About Us
Bulk Automation specialises in the supply of process and packaging machinery, including robotic automation systems, to a wide range of industries across the UK. Due to continued growth, we are looking to recruit an experienced Sales Representative to join our expanding team.
The Role
We are looking for a confident and motivated salesperson who enjoys being out on the road, meeting customers and developing new business.
The role will involve travelling throughout the UK to visit existing and prospective customers, identify new opportunities and promote Bulk Automation's range of machinery and automation solutions.
You will be responsible for building relationships with customers, generating new leads and taking opportunities from the initial conversation through to quotation and sale.
This is a field-based sales role, so being comfortable with regular travel and face-to-face customer meetings is essential.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop new business across the UK by proactively identifying potential customers, making initial contact through cold calling and other sales activity, arranging meetings and creating new sales opportunities within relevant industries.
- Build and maintain strong customer relationships by regularly visiting prospective and existing customers, understanding their requirements and identifying opportunities where Bulk Automation's machinery and automation solutions could benefit their business.
- Manage the sales process from initial enquiry through to sale, including customer meetings, maintaining regular communication and working with the internal sales and engineering teams to ensure the customer's requirements are understood.
- Represent Bulk Automation in the marketplace by attending customer visits, trade shows, exhibitions and industry events, developing new contacts and helping to increase awareness of the company and its products.
- Manage your own sales activity and pipeline, including planning customer visits, keeping accurate records of leads and opportunities, providing regular feedback to the team and working towards agreed sales targets and objectives.
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.
Desired Skills & Attributes
- Previous experience in B2B, field sales or business development, ideally within an industrial, manufacturing, engineering or machinery environment.
- A confident, outgoing personality with the ability to build rapport quickly and develop strong relationships with customers.
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with the confidence to speak to everyone from managers and production teams to company directors.
- A proactive approach to sales, with the confidence to make cold calls, arrange meetings and actively seek out new business rather than relying solely on incoming enquiries.
- Self-motivated and organised, with the ability to manage your own diary, plan customer visits and work independently.
- Comfortable with regular UK travel and spending a significant amount of time visiting customers.
- Full UK driving licence.
- A genuine interest in learning about industrial machinery and automation. Previous technical knowledge is beneficial but not essential.
