Packaging Machinery Sales Manager

Basic circa £65,000 + commission and benefits | North of England | Ideally M62 corridor

You know packaging machinery. You know how to win business. What would make your next move worthwhile?

Good equipment to sell, technical colleagues you can rely on and the opportunity to build something you can put your name to.

That’s the conversation we’d like to have with you.

About the company

An established manufacturer of automated packaging machinery, helping customers improve production through solutions developed around their requirements.

They’re looking for an experienced Sales Manager who enjoys getting close to customers, understanding the application and working with an engineering team to develop the right solution. Someone who can build on existing relationships while opening doors in new markets.

About the role

There are two sides to this role: developing the customers who already know the business and earning the trust of those who don’t.

If you enjoy the combination of engineering, relationships and commercial judgement that makes machinery sales rewarding, there’s plenty here to get your teeth into.

You’ll:

• Develop existing customer relationships and identify opportunities for further business.
• Build relationships with new customers and explore opportunities in new sectors.
• Work with engineering colleagues to understand requirements and develop suitable machinery solutions.
• Guide projects from the first conversation through to an order.
• Travel to meet customers and develop your territory.

About you

You already sell packaging machinery and have a track record of winning business and developing accounts.

You’re comfortable talking with production and engineering teams, asking the questions that uncover a requirement and explaining why your proposed solution makes commercial sense.

You also know that developing a new market takes more than a few introductions. It takes curiosity, persistence and the discipline to keep opportunities moving.

You’ll be based in the north of England, ideally along the M62 corridor.

Why consider this move?

The opportunity to bring your experience to an established machinery manufacturer, contribute to its growth and see the results of the relationships you build.

For someone who enjoys developing business as much as managing it, that’s a worthwhile next step.

Package

Circa £65,000 base salary, plus commission and benefits.
