Industry: Technical Engineering Manufacturing Package: £45,000-c£52,000p.a. + benefits. Commutable from: Manchester, Liverpool, Chester, Wigan, Runcorn, Bolton, Stockport, Northwich, Altrincham. On paper, this is an Account Manager role. In reality, it sits at the point where technical detail, customer expectation, and project delivery meet. A long-established, privately owned manufacturing group with deep capability across Europe, focused on delivering high-quality solutions into environments where performance and precision matter. In the UK, that plays out across two distinct models: Solutions engineered, project-led, technically involved Standardised fast-moving, digitally driven This role sits predominantly within the Solutions side of the business. The context. The business is in a period of investment and evolution. New machinery. Strengthened systems. Clear intent around sustainable growth. This role exists because the current incumbent will be stepping away after a long tenure. Which creates a specific opportunity: You re not inheriting a gap. You re stepping into something established with plenty of time to learn it properly before owning it. The challenge. A large proportion of the work sits within building and architectural projects. That means: Multiple stakeholders (project managers, surveyors, estimators) Technical drawings that need to be understood, not passed on Products that are rarely off the shelf It s not transactional sales and it s not purely technical either. The role sits in the middle where interpretation, coordination, and judgement matter. What this role actually requires. You need to be comfortable operating across three things at once: Customer ownership managing relationships, repeat business, expectations Technical interpretation reading drawings, understanding application, advising accordingly Internal coordination working with engineering, production, and operations to deliver Because most of the value isn t in taking an order. It s in making sure the order works. The mandate. Manage and develop an existing UK customer base Support project-based sales within the building and construction sector Produce accurate quotations (repeat and bespoke) Interpret engineering and architectural drawings to ensure correct application Provide technical guidance on products and applications Coordinate internally to ensure technical, commercial, and delivery alignment The profile. This isn t about ticking boxes. But there are some clear markers: Background in technical sales, internal sales engineering, or project sales Experience within manufacturing, production, or engineering environments Comfortable reading and interpreting technical drawings Familiar with CRM/ERP systems Able to manage customers while solving problems not just responding to requests What won t work. Purely relationship-led sales without technical grounding Strong technical individuals who don t engage commercially People who prefer clean, simple transactions over project complexity The opportunity. Join a well-established international group with strong technical credibility Be part of a UK team with deep product and market knowledge Work within a commercially-minded leadership team that provides support and direction Step into a role with built-in knowledge transfer before full ownership Contribute to a business actively investing in its future Next steps. If the role feels aligned, send us a copy of your CV and we can arrange a conversation to explore whether the environment, the expectations, and the way of working make sense for you.
