Job Specification

Area Sales Manager, Business Development Manager, Technical Sales Manager - Packaging & Process Machinery : Food

This is a classic Area Sales Manager role covering Scotland, with a 50 / 50 split between account management and new business development. You'll be covering a well-established, high-potential territory with significant opportunities for growth. The role is fully supported by a dedicated pre‑sales technical team and post‑order project management, allowing you to focus entirely on driving sales and managing customer relationships. This opportunity has arisen due to the retirement of the previous long‑standing incumbent.
