Job description

The Company

A privately owned and long established, well respected organisation based in the south of England. Specialising in the supply of high end technology and leading edge RF/Microwave products. With an extensive range that covers components and sub-systems which are used in both the military/aerospace and commercial sectors.

This will be achieved by maintaining high level communication with existing customer base and by continually increasing customer database using all sales techniques and tools available.

This is a challenging role that requires communication at all levels from end user engineers and technicians through to top level senior management and board members. A willingness to travel (approx. 60%) is required as the customer base could be spread across the UK and possibly Europe.

Primary Duties:

1. Maintain contact with existing base of customers to keep on top of new opportunities.
2. Search for new potential customers in appointed regions of responsibility.
3. Develop high quality technical responses and price quotations/proposals to present to the customer.
4. Provide regular visit reports with necessary actions and update company database with activity dates.
5. Report back into the company with both market and forecast information.
6. Look to continuously improve market and technology understanding.

The Person

Probably a graduate engineer who has been working well within a high-end technology company for the past 1-2 years. Will be driven and hardworking and confident in his/her ability. A good listener with a social and likable character. An educator who possesses the ability to ask for something when needed (an order)!
