• Support the Sales function by participating in pre-sales meetings, technical presentations, and proposal development.
• Attend tradeshows, networking events, and client hospitality settings to build and maintain strong client relationships.
• Help position the company as a preferred partner early in client project planning cycles.

Business Development

• Collaborate with the Sales Executive and leadership team to align technical solutions with client requirements.
• Negotiate and close project-related sales opportunities, ensuring alignment between commercial terms and delivery feasibility.

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Act as the link between Sales, Engineering, Procurement, and Production to ensure technical and commercial goals are aligned.
• Work with subcontractors and suppliers to manage project-specific procurement and external production needs.

Continuous Improvement & Strategy

• Identify process improvements, cost-saving opportunities, and technical innovations to enhance project efficiency and client value.
• Stay informed on market trends, competitor activity, and customer feedback to refine offerings and maintain competitive edge.

Qualifications & Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Business, or a related field.
• Strong composite manufacturing/technical experience, specifically pre-preg.
• Proven experience in project management and technical sales or solution engineering.
• Experience in working within an SME.
• Strong interpersonal, communication, and presentation skills.
• Exceptional organizational and multitasking abilities.
• Experience using CRM tools, project management software and MRP systems (specifically ProgressPlus).
• Full UK driving license and willingness to travel with overnight stays as required.

Why This Role?

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys both client-facing work and hands-on project leadership, and who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. You’ll play a pivotal role in both growing the business and delivering successful engineering outcomes.

BAMD Mission Value Statement:

We strive to be the leading composites solution provider in the country - not just a supplier. Our focus is on delivering high-quality products on time, as trusted project partners, where the final needs of the product, assembly or component always takes the upmost priority.

• Care and Quality – Embrace reality, Approach situations objectively, gather data, and make fact-based decisions to drive meaningful improvements.
• Communication – Prioritize direct conversations, starting with a call or face to face discussion to address issues, find solutions and align. Follow up an email to document the decision and ensure accountability within the wider team.
• Solutions, not problems – Identify challenges and face them head-on. View painful problems as opportunities for improvement rather than obstacles. Don’t mistake symptoms for root causes—solve the real problem, not just its effects.
• The team works – Encourage constructive feedback and prioritize truth over ego. Mistakes happen, and that’s okay—just make sure they don’t happen twice. Growth comes from learning, not protecting egos.
• Consistency in everything – Set SMART Goals, proactively identify and diagnose problems, design effective working solutions, and take decisive action. Success comes from discipline, clarity and follow-through.
