live near the M4 as we are desperate for "a challenge hungry salesman", we just keep getting crud or those who promise the world by who won't send their CV's in.

Focused towards industrial flexi hoses but open to the right person.

I don't have anything to do with the hiring though.

Central M4 area best as the area covers the south

Totaljobs,Jobsite,indeed,monster,michaelpage,reed,lots of sales jobs on RHR( retail human resources )
Regard it as a web you are spinning list your details and post your CV on each one then every time you see a job your interested in , apply for it and also visit the website of whoevers handling it and register there too, it takes forever but then again your job is to get a new job

Also get on LinkedIn and spend an evening looking for everyone you have worked with and invite them- you will be surprised how many people come out the woodwork from your work past- someone just may have a job for you

Also is your CV any good ? Is it a list of each job spec or is it achievements based?

Have a look at this website for some career coaching from Claire

She's really good,but not in your area

Do you have a web for me to look at the company Mr Climber?
My email should be in the profile.
Do you know the salary and how many days holiday there are? 😉
Thanks.

but then again your job is to get a new job

I really must try and remember this, every time I hear it I think about how true it is, every time. 😆

But you don't live nearby David

You live and want to work in "north west, murkeyside and north Wales regions." don't you?

I'm both flexible and mobile, I'm willing to relocate for the right company.

My firm won't pay for someone to relocate and would like someone with contacts already with customers in the said area.

What have you sold to industry in the past?

TBH I can see why people aren't sending CVs, with all due respect you don't sell the company very well. 🙁
Thanks for your time.
