SALES REPRESENTATIVE, WHITEMEADOW

Who we are
You might not know our name, but chances are, you’ve chilled out on one of our sofas.

At Whitemeadow, we design and develop trend-leading, commercially driven sofas for some of the biggest names in UK furniture retail. We’re white label, so the products we develop are stocked and branded by our retail partners. You’ll find our work in homes all over the nation, trusted by both independent and major retailers to deliver great product with commercial flair.

We’re proud to be the UK’s largest privately owned upholstery manufacturer, with multiple sites across Nottinghamshire. We’ve been growing for 30 years and counting, driven by the dedication of our talented team and our commitment to creating products people love coming home to.

But we’re not just about making great products. We’re about raising the bar. Our mission is to lead – not just in what we create, but in how we work and who we work with. We believe that to make truly stand-out furniture, we need stand-out people. That’s why we hire talented individuals who live our values, bring a positive mindset, and take pride in what they do.

At Whitemeadow, we’re here to inspire, impress, and innovate – together.

About the job
Help shape our next chapter. We’re on the lookout for an exceptional sales representative to join our passionate and forward-thinking team at Whitemeadow, one of the most respected names in British-made upholstery.

We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just sell – but connects, consults, and brings energy and ideas to every conversation. Business travel throughout your territory is essential, as is participation in our regular sales team meetings here at HQ, in Nottingham. 

If you’re driven by relationships, excited by the chance to grow business in a respected and design-led company, and you have a genuine passion for British manufacturing, we’d love to hear from you.
