  • Build strong relationships with key customers, prospects and industry stakeholders.
  • Manage sales pipelines, forecasting and CRM activity.
  • Drive digital marketing initiatives to increase brand awareness and generate qualified leads.
  • Monitor market trends, competitor activity and emerging opportunities.
  • Represent the business at customer meetings, industry events and exhibitions.
  • Work closely with senior leadership to support the company’s long‑term growth objectives.

About You

  • Proven track record of delivering sales growth within a manufacturing or engineering environment.
  • Experience selling outsourced manufacturing solutions, engineering services or technical products.
  • Strong business development and customer acquisition expertise.
  • Experience leading and developing commercial teams.
  • Background within industrial sectors such as aerospace, medical, defence, rail, power generation or similar.
  • Mechanical engineering knowledge would be advantageous.

Personal Profile

  • Commercially driven and results focused.
  • Strong relationship builder with excellent communication skills.
  • Strategic thinker with a hands‑on approach.
  • Confident decision‑maker with strong commercial judgement.
  • Highly organised, proactive and resilient.
  • Effective leader with the ability to inspire and influence others.

Package

  • Performance‑related bonus
  • Benefits package
  • Senior leadership opportunity within a successful and growing manufacturing business

1492 Ltd and its clients promote a policy of equal opportunities. Our policy is to treat job applicants and employees in the same way regardless of age, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, race, ethnic origin, religion, colour or disability.
