We're working with an established European manufacturer of commercial heating and cooling equipment that is looking to appoint a technically accomplished individual to strengthen its presence across the West Midlands.
The business manufactures a range of commercial chillers, high-capacity heat pumps and associated HVAC equipment, supplying solutions for large commercial buildings, industrial applications and complex heating and cooling projects.
This is an opportunity for someone with a strong technical understanding of commercial HVAC systems who wants to apply that expertise in a customer-facing, commercially focused position.
You don't necessarily need to come from a sales background.
We're equally interested in speaking with Applications Engineers, Mechanical Design Engineers, Technical Support Engineers and other HVAC specialists who understand equipment selection and system design and would be interested in developing a career in technical sales.
The Role
Working directly with mechanical engineering consultants, contractors and other project stakeholders, you'll provide technical guidance throughout the equipment selection and specification process.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Engaging with M&E consultants to understand the heating and cooling requirements of commercial projects.
- Reviewing mechanical schematics, system designs, cooling loads and project specifications.
- Advising on the selection and application of commercial chillers, heat pumps and associated HVAC equipment.
- Supporting equipment sizing, hydraulic calculations and technical quotations.
- Developing relationships with consulting engineers and identifying new project opportunities.
- Working with internal technical teams to develop suitable equipment solutions.
- Following projects through design, specification, tendering and eventual equipment procurement.
- Developing the company's presence across the West Midlands.
What We're Looking For
Technical understanding is the priority. Commercial skills can be developed.
Ideally, you'll have:
- Experience with commercial chillers, large heat pumps, chilled water systems or similar hydronic HVAC equipment.
- A sound understanding of mechanical building services systems, including equipment selection, flow rates, temperatures and system design.
- The ability to interpret mechanical drawings and technical specifications.
- Experience supporting consultants, contractors or customers with technical HVAC applications.
- Confidence discussing engineering solutions and explaining technical information clearly.
- An interest in developing customer relationships and taking greater commercial responsibility.
You could currently be working as an:
- Applications Engineer
- Mechanical Design Engineer
- HVAC Technical Support Engineer
- Technical Sales Engineer
- Chiller or Heat Pump Applications Specialist
- Project Engineer within commercial heating or cooling
Previous sales experience would be advantageous, but it is not essential.
What's on Offer?
- £50,000 to £70,000 basic salary, depending on experience.
- Performance-related bonus of approximately £15,000.
- Car allowance of approximately £5,000 to £6,000.
- Manufacturer-backed technical support and product training.
- Opportunity to develop commercially while continuing to use your engineering expertise.
- Long-term career development within an established international business.
Interested?
If you're technically strong in commercial heating and cooling and would like to explore a role that combines engineering with commercial responsibility, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.
