About PPG
A third of PPG's sales titles are counter jobs rather than field selling: 25 sales assistants (some of whom also drive) in Johnstone's Decorating Centres and refinish depots across Britain and Ireland, plus two in Australian stores, who serve trade customers, match colours and keep the shelves stocked. In the US, 16 of its 20 openings belong to Automotive Refinish: territory sales managers who sell paint systems and sundries through distributors to dealer, multi-shop and independent collision centers in markets such as Oklahoma City, Las Vegas, Arizona, Dallas, Indianapolis, Roanoke, the Carolinas and Scranton, commercial territory managers who sell fleet and light industrial coatings in Illinois, South Dakota and Nebraska, Arkansas and Oklahoma and the Carolinas, and business development managers who open new accounts and support those territories. The other four US seats are two aerospace transparency strategic account managers in Huntsville, Alabama, a remote automotive OEM account manager covering tier suppliers and a protective and marine coatings rep for New England. Outside the US the same business lines hire key account managers and field reps: aerospace sellers in Toronto, São José dos Campos and the Nordics, a global key account manager in Germany who owns MAN and leads the Scania and Volvo Trucks accounts, protective and oil and gas key accounts in Shanghai, a marine coatings rep calling on ship owners in Singapore, a Trade Direct territory manager and a render specialist in the UK, and trade and residential account and territory managers in Queensland, Sydney and Melbourne. About a quarter of the openings are in the US and more than a third in the UK and Ireland, with the rest spread over Australia, China, Germany, the Netherlands, Canada, Latin America and Southeast Asia.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
