how did you have your lookup function set up?

I have some large spreadsheets with customer addresses and need to assign a
sales manager to each of then. The sales area is assigned by the first
letters in the postcode. I.e GL7 5TQ, GL means David, W15 0JD, W means Rob.
I have checked the IF function but that's limited to 7 functions and I have
some 70 odd postcodes to assign. I also tried the Lookup function, but I
didn't get it to work. ( not saying it works but I couldn't get it to
work...;-)

Has anyone a solution for this problem?
