About the Role

We are offering an exciting opportunity to join a fast-growing business that manufactures a comprehensive range of Control and Automation components.

This role is ideal for someone looking to progress their career into an external sales position within the electrical and automation industry. You will be responsible for working closely with an established network of electrical wholesale customers, promoting and selling Point of Sale solutions directly within branch environments.

You will play a key role in strengthening existing relationships, driving sales performance, and identifying new opportunities to grow the foundations already in place. This is a field-based role suited to someone who enjoys being customer-facing and making a visible impact on business growth.

The position also offers strong long-term career prospects, with the opportunity to progress into an Industrial Sales role, working with OEMs and panel builders at specification level, should you wish to do so.

Proven experience in external sales, ideally within the electrical wholesale sector

*

A solid understanding of the electrical, control, or automation market

*

A proactive and driven approach, with the hunger and ambition to exceed targets

*

Strong relationship-building skills and confidence working face-to-face with customers

*

The ability to identify and develop new sales opportunities

*

A self-motivated individual who enjoys working independently while contributing to wider team success

*

Desire to grow and develop within a fast-paced, expanding business
