A sector-leading electronic technology company is seeking an experienced Technical Sales Manager to join their ‘Sensors’ products team. This is a UK-wide sales role where you will be managing a small sales team, supporting existing customers, and working on potential new ones. Your home location is open, but the ability to use the motorway network with ease is required, so living in central England would be ideal.

The days of visiting multiple companies face-to-face each week have changed, and more is now completed by telephone, emails, and virtual meetings, but face-to-face meetings are still held when needed. This is a technical solution-backed sales process rather than just product selling, and you will be the technical interface between the customers and the engineering, manufacturing, and project management departments.
