Instrumentation & Measurement Technology
Location: Manchester, with international travel
Salary: Up to £50,000 base plus benefits and bonus
Full-time
Ready to combine your engineering knowledge with your B2B sales experience?
We're recruiting on behalf of a specialist engineering technology business looking for a commercially driven sales professional to help grow its UK and international customer base.
This is an opportunity to move further into consultative technical sales: understanding how customers operate, identifying their challenges and working with engineering colleagues to recommend the right solution.

It's a hands-on role in a small, relaxed team, with scope to influence how the business approaches sales, marketing and customer engagement. As the business grows, there is potential to take on broader commercial leadership responsibilities.
What you'll do
- Identify and approach prospective customers across UK and international markets.
- Develop new and existing business through targeted outreach, networking, existing marketing leads and industry events.
- Understand customers' applications, technical requirements and commercial priorities.
- Work with engineering colleagues to deliver product presentations, demonstrations and proposals.
- Manage opportunities from initial enquiry through quotation, negotiation and order.
- Build relationships with end users, equipment manufacturers and potential distribution partners.
- Maintain an accurate sales pipeline and provide practical forecasts and market feedback.
- Help shape marketing activity, product positioning and routes into new markets.
- Represent the business at customer sites, international trade shows and product demonstrations.
