The Role

Are you a self -motivated sales professional who thrives on autonomy? We are seeking an ambitious, field -based Area Field Sales Manager to manage and grow our expansive South of England territory.

This is a dynamic, consultative sales role where you will manage your own diary, cultivate long -term relationships, and introduce stylish eyewear collections alongside advanced vision technology to independent opticians, NHS clinics, and retail partners.

Key Responsibilities
