Description

We are recruiting for a Sales Executive to join a well-established engineering components manufacturer in LS28, who supply high-quality industrial products across the UK and internationally.
Following a recent acquisition by a large international group, the business is entering a significant phase of investment and expansion, creating an excellent opportunity for a Sales Executive to join a growing sales team and contribute to ongoing business growth.
The Role
This Sales Executive role combines new business development with account management, with around 60% of activity focused on warm, lapsed, and existing customers.
The Sales Executive will:

  • Generate new business opportunities through proactive outbound sales
  • Re-engage existing and lapsed customers
  • Manage the full sales cycle from initial contact to order
  • Build long-term relationships within engineering and manufacturing sectors
  • Develop and maintain a strong sales pipeline using CRM systems
  • Support revenue growth and margin improvement through effective negotiation
  • Promote a range of technical and engineered products

This is primarily an office-based Sales Executive role, with occasional customer visits.
About You
The ideal Sales Executive will have:

  • Experience in B2B sales / business development
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • Confidence engaging with decision-makers
  • Commercial awareness and good organisational skills
  • Experience using CRM systems and sales tools

Experience selling technical, engineering, or industrial products is advantageous but not essential.
Salary & Benefits

  • Basic salary up to £36,000
  • Quarterly bonus (up to 15%)
  • 20 days holiday, rising to 25 with service
  • Pension scheme & life assurance
  • Clear progression opportunities

Why Apply?
This Sales Executive opportunity offers the chance to join a business at an exciting stage following international acquisition and expansion. The Sales Executive will play a key role in driving growth while building a long-term career in a supportive and ambitious environment.
