What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years’ experience in territory or regional sales (automotive or trade-related preferred)
- Prior tenure with a major oil brand or a reseller/distributor of a major oil and lubricant company
- Demonstrated ability to exceed sales targets and grow market share
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- Organised and self-motivated, with the ability to work autonomously across a wide rural area

- Competitive salary, based on experience
- Fully maintained company vehicle
