This prominent, longstanding, successful organisation is one of the major players in the production of a superb range of tools for metalwork including turning, grooving and milling. They supply tools and tooling solutions throughout Europe and in order to further strengthen their team, they require a talented Applications Engineer.
Utilising both your technical and commercial skills, you will be supporting the development of customer relationships within direct and distribution networks. Working within the sales team and reporting to the Regional Manager, you will be covering the Leeds, Harrogate and Yorkshire areas as well as the North East and should ideally live in the Leeds or Harrogate area. Supporting an Area Sales Engineer, you will be providing technical support and will be responsible for the promotion of a range of high-quality cutting tools and solutions to the Aerospace, Oil & Gas and Automotive sectors.
A strong, technical CNC background with a first class understanding of metal cutting and machining processes is essential and ideally you will have worked as a Miller, Turner, Setter or Operator.

IT literate, you’ll have first class communication and negotiation skills combined with a winning mentality. This is an excellent opportunity to progress your career both personally and professionally with a forward-thinking market leader
