Job description

Overview

We are looking for a Technical Sales Manager who can work autonomously and take real ownership of developing the sales function. This is not a back-office support role - it is a proactive, hands-on position where you will be expected to drive results, generate leads, and manage the sales pipeline independently.

The company is a specialist in precision engineering, tool making, and press tooling. For over 50 years, they’ve partnered with leading manufacturers across industries like F1 & motorsport, automotive, aerospace, military, construction and electronics. Their reputation is built on bespoke craftsmanship, high quality precision and personalised customer service.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as the primary point of contact for customer enquiries, building strong, professional relationships.
• Prepare and issue accurate quotations and estimates, drawing on your technical/engineering knowledge where appropriate.
• Take full ownership of managing the sales pipeline - from lead generation and qualification through to order processing and account management.
• Proactively seek out and develop new business opportunities through networking, prospecting, and follow-ups.
• Maintain and update the CRM system with accurate sales data and customer interactions.
• Liaise closely with engineering and production teams to ensure customer requirements are met.
• Support the continuous improvement of our sales processes, helping to shape and build out the sales function.

Skills & Experience (Essential)

• Proven ability to work independently and deliver results without close supervision.
• Experience in technical sales, sales support, or account management.
• Strong organisational skills, able to manage multiple enquiries and priorities effectively.
• Confident in CRM usage and pipeline management.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfortable with lead generation and winning new business.
• Strong numerical and analytical skills for preparing quotations.
• Background in engineering, manufacturing, or other technical industries.
• Previous experience preparing quotations or estimates for technical projects.
• Familiarity with engineering processes and terminology.
