Job Description

Business Development Executive / Sales Executive / Technical Sales Manager

Working directly for the Managing Director as part of a small, ambitious team shaping the future of six specialist engineering companies

Are you a natural relationship‑builder with a passion for technical products, problem‑solving and helping customers find the right solution? Do you thrive in hands‑on environments where no two days are the same? If so, this is a rare opportunity to join a small, friendly team and play a key role in the evolution of a growing group of niche engineering businesses.

We’re a collection of six specialist companies, each with its own unique products, customers and history, all owned and led by Managing Director John Tyrrell, a seasoned technical sales professional. Every business has been acquired from retiring founders, and each one has huge potential for growth meaning your impact will be visible, valued and genuinely important.

UK‑designed web tension measurement and control systems used in paper converting, plastics, composites and printing.
The UK’s largest manufacturer of handheld bat detectors, trusted by ecologists, wildlife wardens and conservation groups worldwide.
Materials testing equipment for rubber, plastics and composites, plus UK & Ireland distribution for leading European and US manufacturers.
Specialist gas analysers for NO, NO₂, NOx and Ammonia, used in industrial and medical applications, with technical support and onsite calibration.

Implementing and embedding a CRM system
Strengthening customer loyalty through excellent communication
Supporting the evolution of the group as new products and acquisitions come online

You’ll work closely with John and the wider team, bringing fresh ideas, energy and structure to a business that is ready for its next stage of growth.

Engaging with customers via phone, virtual meetings and site visits across the UK
Understanding customer needs and presenting tailored technical solutions
Preparing quotations, proposals and commercial offers
Managing the full sales cycle from lead generation to negotiation

Confidence engaging with engineers, technicians and knowledge‑based customers
Strong communication skills across phone, virtual and face‑to‑face channels
Ability to manage a sales pipeline and follow up consistently
Curiosity, problem‑solving mindset and willingness to learn technical products
Self‑motivation and comfort working in a small, hands‑on team
Ability to build strong, long‑term customer relationships
