Are you a natural go-getter who loves talking to people, solving problems and learning how things work?

Maker Store is looking for a B2B Sales Executive to join our growing team and build a career in technical sales, business development and solution selling.

This is an opportunity to get out there, build relationships, find new customers and turn real business problems into practical engineering solutions.

You don't need to be an engineer. What matters most is your attitude, curiosity, confidence and drive to succeed.

What You'll Be Selling

Maker Store supplies businesses across engineering, manufacturing, automation, education, laboratories, logistics and other commercial industries.

You'll learn about and sell a diverse range of technical products and solutions, including:

Aluminium extrusion and linear motion systems

Bearings, ball screws, motors and mechanical components

Electronics and control systems

CNC machines and machine kits

Custom engineering and machine builds

Industrial workstations and furniture

Sourcing, assembly and bespoke customer solutions

The exciting part? You're not simply selling a product — you're helping customers solve problems.

What You'll Be Doing

Working closely with our Sales Manager, you'll learn how to:

Identify and prospect new B2B customers

Pick up the phone and confidently start conversations

Build relationships with purchasing, engineering, operations and management teams

Understand what a customer actually needs

Identify opportunities for Maker Store to provide a solution

Develop existing customer accounts and uncover new opportunities

Work with Engineering and Operations to develop solutions

We value individuals who go above and beyond. The ideal candidate embraces an 'extra mile mindset,' demonstrating a commitment to excellence and a willingness to contribute beyond expectations. This proactive approach aligns with our vision for growth, and we welcome candidates eager to evolve and advance with the company.

Why Join Maker Store?

This is more than a junior sales position. It's an opportunity to develop a real career in technical B2B sales.

You'll receive hands-on coaching from our Sales Manager and gain exposure to a broad range of customers, engineering products and custom projects. You'll develop skills in prospecting, account management, technical sales and solution selling — with genuine opportunity to grow as our B2B business expands.

What We're Looking For

Previous experience in sales, business development, customer service or account management is preferred, but we are absolutely open to a candidate with the right attitude and aptitude.
