This transformational role will drive growth within a key division of a world-leading manufacturing company. You will begin by learning the industry, products, customer base, and market landscape, with the long-term goal of developing and owning your own portfolio of strategic accounts.
Our client designs and manufactures cutting-edge technology that plays a critical role across a range of high-tech industries. With state-of-the-art facilities across the UK, Europe, and North America, they are recognised for their commitment to innovation, engineering excellence, and investing in both their people and technology. Career development is actively encouraged, with multiple routes for progression across sales, technical, leadership, and international opportunities.
This is an exciting opportunity for a commercially driven individual to join a market-leading organisation and play a key role in generating new business opportunities within the machine tooling sector. Working alongside an experienced sales team, you will identify and engage prospective customers, build relationships with decision-makers, and develop opportunities that contribute to the company's continued growth.
This position focuses on new business development and is ideal for someone who enjoys creating opportunities and opening new doors. You will be given a dedicated portfolio of prospect accounts to develop, focusing on organisations that are not currently customers. Through market research, networking, customer visits, industry events, and proactive outreach, you will build relationships with key stakeholders and convert target accounts into qualified sales opportunities.
Initially, you will focus on developing market knowledge, building relationships within your assigned accounts, and creating a strong pipeline of opportunities. As your expertise grows, you will become a trusted advisor to customers and play an increasingly influential role within the business. After a few months of training, you will travel weekly to visit customers at least 2 days per week.
We are keen to speak with candidates who have experience in business development, field sales, technical sales, capital equipment sales, or similar customer-facing commercial roles. A background in manufacturing, engineering, fabrication, sheet metal, industrial technology, or capital equipment would be advantageous. However, we are equally interested in ambitious sales professionals with a proven track record of winning new business and developing customer relationships.
Requirements:- A driven and proactive personality.
- Experience in sales or account management.
- A background in an engineering/manufacturing environment.
