This is an excellent opportunity for a technically minded sales professional who enjoys understanding customer requirements, working with technical specifications and drawings, and building strong commercial relationships.
The business specialises in the manufacture of cold-drawn copper tube and operates within the non-ferrous metals sector.
The Role
This is a varied technical sales position combining new business development with existing account management. The role can be field-based, with the focus firmly on winning and developing business rather than being office-based.
Key responsibilities will include:

- Understanding customer requirements, technical specifications and engineering drawings
- Providing technically credible solutions to customers
- Preparing and understanding product costings and commercial structures

About You
We are looking for someone with a technical sales background who can confidently understand specifications, drawings and technical products.

You will ideally have:
- Experience in technical sales or a technically focused commercial role
- The ability to read and understand technical drawings/specifications
- An understanding of product costing and commercial structures
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- A proactive approach to new business development
- The confidence to work independently in a field-based environment
- A genuine interest in understanding the technical side of the products you sell
Experience with copper, brass, copper-nickel, non-ferrous metals or yellow metals would be advantageous, but is not essential as full product and industry knowledge can be developed. xiskglj
