Job description

Engineering Sales Executive- all levels considered

This is an opportunity to join a well-established specialist electronics business that has built a strong reputation within the professional audio sector. With ambitious growth plans and a target of increasing turnover significantly over the coming years, the business is looking for a commercially minded individual to help drive the next phase of expansion.

The role has arisen as part of a planned succession strategy, creating an opportunity for either an experienced technical sales professional or someone earlier in their career who already has a foundation in both sales and electronics and is looking to develop further. The business is open to different levels of experience and has a strong track record of supporting and mentoring people as they grow within the organisation.

Working across the UK and Ireland, you'll be responsible for developing existing customer relationships whilst identifying and securing new business opportunities. Whilst there is an established customer base, a major part of the role will be helping the business expand into new customers, new applications and new markets. The company has ambitious growth plans and is looking for someone who can play an active role in broadening its reach beyond its traditional sectors.

The role offers a blend of account management and business development. Existing relationships are typically long-term and consultative in nature, so success is built on trust, technical understanding and developing partnerships over time rather than quick transactional sales. At the same time, you'll be encouraged to identify new opportunities and bring fresh ideas for growth.

The products are highly specialised electronic components used in professional audio applications. This is not a consumer electronics or hi-fi environment, so an appreciation of electronics and an interest in technology will help you build credibility with customers and understand the applications you're supporting. Full product training and ongoing support will be provided.

You'll work closely with company leadership and experienced sales professionals, benefiting from significant mentoring whilst developing your commercial and technical expertise. The role offers genuine long-term career development within a growing and highly respected business.

The position is primarily field-based across the UK and Ireland, with approximately one day per week spent in the office. The company offers flexibility, quarterly commission, and either a car allowance or company vehicle depending on individual preference.

Key Skills & Experience

• Experience in sales, business development, account management or a similar customer-facing commercial role
• An understanding or appreciation of electronics through industry experience, qualifications, hobbies or personal projects
• Open to both experienced technical sales professionals and junior candidates with a foundation in electronics and sales
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Ability to understand technical products and customer requirements
• Experience developing existing customer accounts and identifying new business opportunities
• Interest in audio technology, electronics or related technical industries
• Commercial awareness and a proactive approach to sales
• Ability to travel throughout the UK and Ireland
• Full UK driving licence
