1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I work in sales in the wholesale sector, my role is predominantly account management, managing customers that sit within the Unitas buying group and National Buying Consortium. Involves a lot of travelling to see customers and building relationships, lots of sales conversations and all round good experience.
