Vehicle & Specialist Applications Sales Executive
Job Description:
Are you technically minded with a passion for vehicles and specialist applications? We are looking for someone who wants to build a career in technical sales, helping customers identify the right power and climate control solutions for their individual requirements. Our product portfolio includes some of the industry’s leading brands covering areas such as generators, air-conditioning, power electronics and associated systems, supplied into a wide range of specialist vehicles and mobile applications.
The ideal candidate will have an interest in vehicle onboard systems, engineering, or specialist applications, with the ability to understand customer requirements and develop practical, tailored solutions. Hands-on experience with vehicles, electrical systems, engineering, or a related technical environment would be advantageous but is not essential.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with enthusiasm, drive, and a positive problem-solving approach who wants to develop their career in a technical sales environment. The successful candidate will initially work alongside our experienced sales team, gaining product and industry knowledge before taking increasing responsibility for the Vehicle & Specialist Applications sector.
Full product training will be provided, although a basic technical understanding is required.
