Ready to own a territory? Whether you're making your move into sales or already living it, Watson Fuels wants to hear from you.

Niche Recruitment is proud to be partnering with Watson Fuels to recruit Account Executives across its depot-based regional teams. If you're commercially minded, enjoy building genuine customer relationships, and want a role where your patch is truly yours to develop, this is worth reading.

You don't need fuel or energy sector experience to be successful here. Watson Fuels is particularly interested in people who understand how to work with customers, build trust, and spot opportunities. You might currently be working in retail, hospitality, call centre sales, merchandising, logistics, or another customer-facing environment where you're used to managing relationships and solving problems. Sector knowledge helps, but it won't make or break your application. What matters is how you think, how you work, and how you treat customers.

If you bring the right attitude, curiosity, and willingness to learn, the rest can be taught.

This is a hybrid, regional role. You'll manage your own territory, work closely with depot, operations, and planning teams, and play a genuine part in delivering a service customers rely on every day. You'll also be supported with onboarding, product training, and guidance from experienced colleagues to help you get up to speed quickly.

Managing and growing a defined customer territory, this patch becomes yours to own

Building strong, lasting relationships with new and existing customers

Spotting and converting opportunities to win new business and grow existing accounts

Handling pricing conversations confidently within agreed guidelines

Keeping your sales pipeline healthy and your CRM records accurate

Keeping a sharp eye on competitor activity, pricing trends, and local market shifts

Bringing insight to the table to shape local and regional sales strategy

Managing your diary with discipline to make sure every opportunity gets the follow-up it deserves

What Watson Fuels is looking for

Sales or strong customer-facing experience, sector background is a bonus, not a barrier

Solid organisational skills and confident diary management

Comfortable working to targets and KPIs, and motivated by hitting them

Strong communication and relationship-building skills, people buy from people they trust

A professional, customer-first approach in everything you do

Good IT literacy and confidence using a CRM

What's on offer

Competitive salary

Uncapped commission paid monthly, so your efforts are rewarded quickly and without a ceiling

25 days' holiday plus bank holidays

Why this role could be your next step

Whether you're an experienced sales professional ready for a new challenge, or someone from a customer-facing background looking to step into territory sales for the first time, this role is built for people with potential as much as a proven track record.

You'll have real commercial ownership, a supportive team behind you, and the freedom to build something you're proud of. If you're motivated, customer-focused, and ready to back yourself, we'd love to hear from you.
