There is also the chance to make commission on sales. You will be given full direction and support as well.

The role is mainly mobile, but we meet in central London once a week to catch up – we're a small, friendly team and like to keep up keep face-to-face contact as we think that's important. And because we're a small team, you will play an important and valuable part in the team.
