    I have applied for a position as a field sales person in the past but was not succesful at that time, is there still a chance of being selected in the future?
    Relationship Building is a big part of being a good Salesman and I feel with the right training I would excel in this position. Is there any opportunities in the South East of England at the moment?

    That sounds good. I am very interested in all aspects of training to become a better salesman.
    I have worked in retail in the past and just finished a 2 month spell of Door-to-Door Sales.
    Are you able to tell me what the daily shifts are from and to?

    We support flexible working here which would be discussed with your line manager inline with a successful application however usually its Monday-Friday 9am-5pm. Does that answer your question?

    Sorry to jump in Rosie- when you say you support flexible working what does this look like?

    Thanks!It does seem quite an exciting place to work, especially, for myself as I have a real passion for sales and people.
    Hi Rosie, yes, thank you. These hours are perfect for me. I am even more encouraged to apply to available vacancies in the south east area. I'm in Dover Kent and of course willing to travel to my designated areas while training on the job.

    We would for example look to (where we can) support hours that might differ from the usual 9-5. So for example part time, or for example 8-4 however all within the Monday-Friday.
