Build Something New. Shape the Market. Drive Growth.

Are you a technically minded professional with a background in welding, fabrication or engineering who is ready to take the next step into sales?

We’re working with a long-established, family-run business with over 70 years of history, operating across Coventry and Solihull, to recruit a Product Sales Manager – Laser Welding & Cleaning Technology.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing technology division and take ownership of developing a brand-new product offering across the UK and Ireland. With no existing customer base or established sales strategy for this product range, you’ll have the freedom to research the market, identify new opportunities and build the business from the ground up.

The company is the main UK distributor for innovative laser machinery manufactured in Lithuania, with both laser welding and laser cleaning machines available at its Coventry site for demonstrations and customer trials.

The Opportunity

You’ll be responsible for driving sales of innovative laser welding and laser cleaning machinery, developing relationships with new customers and establishing the company's presence across a range of industries.

This is a hands-on, technical sales role where your understanding of the products and their applications will be key to winning new business. You’ll have access to the equipment, technical support and resources needed to demonstrate the technology and show customers how it can benefit their operations.

Potential markets include agriculture, automotive, vehicle restoration, aerospace, battery manufacturing, medical and general industrial manufacturing, alongside opportunities with local authorities and specialist cleaning businesses.

Support colleagues with customer requirements, product assessments and technical sales enquiries.

Attend exhibitions and industry events to build awareness, generate leads and develop new relationships.

Identify opportunities to sell associated products, including welding helmets, fume extraction equipment and protective clothing.

Monitor sales performance, report on activity and continually refine your territory plan.
