Sales Director | Energy & Infrastructure Technology
Northern Ireland | UK & International remit
Competitive base + uncapped commission + bonus + car allowance
We are working with a growing Northern Ireland-based technology and engineering business looking to appoint a Sales Director to lead its next phase of commercial growth.
This is a senior, hands-on opportunity with a significant amount of autonomy. Rather than inheriting an established sales organisation, you will initially take direct responsibility for developing and closing high-value B2B opportunities while building the commercial function around you.
The opportunity:
- Own the full sales cycle from prospecting through to negotiation and close
- Develop and win high-value capital equipment and technical solution sales
- Build relationships with major commercial and infrastructure customers
- Lead complex proposals, tenders and commercial negotiations
- Recruit and develop the internal sales team as the business scales
- Build a national agent, distributor and channel partner network
- Help shape the company's wider go-to-market and marketing strategy
- Identify opportunities for expansion across the UK, Ireland and international markets
- Work directly with the senior leadership team with considerable influence over commercial strategy
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We're looking for:
- A strong track record in B2B sales of high-value capital equipment or technical solutions
- Evidence of personally developing and closing significant commercial deals
- Experience building or leading successful sales teams
- Experience working with distributors, agents or channel partners
- Strong commercial, negotiation and relationship-building skills
- Confidence navigating long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
- An entrepreneurial mindset and the appetite to build a commercial function rather than simply inherit one
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience within energy, electrical infrastructure, EV, renewables, power systems, industrial technology or a related engineering market would be highly relevant.
This would particularly suit a commercially ambitious sales leader who still enjoys being close to customers and deals but wants the opportunity to build and lead a wider commercial operation.
If that sounds like you, or you'd like to hear more confidentially, please get in touch.
