Graduate Trainee Sales Engineer

ETS Technical
Leicester
This well known manufacturer of bespoke mechanical assembly systems has a large established customer base in the UK manufacturing sector.

They wish to appoint a graduate trainee sales engineer to manage and grow an existing customer base in the Birmingham and Midlands area.

The sales territory covers customers based in Llandudno, Cheshire, Chester, Crewe, Stafford,Telford,Shrewsbury,Wolverhampton, Walsall,Derby,Leicester, Coventry and Birmingham areas.

Our ideal person is an engineering graduate (Mechanical related Degree) who would like to work in a customer facing role.

The location of role will be home/ field based. If you currently live on the territory. Postcodes LL,SY,CH,CW,ST,WS,WV,DY,B,CV,LE and DE.

Full training will be given (the package includes base salary plus bonus car allowance - so you will need a current drivers licence). Our ideal candidate will be a mechanically oriented graduate engineer who is interested in business and people. You must be eligible to work in the UK without any sponsorship and you must live in one of the areas mentioned or have studied there (no relocating).

No sales experience is needed however based on the profiles of people who have been successful with this company (they have been training graduate engineers for this role for over 10 years) it is quite likely that you have worked in a customer facing role and have an achievement oriented outlook and a general interest in manufacturing. You will be selling an engineered solution to an engineer. Full training is provided.

The role is focussed on developing a group of existing customers (no cold calling). These customers span a range of manufacturing vertical markets which include Automotive, Aerospace and white goods manufacturers and a number of others besides- many of these engineering businesses are household names.

Each project is specifically tailored to the customers requirement and every project is different.

As an engineer you will know what questions to ask in order to build a detailed profile of each customer requirement and hopefully ,make useful inputs towards a solution which will win the customer's order.

If you have enjoyed your engineering Degree but perhaps see yourself prospering in a people facing role on the business side of an Engineering company then this opportunity may be for you
