I'm on a search for a new job finally having a vague idea of what I'd like to do (either Sales Admin, Customer Service or ideally Sales rep) if I end up office based as opposed to finding something yard based (I seem to be too fussy and can't find anything I'd like so far/the vacancy is already filled by the time I apply when it comes to yard jobs)

So I have now emailed the following companies, but if anyone knows of any others, please mention them! (Nb, Feed companies won't be much good, I have very limited nutritional knowledge and no degree which they seem to tend to require)

- Matchmakers International Ltd (Tottie, Harry Hall, Caldene etc)
- Ariat
- Horseware Ireland
- Shires Equestrian
- Dublin Clothing
- Wefi (JHL, Westgate etc)
- Horsemasters (Mountain Horse)
- GFS
- Charles Owen
- Woofwear
- Also Equestrian Clearance who are currently advertising a customer service vacancy.

I'd like to break into the equestrian field of business, and have a chance to make more of a career as where I am currently there is no chance of progressing further nor getting a salary increase.
 
Weatherbeeta are based in Banbury with a distribution centre near Daventry and often advertise for office based people...Dublin is one of their brands but they have lots of others.
Could also look into working at one of the governing bodies..BEF etc is at Stoneleigh, BHS will be back there but currently in some office in Cov !
A word of warning...other than rep jobs, tend to offer fairly rubbish money, but I guess the perks would be quite good!
 
Had an interview at Weatherbeeta lately tho didn't get the job (and stupidly didn't inquire as to why/ask for feedback) and called to see if they still had my details so that's covered.
Same with BHS. Meant to get round to the Stoneleigh based companies so thanks for the reminder. Does anyone have a full list of who's based there at all?
I know money is generally not great but would intend to use it more as a foot in the doorway/chance to progress up sharpish, not hang around at lower levels, if possible.
Tho it would be nice to cut down from 45-50 hours per week to something with less hours but similar scales of pay, even if not a pay rise.

Dubsie- without meaning to be totally dense, what kind of companies do you have in mind? I don't mind helping business' expand/go into new fields, it's something I've done where i am now. So could be something to look into
