What if your next sales role wasn't really about selling?
What if, instead, you became a trusted advisor helping manufacturers, logistics companies and warehouses unlock hidden capacity, improve productivity and create more efficient operations?
We're partnering with a rapidly growing UK manufacturing and engineering business that is undergoing an exciting transformation. Backed by ambitious leadership and a culture built around continuous improvement, innovation and operational excellence, the company is redefining what success looks like within its sector.
This is a unique opportunity to join a business that doesn't simply supply products - it helps customers solve real operational challenges and achieve measurable business improvements.
The Opportunity
This is not a traditional business development role.
You won't be expected to push products, compete on price or follow a scripted sales process.
Instead, you'll work directly with customers to understand how their operations function, identify inefficiencies and develop tailored solutions that help them improve performance.
If you're naturally curious, enjoy solving problems and thrive on building long-term customer relationships, this role offers a genuinely rewarding career path.
What You'll Be Doing
Developing new business opportunities across manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, retail and distribution sectors.
Meeting prospective customers to understand their operations, challenges and future plans.
Conducting site visits and assessing workflows, storage systems and operational layouts.
Identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, productivity and space utilisation.
Collaborating with technical and design teams to create tailored customer solutions.
Presenting recommendations that clearly demonstrate operational and commercial value.
Building trusted relationships with decision-makers and key stakeholders.
Managing opportunities from initial enquiry through to project completion.
Maintaining a healthy sales pipeline and delivering against growth targets.
Representing the business professionally within the market.
What We're Looking For
We're far more interested in attitude, commercial instinct and curiosity than a specific industry background.
You may currently be working in:
Business Development
Account Management
Solution Selling
Technical Sales
Manufacturing
Logistics
Supply Chain
You'll likely bring:
Experience in business development, consultative sales or solution-based selling.
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
A proactive approach to generating and developing opportunities.
Strong commercial awareness and confidence engaging with senior decision-makers.
The ability to identify customer challenges and uncover improvement opportunities.
A genuine interest in how businesses operate and how performance can be improved.
Strong problem-solving and critical-thinking abilities.
A growth mindset and desire to continuously learn and develop.
Why Join?
Join a business experiencing significant growth and transformation.
Be part of a culture built around continuous improvement and operational excellence.
Work alongside experienced leaders who are passionate about developing people.
Build expertise in a specialist, solution-led industry.
Enjoy genuine career progression opportunities as the business continues to expand.
Make a tangible difference to customers by helping them improve efficiency and performance.
Work across a diverse range of industries and customer environments.
Who Will Thrive Here?
This role is perfect for someone who:
Loves asking questions and understanding how things work.
Gets energised by solving operational and commercial challenges.
Enjoys visiting factories, warehouses and industrial environments.
Wants to become a trusted expert rather than a traditional salesperson.
Is motivated by helping customers achieve meaningful improvements.
Wants to be part of a business with ambition, purpose and a compelling growth story.
