A Rare Opportunity to Build Something Special
Are you an experienced CNC professional looking to move into technical sales, or an established Sales Engineer ready for a fresh challenge?
We're recruiting on behalf of an ambitious engineering business that is investing heavily in its future growth. This is a genuine opportunity to join at an exciting stage of the company's journey, where you'll have the autonomy to shape the role, influence future growth, and become a key part of the business.
Rather than stepping into an established territory with rigid processes, you'll have the chance to make the position your own, build long-term customer relationships, and play a significant role in expanding the company's presence within the manufacturing and engineering sector.
If you're driven, commercially minded, and passionate about engineering, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
The Role
As CNC Sales Engineer, you'll be responsible for identifying new business opportunities while developing existing customer relationships across the engineering and manufacturing industry.
