Job description

Technical Business Development Manager - Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS)

Field / Remote - East UK Territory (Cambridge, Luton, Stevenage, Peterborough, up to North East & Scotland)

60,000 basic + car allowance + Uncapped Commission (OTE 100K+) + Private Health

Ready to shift gears and grow your career in one of the UK's most innovative EMS environments?

We are partnering with a leading Contract Electronics Manufacturer (CEM) to recruit a high-impact Technical Business Development Manager to drive strategic growth across the East of the UK - from East London through Cambridge, the Midlands, up to the North East and Scotland.

This is not a desk-bound sales job. It's a consultative, highly field-based role where you will meet engineers, buyers and technical leaders face-to-face to unearth opportunities for PCBA, cable assembly, box build and more.

You will be responsible for both:

Developing new business from cold and warm leads within high-potential verticals, and

Growing revenue from assigned existing accounts by identifying untapped opportunity and converting new projects.

Typical deal sizes range from 100K to 500K+, with sales cycles averaging six months, so you will need strong pipeline management and long-game commercial instinct.

Whether you're a rising star (Applications Engineer ready for BD) or a seasoned EMS sales professional, this role offers autonomy, unlimited earning potential, and clear progression.

The Company

This international EMS business serves OEMs across the UK and Europe. With manufacturing operations in the UK and Europe, they deliver a full range of services from NPI to high-volume production.

Their core offerings include:

PCBA & Cable Assembly

Overmoulding & Box Build

Product Realisation & Engineering Support

Conformal Coating, Potting & Encapsulation

They work across high-growth verticals such as:

Industrial Electronics

Robotics & Automation

Smart Home Technology

IoT & Capital Equipment

Scientific & Non-certified Medical Equipment

The Opportunity

Reporting to the International Sales Director, you'll:

Own a targeted territory (East UK) with mapped-out industry clusters

Grow revenue within assigned house accounts via a 'two-in-a-box' model alongside internal Account Managers

Win new OEM clients through field-based engagement and consultative selling

Engage both procurement and engineering decision-makers

Build relationships across multiple stakeholders and nurture long-term account growth

Manage 6-month sales cycles with typical deal sizes of 100K- 500K+

Use modern tools: ACT! CRM, EES quoting system, and Rockpool/Apollo data

You'll be on the road 2-3 days a week, backed by internal marketing and pre-qualification support - no cold-list slog.

Who We're Looking For

You might be:

An Applications Engineer or Field Engineer with strong commercial instincts, now ready to move into business development

A Business Development Manager or Sales Engineer from EMS, CEM, PCB, cable, or box build environments

A Component Sales Specialist (connectors, semiconductors) with knowledge of the value chain and a consultative style

You'll need:

Strong knowledge of electronics manufacturing: PCBA, cable, BOMs, connectors

A blend of technical fluency and commercial confidence

Emotional intelligence to navigate buyers and engineers alike

Hunger to win, energy to travel, and credibility with OEM customers

The business is open to both high-potential and seasoned candidates - but what matters most is your technical credibility and proactive mindset.

What's on Offer

60,000 base salary

car allowance

Uncapped commission

o 1.5% on new customers

o 0.5% on growth within existing accounts (both paid for 2 years)

Private health cover

Career progression into senior Business Development or leadership roles

Why This Role?

Uncapped earnings in a-resilient, innovation-led sector

Technical, value-led sales - not transactional flogging

Assigned existing accounts to grow, plus exciting new business territory

Opportunity to shape how new growth accounts are won and expanded

Join a collaborative, ambitious, business on the rise

Apply now to take your technical sales career into its next chapter.

Field-based, high-impact, and full of opportunity.
