Head of Sales (Defence Markets) in England

This is a rare, but of course amazing, opportunity within Defence focused Sales. This role isn’t just about leading, growing and developing a sales team - it’s about doing all of this, and more, from near scratch. This is not a Head of Sales role where you’ll be asked to take over from someone else had done, fill old shoes, or bang your head against a wall of "we’ve always done it this way".

We make the best products in our market. We are growing the UK operation and looking to grow further from there. We need a sales leader to take charge of all business development, account management, lead generation, bid management, and RFI activities to help drive this.

This is a role for a self-starter who thrives on people, variety, and making things happen. You’ll be proactive, motivated, and entrepreneurial, comfortable working independently but equally happy collaborating and sharing knowledge to help the wider team succeed.

As Head of Sales, you’ll take the lead in driving business growth across the UK and beyond, identifying opportunities, generating leads, and winning bids that expand our market presence within the Defence and Aerospace Industry. You’ll develop and deliver smart sales strategies, backed by competitor insights and market research, while building lasting relationships with customers through exceptional service, technical expertise, and trusted advice.

From pitching at conferences to presenting tailored solutions, you’ll position TUALCOM at the forefront of GNSS, RF, and Radio Navigation technologies. You’ll also guide and inspire our sales team, supporting their professional development while ensuring disciplined use of CRM and seamless account management. Alongside this, you’ll manage bid activity from start to finish, coordinating inputs, crafting proposals, and leading submissions that secure success.

With travel mainly across the UK you’ll represent the company at events, strengthen our network, and drive the growth of our business.

What We Need From You:

We’re after someone who knows their stuff. You’ll need a proven track record in sales or business development within Aerospace & Defence, plus proven leadership credentials to inspire and manage a sales team to hit healthy growth targets. A strong technical grounding is highly beneficial, and you should be confident breaking down complex concepts for varying audiences of staff, customers and prospective clients alike.

In an ideal world, you’ll be degree-qualified in electrical, electronic, or communications engineering (or similar) with demonstrable experience working with products like GPS, GNSS, PNT, data links, electronic warfare, RF, or microwave antenna systems. Whilst this is beneficial, what we need most is someone who knows the Aerospace and Defence Market inside out, has key contacts in major players and relishes the opportunity, and challenge, of building something new.

To be open and transparent from the beginning, this role, when not at trade shows or client visits, is fully based in our Docklands offices, London E14. We also are not able to provide sponsorship for this or any other role - candidates must possess the right to work in the UK without the need for sponsorship.

Interested?

If you are looking for a role where you’ll be part of a fast-expanding, globally growing, international team that’s pushing the boundaries of RF and GNSS, then this position is for you. Our Head of Sales role at TUALCOM represents your chance to take on a senior position with real impact: driving growth, leading a talented sales team, and representing innovative products that shape the future of Defence and communications.

If you’re ambitious, technically sharp, and ready to make things happen, and hate being bored, we’d really love to hear from you. Apply now and be part of our journey.
