We’re Hiring: International Sales Manager (Technical Equipment) Location: UK (Manchester-linked hybrid) ✈️ Travel: c. 30–40 % worldwide Package: c. £55,000 basic car allowance 10 % bonus benefits Sector: Industrial instrumentation / technical equipment We are supporting a long-established manufacturer of specialist inspection equipment that is entering a significant phase of international expansion following a major organisational shift. This is not a role where you inherit a mature territory. This is a ground-up commercial build, taking a well-regarded technical product into global markets that have barely been touched. ✨ What makes this opportunity stand out: * A respected product range with strong reputation, but large international markets with minimal historic penetration. * A brand-new, next-generation flagship product launching in early 2026. * A genuinely blank canvas across Europe, the Middle East and parts of Asia-Pacific. * A chance to shape the full international dealer strategy with strong backing from senior leadership. * High visibility, high autonomy, and the ability to make an immediate commercial impact. * Perfect for someone who enjoys travel, relationships, and building markets rather than maintaining them. We are looking for someone who: * Has experience selling technical or industrial equipment through distributors or dealer networks. * Is confident building structure where very little currently exists. * Enjoys learning technical products and demonstrating them in front of customers. * Is comfortable travelling internationally 1–2 weeks per month. * Thrives in high-autonomy environments and is motivated by growth, development and market creation. * Brings energy, resilience and commercial drive; someone who enjoys being “boots on the ground”. If you are an ambitious international sales professional who wants to build a market, grow a global dealer network, and take a respected product range into new territories, we would love a confidential conversation.
