Job Description
Area Sales Manager — Materials Handling Equipment
Up to £40,000 basic | OTE: £65,000 Year 1, £80,000 Year 2
The Company
Join a market-leading manufacturer of material handling equipment that consistently sets the benchmark for product quality and performance. As part of a highly successful Scottish sales team led by an inspirational Scottish manager, you'll sell industry-leading capital equipment and solutions to warehouse, logistics and manufacturing customers across Edinburgh, Fife and the Borders.
This is an exceptional opportunity for a new-business focused salesperson to build an outstanding territory with full manufacturer backing, structured training and clear progression — all while representing what many customers describe as the best product on the market.
The Role
* Territory: Edinburgh, Fife & Borders (field-based role)
* Focus: New business acquisition and growing market share across warehousing, logistics and manufacturing accounts
* Activities: prospecting, cold outreach, face-to-face meetings and product demonstrations, solution selling, quoting and closing deals, and collaborating with service/support teams to ensure excellent customer onboarding and retention
* Target-driven role with strong management support and clear performance milestones for accelerated earnings
What we’re looking for
* Any B2B sales background with a strong focus on acquiring new business (field, corporate, or inside sales)
* Highly motivated, resilient hunter mentality — you enjoy prospecting and turning opportunities into closed business
* Car salespeople/B2C sales people looking to move into B2B sales are strongly encouraged to apply — transferable skills such as consultative selling, negotiation and target focus are valued
* Strong communication and relationship-building skills; confident presenting to decision-makers
* Able to work autonomously across a geographically spread patch and manage your own diary
What you’ll get
* Competitive basic up to £40,000 plus a very achievable OTE of £65,000 in year 1 and £80,000 in year 2 with company car and big company benefits
* Work in a successful, motivated Scottish team under an inspirational manager who invests in your development
* The chance to sell a market-leading product with real technical and commercial advantages that make closing new business easier
* Structured onboarding and ongoing manufacturer training to accelerate your success
