We work with the likes of Tesco, Marks and Spencer, Mitie, Clarion, Axa, Wetherspoons and many more in the Facilities Management, Social Housing, Property Management, Retail, Industrial and Leisure sectors. Despite having been around for 40 years, we are a fast-growing and dynamic business and part of an ever-expanding group Franchise Brands.
Metro Rod has been leading the way in drainage solutions for over 40 years.
Founded in 1983, Metro Rod is a leading provider of drain clearance and maintenance services delivered on a largely reactive basis. The services are provided by over 40 franchisees with geographical coverage across the majority of the UK.

Major companies and leading high street names trust us to deal with all their regular drain maintenance and we’ll bring the same high standards of service to tackle your drain blockage.

The successful individual will bring additional resource to the sales team to help us continue on our growth trajectory and you will be predominantly responsible for bringing on NEW BUSINESS whilst also growing a small number of current accounts.
We provide emergency and planned drainage and plumbing through our national franchised network incorporating pumps, sewage treatment plants, asset mapping, tankering services and we are expanding our plumbing services into gas and renewables.
Whilst this role will be predominantly remotely based, you will need to be located in the North Scotland area.

You will attend expos and shows and represent our business at customer sites and meet with franchisees and our Business Development Managers in the field.
