We're supporting an established UK manufacturing group with the appointment of a Head of Sales to lead the commercial development of one of its key operating businesses.
Operating nationally, the business manufactures and distributes specialist engineered products used across highways, transport infrastructure, public spaces and the wider built environment. Its portfolio includes a range of fabricated metal products, safety solutions and associated infrastructure equipment supplied to contractors, distributors and end users.
Following recent changes within the wider group, there is a significant opportunity for an experienced commercial leader to take ownership of sales performance, develop the existing team and establish a more proactive approach to business development.
Historically, the business has benefited from strong inbound enquiries and established customer relationships. The next phase is about building on that foundation, developing new opportunities and driving sustainable, profitable growth.
The opportunity:
- Lead and develop an established, geographically dispersed sales team of around 10 people.
- Shift the commercial approach from predominantly reactive sales towards proactive business development and account management.
- Identify opportunities to grow market share across existing and new customer segments.
- Develop a more structured approach to sales pipelines, tenders, forecasting and commercial performance.
- Work closely with the wider leadership team to develop and deliver an ambitious growth strategy.
- Take ownership of sales performance, ensuring revenue growth is supported by strong commercial margins.
We're particularly interested in speaking with established sales leaders from manufacturers and distributors of infrastructure products, street furniture, highway equipment, fabricated metal products or other specialist products supplied into construction and public infrastructure projects.
This is an opportunity to take real ownership of the commercial direction of an established business, with the support of a wider group and considerable scope to influence its next stage of growth.
