Join to apply for the Technical Sales Engineer role at Rotron Aerospace Ltd.
Rotron Aerospace Ltd. is a leader in developing high‑performance vertical take‑off and landing (VTOL) aircraft and propulsion system technology. Located in Semley, Rotron Aerospace is at the forefront of innovation in the aviation industry.
The Role
We’re looking for an early‑career Technical Sales Engineer — someone who loves engineering but also enjoys the business side of things. You’ll be helping us turn technical capability into compelling proposals, supporting customer engagements, and contributing to Rotron’s future product roadmap.
This is a diverse, practical role: one day you might be supporting a customer demo or drafting a proposal; the next, you could be in the workshop working alongside the engineering team or helping to define what we should build next.
Key Responsibilities
* Support customer meetings, visits, and demonstrations — providing technical input and representing Rotron professionally.
* Prepare and contribute to technical proposals, Statements of Work, and Basis of Estimate (BoE) documents.
* Assist in developing strategic product roadmaps, translating customer feedback and market insight into future capability plans.
* Collaborate across engineering, production, and quality teams to ensure accurate bid responses and technical alignment.
* Attend international trade shows and customer events as part of Rotron’s business development team.
* Maintain hands‑on understanding of our products by supporting ongoing R&D and project work.
* (Optional, but encouraged!) Learn to operate and demonstrate UAV systems — flight and ground training provided.
About You
* Degree‑qualified in Aerospace, Mechanical, or a related engineering discipline.
* 2–5 years’ experience in aerospace, UAV, or defence engineering.
* Excellent written and verbal communication — able to explain technical topics clearly and persuasively.
* Interested in business development, customer interaction, and proposal writing.
* Practical, hands‑on, and keen to stay close to real hardware.
* Confident, curious, and happy to travel internationally when required.
* Must be eligible to work in the UK and able to obtain UK Security Clearance (SC level).
* This is a on‑site role — Rotron is a hands‑on engineering company, and we want everyone part of the daily team.
Skills and Experience
* Be part of a small, ambitious team doing genuinely interesting engineering.
* Opportunities to travel and represent Rotron globally.
* Exposure to both technical and commercial sides of the aerospace industry.
* Career progression into business development, product management, or technical leadership.
* Part of the wider Group — including innovative ventures such as Parajet and Crighton Motorcycles.
What We Offer
* Competitive salary and benefits package.
* Opportunity to work on cutting‑edge aerospace and defence programmes.
* A creative, fast‑moving environment with real autonomy and impact.
* Career progression within an ambitious and growing company.

If you’re an engineer who enjoys building relationships as much as building engines — we’d love to hear from you.
