Job Description

Account Manager (Technical / Construction / Engineering)

WE Talent are proud to be partnering with a fast-growing and highly respected business who are looking to appoint an Account Manager to join their commercial team.

This is a consultative, commercially focused role where you will take ownership of incoming opportunities, working with a mix of existing, lapsed and new clients to convert enquiries into long-term business.

This role sits between sales, account management and estimating - ideal for someone who enjoys building relationships, developing opportunities over time, and playing an active role in winning and growing business.

Sales cycles are typically 6 weeks to 12 months, so this role requires a proactive, relationship-led individual who is comfortable nurturing opportunities and driving them through to conversion.

The role

  * Managing incoming enquiries and warm leads via phone, email, and online platforms

  * Taking ownership of a portfolio of existing, lapsed and new clients

  * Proactively developing relationships to win new business and grow existing accounts

  * Delivering presentations to introduce the business and its offering

  * Meeting clients both virtually and face-to-face across the UK

  * Attending client meetings regularly (typically several times per month, up to once or twice per week depending on projects)

  * Understanding client requirements and identifying commercial opportunities

  * Producing and supporting quotations and estimates alongside internal teams

  * Liaising closely with design, operations, and wider commercial teams

  * Managing, reviewing and progressing quotes through to conversion

  * Re-pricing and refining proposals where required

  * Maintaining CRM accuracy and pipeline visibility

  * Supporting tenders, proposals, and client presentations

  * Contributing to long-term account growth and retention

About you

We are looking for someone who is:

  * Experienced in B2B sales, account management, or client relationship roles

  * Comfortable working in a technical, construction, engineering or manufacturing environment

  * Commercially minded, with a natural ability to spot opportunities and convert business

  * Confident building relationships both remotely and face-to-face across the UK

  * Proactive and driven, with a strong sense of ownership over your pipeline

  * Organised and detail-focused, able to manage multiple opportunities at different stages

  * Confident using Excel and CRM systems

  * Able to interpret or work alongside technical / site / CAD drawings (desirable, not essential)

  * A collaborative team player who works well across departments

  * A full UK driving licence is required.

Why this role?

This is an opportunity to take on a broad, visible role within a growing business.

You’ll work collaboratively with multiple areas of the business, gain exposure to a wide range of projects, and play a key role in driving client relationships and growth.

If you enjoy working in a fast-paced environment and want to be part of a supportive, growing team – we’d love to hear from you.
