Position Type: Full-time, Permanent
Ready to plug into a global market? We aren’t looking for a standard account manager who wants to sit at a desk all day. We are looking for a high-energy, autonomous Sales Manager to own and expand our international "Cable" segment. We manufacture high-quality, technically specified nonwoven materials that keep the world connected. If you’ve ever wanted to be the driving force behind major international supply chains, positioning specialized solutions to top-tier manufacturers of high-voltage, offshore, and subsea cables, this is your arena. Based out of our Croydon office, this is a standalone, high-impact role reporting directly to the Director. You’ll have full autonomy to hunt new business and manage strategic global accounts.
The Mission (What you’ll actually be doing):
- Own the Strategy: Design and execute the annual sales plan to expand our global market share.
- Hunt & Nurture: Identify new market potentials, map out international OEMs and cable manufacturers, and build rock-solid, long-term commercial relationships.
- Close the Deals: Lead high-level commercial and technical negotiations, from the initial pitch right through to final contracts and pricing strategies.
- Be the Expert: Advise clients on bespoke material solutions, matching our specialized product specs to their complex engineering requirements.
What you bring to the table:
- The Right Blend: A degree in Business with a technical mindset, or a Technical/Engineering degree with a sharp commercial edge.
- Proven Track Record: Several years of experience in international technical sales or business development for industrial products. (If you already know the cable or subsea industry, you're at the top of our list).
- An Entrepreneurial Spirit: This is an individual contributor role. You need to be a self-starter who thrives on autonomy, loves the thrill of the chase, and doesn't need hand-holding.
- World-Class Communication: Flawless English communication skills and the confidence to negotiate with stakeholders globally.
What’s in it for you?
- Base Salary: £50,000 per annum.
- Bonus: A bonus that rewards your direct impact on revenue growth.
- Autonomy: No micromanagement. You own your pipeline, your strategy, and your results.
- Support: Backed by a stellar internal Customer Services team to handle order processing and logistics, leaving you free to focus on closing deals.
