At Rentokil Initial, we believe in our "Promote from Within" philosophy. We are looking for ambitious and driven individuals to join our Sales Trainee Program, a fast-track initiative designed to build our next generation of top-performing Sales Consultants.

This is not a typical entry-level job. It is a paid, structured apprenticeship where you will be a key part of our strategic talent pipeline.

We are investing in you for the long term.

Your Journey with Us

Phase 1: The Training Program Your journey begins with a comprehensive training program to build your skills in our services and sales methodology. Following this, you will be given clear, measurable assignments that contribute directly to our branch operations, allowing you to learn and grow through hands-on experience.

Phase 2: The Goal - The Sales Consultant Role The entire program is designed to prepare you for the responsibilities of a Sales Consultant. In this future role, your mission will be to drive business growth. Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Identifying, pursuing, and developing new business opportunities from existing and potential customers.
  • Upselling and cross-selling our full range of services to meet client needs.
  • Closing sales by articulating solutions effectively and demonstrating superior value over our competitors.
  • Building strong, lasting professional relationships aimed at retaining existing clients.
  • Serving as a key source of market intelligence by monitoring and advising management on competitor activity.

  • Resilience and optimism in the face of challenges.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
