Job Description:

Some technical sales roles talk about growth.

This one is actually living it.

A specialist engineering business in Kent is expanding its commercial team following sustained growth, increased international activity, and major investment into new business development across Europe.

They’re looking for a commercially driven Technical Sales Account Manager who can build relationships, win new business, and manage complex customer requirements in a fast-paced technical environment.

This is not a call-centre sales role.

You’ll be working with customers across engineering, manufacturing and scientific sectors, helping deliver tailored technical solutions rather than pushing off-the-shelf products.

The role combines:

• Account management
• Technical sales
• New business development
• International customer visits
• Trade shows and exhibitions across Europe

You’ll inherit existing accounts, but there’s a strong expectation around business development, growth and commercial activity. The business wants someone proactive. Someone who enjoys building relationships, asking questions, spotting opportunities and getting out in front of customers.

The environment itself is ambitious, collaborative and energetic. They’ve built a strong sales culture internally and performance is rewarded properly.

What they’re looking for:

• Experience within technical, engineering, manufacturing or scientific sales
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Comfortable working towards targets and KPIs
• Commercial resilience and self-motivation
• Somebody who enjoys a visible, fast-moving environment
• Interest in engineering, science or technology

What matters is attitude, communication ability and experience operating in technical or consultative sales environments.

Package includes:

• £35,000 - £40,000 basic salary
• Uncapped bonus structure
• Private healthcare
• Pension
• International travel opportunities
• Early finish Fridays

Genuine long-term progression

The business is fully office-based in near Maidstone, so this will suit somebody who enjoys being part of a collaborative sales environment rather than working remotely.
