Are you a military procurement, logistics, or capability specialist looking for the perfect civilian landing zone?
If you would like to know a bit more about this opportunity, or are considering applying, then please read the following job information.
This is not a high-pressure, cold-calling sales role. This is a leading defense technology manufacturer looking for a Defence Account Manager to act as the strategic interface between engineering teams, the MoD, and Tier 1 prime contractors.
If you understand how the MoD procures, introduces, and supports land-based equipment, this role allows you to use that "insider" knowledge to manage key relationships and shape future land defense capabilities.
This is a hybrid role with 2/3 days per week from the office near Middlesbrough and will also involve regular travel. Salary up to £50k basic plus bonus and excellent company benefits.
