We are recruiting for an industry-leading manufacturer of circuit protection and power distribution solutions used across some of the world's most demanding engineering and industrial environments.

With over 75 years of innovation, more than 1,400 employees worldwide, operations in over 60 countries, and a reputation for engineering excellence, our client supplies market-leading electrical and electronic protection products into sectors including vehicle manufacturing, automation, process control, industrial engineering, telecommunications, and data centres.

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a financially stable, family-owned technology business that continues to invest heavily in innovation, product development, and long-term growth.

The Opportunity

As Area Sales Manager for the North, you will take ownership of an established territory spanning Northern England and Scotland, developing relationships with existing customers whilst identifying and converting new business opportunities across key target sectors.

This is not a transactional sales role.

You will be working with customers on technically driven projects, often involving long sales cycles, high-value opportunities, and consultative solution selling. The position offers a genuine mix of account management and new business development, allowing you to build long-term partnerships while driving sustainable revenue growth.

You'll be supported by a highly experienced internal sales and customer service team, whilst benefiting from comprehensive product and industry training both in the UK and internationally.

Key Responsibilities

Manage and grow an established Northern sales territory
Achieve agreed sales, revenue and market development objectives
Develop relationships with OEMs, manufacturers, engineering businesses, distributors and system integrators
Identify, qualify and convert new business opportunities
Manage the full sales cycle from lead generation through to order placement
Build and maintain a strong sales pipeline of current and future opportunities
Deliver a consultative sales approach to understand customer requirements and provide effective technical solutions
Conduct regular customer visits across the region
Maintain accurate CRM records and opportunity forecasts
Produce visit reports and attend sales meetings
What We're Looking For

We are keen to speak with candidates who have experience selling electrical, electronic or technical engineering products into industrial markets.

Ideal Experience

Proven B2B technical sales experience
Experience within electrical, electronic or electro-mechanical products
Track record of winning new business and developing accounts
Experience selling into OEMs, manufacturers or industrial customers
Strong commercial and relationship-building skills
Consultative and solution-led sales approach
Self-motivated and comfortable working autonomously
Strong communication and presentation skills
A formal electrical or electronic qualification is beneficial but not essential. Equally, candidates with apprenticeship training or hands-on technical experience are encouraged to apply.

What's In It For You?

£45,000 - £65,000 basic salary depending on experience
Realistic bonus potential of £10,000 - £14,000+
Company car
Private healthcare
Pension scheme
Gym membership
38 days holiday (including bank holidays)
Comprehensive product training
International exposure and development opportunities
Home-based role with autonomy and flexibility
Opportunity to join a respected global engineering brand with significant growth plans
