Technical Sales Manager

This opportunity would suit a commercially driven technical sales professional who understands how power-distribution projects are specified, sold and delivered.

You are likely to have:

• Previous experience selling Busway, Busbar, Busbar Trunking Systems or closely related low-voltage power-distribution solutions.
• Preferably a strong understanding of electrical distribution within industrial, commercial, mission-critical or infrastructure environments.
• Experience working with electrical contractors, M&E contractors, consultants, EPCs, system integrators, distributors or end users.
• The ability to understand technical drawings, specifications, schedules and project documentation.
• A consultative sales approach, with the confidence to discuss both technical and commercial requirements.
• A proven track record of developing new business and converting high-value, project-led opportunities.
• Experience managing extended sales cycles involving multiple technical and commercial stakeholders.
• Strong presentation, negotiation and relationship-building skills.
• The ability to create structure and momentum within a developing product area.
• A high level of personal accountability, organisation and commercial awareness.
• The confidence to operate independently while collaborating effectively with colleagues across sales, engineering, projects, procurement and operations.
• A willingness to travel regularly throughout the UK and, where required, into Europe.
• A relevant electrical or engineering qualification, although strong industry experience may be equally valuable.

What Will Make You Successful?

The successful person will be someone who combines technical credibility with a genuine new-business mentality.

Success in this position will not come solely from managing existing accounts. You will need to actively create opportunities, build market awareness and develop relationships in areas where R&M has the capability to grow.

You should enjoy the challenge of taking a proposition to market, establishing a network and becoming recognised as a trusted technical partner. In return, you will have the opportunity to influence the direction of the division and play a central role in its long-term success.Why Join?
