Job Description
Area Sales Manager – Aerospace & Defence Electronics (Technical Sales) We are recruiting an Area Sales Manager / Technical Sales Manager on behalf of a long-established European manufacturer of high-reliability engineered components and subsystems supplied into Aerospace & Defence applications.
This is a high-autonomy, technical sales role focused on developing business with major aerospace & defence OEMs and systems integrators. The position combines account development and new business, operating early in the design-in lifecycle to influence engineering decisions that lead to long-term supply.
If you enjoy selling complex engineered solutions rather than catalogue products, and you thrive on building long-term technical relationships, this is an exceptional opportunity.
Key Responsibilities
*
Develop and grow sales with Aerospace & Defence customers across the UK (primary) and Northern Europe (secondary)
*
Build strong relationships with engineering, programme and procurement teams
*
Identify and convert new design-in opportunities within target accounts
*
Manage and develop existing customers to secure long-term revenue
*
Work closely with internal technical experts to support customer requirements
*
Maintain accurate reporting, visit plans and sales pipeline forecasts
Candidate Profile
We are looking for a candidate who is both technical and commercial, with the credibility to engage engineering stakeholders and the drive to win new business.
Ideal experience includes:
*
Technical sales into Aerospace / Defence / Military / Space / Electronics / RF / Sensors / Opto-electronic / Rugged technology / Embedded systems
*
Selling complex engineered products rather than commodity items
*
Experience with long sales cycles and high-value design-in projects
*
Engineering qualification beneficial (Electronics / Electrical / Mechanical / Mechatronics), but strong technical sales experience also considered
Personal traits:
*
Self-motivated with a business-builder attitude
*
Comfortable working independently without micromanagement
*
Organised and proactive in planning customer visits and pipeline activity
What’s on Offer
*
£70,000 – £80,000 basic (higher considered for an exceptional profile)
*
Excellent bonus with realistic on-target earnings
*
Company car
*
Full travel expenses
*
Strong technical support from European HQ
*
Structured onboarding and product training
This role offers the freedom to operate as a trusted specialist, not a price-driven salesperson — ideal for someone who wants ownership and the ability to truly influence their market.
