Job Description

Looking for More Than Just a Job? Start Your Career at the Heart of the Trade Industry

With Henley Plumbing Supplies, part of the largest independent networks of plumbing and heating merchants in the UK with over 320 sites nationwide.

Our business is built on a decentralised model, which means every team is trusted to run their site like it's their own and gain the benefits of Profit Share by doing so.

As an Apprentice Trade Supplier, you'll join a local team where your effort genuinely makes a difference - and where long-term, high-earning careers are built from the ground up.

You'll gain hands-on experience across both warehouse and trade counter operations, while working toward your Level 2 Trade Supplier Apprenticeship.

This is more than an apprenticeship - it's the first step in running your own business unit one day.

What You'll Do

Serve trade and retail customers at the counter and by phone

Help pick and pack orders accurately and efficiently

Receive and manage deliveries

Keep the warehouse organised and safe

Learn product knowledge and technical basics

Support sales, logistics, and customer service as part of the wider branch team

What You'll Learn

With structured training and on-the-job coaching, you'll cover:

Sales and customer service in a trade environment

Stock control, warehousing, and logistics

Product knowledge across plumbing and heating

Commercial thinking, teamwork, and operations

Environmental awareness, legislation, and sustainability

Who You Are

Motivated, dependable, and ready to learn by doing

Enjoy working with people and delivering great service

Like physical, hands-on work in a fast-paced environment

Curious about how businesses run and grow

Looking for long-term opportunity - not just a short-term job

Why This Role Is Different

At Henley Plumbing Supplies, your apprenticeship isn't just a learning opportunity - it's a launchpad. Many of our managers and regional leaders started out on the counter or in the warehouse, just like you.

Because each branch is run with autonomy, you'll gain real commercial experience early - with the chance to influence how your site performs, grows, and succeeds.

We're not just offering an apprenticeship - we're investing in our next generation of leaders. Click 'Apply Now' or contact Ben.jarnak@uk-ps.com to get more details on how the apprenticeship is structured.
