Due to our rapid growth in our export business we are looking to recruit a highly motivated and enthusiastic French speaking Export Development Manager who will be required to develop and increase sales within the international automotive wholesale markets. Reporting directly to the Head of Export Sales, this position is open to both UK and International applicants, although a territory based candidate would be preferred.
This role will focus on generating sales growth from our extensive range of Engine Components, Steering & Suspension components & Transmission Components within the automotive and engine wholesale sectors. A tenacious and enthusiastic approach towards winning incremental business with both new and existing customers will quickly develop sales within this sector. Extensive international travel throughout the territory is a key requirement; therefore, this role requires flexibility in terms of travel arrangements. Although working within a distant management system you will become part of a Sales Team and required to work closely with other members of the team.
