This role is designed for someone who understands machining from the shop floor and wants more.
If you are currently a CNC Programmer, Setter, Manufacturing Engineer, or Workshop Manager and enjoy the technical side of tooling, but want greater earning potential, autonomy, and career progression, this is your opportunity to step into technical sales properly.
You will not be thrown in unprepared. You will be trained.
Why This Role Is Attractive
You will
- Move from the workshop into a commercial, field based role
- Represent premium, high precision tooling solutions used in serious machining environments
- Receive structured product training and hands on technical development
- Shadow experienced senior sales professionals
- Spend time at the company's German headquarters for further development
- Take ownership of a new Scottish territory with major growth potential
- Build something almost from scratch in a high opportunity market
Scotland is largely untapped for this business. The surface has only just been scratched. The growth potential is significant.
This is not territory maintenance. This is territory development.
The Business
Our client is a European market leader in high precision tool holding and a global specialist in shrinking, balancing, and presetting technology for the metal cutting industry.
Their products are used by high end manufacturers where machining accuracy, balance, and reliability are critical.
The UK is a strategic expansion market, and Scotland represents one of the strongest growth opportunities.
- What You Will Be Doing
- Developing a new Scottish territory from a home office base
- Visiting machining and manufacturing customers across Scotland
- Advising on tooling performance, optimisation, and application
- Supporting installations and delivering product training
- Working closely with senior sales colleagues during your development period
- Representing the business at exhibitions and industry events
Over time, you will transition into full ownership of your region.
What You Bring
- A hands on machining background such as CNC Programming, Setting, Manufacturing Engineering, or Workshop Management
- Strong understanding of tool clamping, milling, or metal cutting technology
- Confidence speaking with engineers and production managers
- A desire to move into a commercial role
- Drive, curiosity, and willingness to learn
Previous sales experience is not essential. Technical credibility is.
The Opportunity
This is a structured entry into technical sales within a premium engineering brand.
You will receive genuine development, exposure to international training, and the chance to build a territory with real long term earning potential.
If you understand machining and want to step beyond the workshop into a commercially focused role with progression, this is worth a conversation.
