• Sales Experience: Proven track record in technical sales or business development within the UK electrical manufacturing or contracting sector.
• Communication: Ability to translate complex engineering concepts into "value-add" propositions for non-technical stakeholders.
• Autonomy: A self-starter capable of managing their own diary and territory while maintaining high activity levels.
• Tools: Proficient in CRM software and Microsoft Office; familiarity with CAD/BIM software is a distinct advantage.

What We Offer

• Competitive Salary: Highly competitive base salary plus a performance-linked bonus structure.
• Company Vehicle: High-spec company car or generous car allowance.
