Matching Exceptional Sales Talent with Ambitious Businesses | People-Centric Commercial Growth & Culture Builder
General Manager – Technical B2B Sales & Operations
Office-Based | Global Product Business | Sales-Focused Leadership
We’re partnering with a well-established, UK-based division of a global group that designs, manufactures, and distributes technical communication equipment used in critical industries including defence, emergency services, energy, logistics, and marine.
With a reputation for durability, innovation, and global reach, they’re now seeking a commercially driven General Manager to take ownership of the UK business unit, combining hands-on sales leadership with strategic operational oversight.
This is a rare opportunity to join a high-performing business with ambitious growth targets, a strong team, and the backing of a global brand, while retaining the agility and autonomy of a small UK operation.
The Role:
This isn’t a figurehead GM role. You’ll be leading from the front, developing key relationships with international distributors and partners, driving new business, and ensuring operational excellence across sales, supply chain and operations.
You’ll bring the commercial expertise and sales energy needed to move the business forward, backed by a capable team and you’ll be expected to influence, improve, and deliver across all functions, while shaping growth for the next chapter.
* Lead day-to-day operations of the UK office including sales, forecasting, reporting, and people management
* Take ownership of commercial growth through B2B product sales to a global dealer and distributor network
* Guide and support the internal sales team, while developing high-level client relationships
* Collaborate with international HQ and wider group to ensure alignment on targets, compliance, and group direction
* Monitor performance across departments including admin, logistics, and product support
* Ensure the UK business runs efficiently, hits its commercial goals, and maintains its reputation for service and professionalism
* Strong B2B product sales experience, ideally with technical or engineered equipment
* Experience working with distributors/dealers on a global scale
* A commercially sharp mindset - comfortable with margin control, pricing, forecasting, and negotiation
* Demonstrable experience leading teams and overseeing cross-functional operations
* Natural leadership style: supportive, hands-on, and confident without ego
* Ability to operate in a medium-sized, agile UK business within a larger global group
* Full-time, office-based availability near the Herts / North West London border
* £100,000 basic salary + £20,000 guaranteed year-one bonus
* Company car + private mileage + full expenses
* Opportunity to step into a senior leadership role with real influence
* Long-term potential to shape the future of the UK division
* Supportive global HQ and UK team with deep product expertise
* 31 days holiday (incl. bank hols), pension, social events, on-site parking, relaxed dress code
If you’re a commercially minded senior leader with strong sales instincts and the capability to run a lean, high-impact UK operation this could be your next step.
