A well-established, family-run engineering business operating in the M&E side of the building sector is seeking a commercially driven Sales Leader to take ownership of its next growth phase.
With a solid reputation and a capable, experienced sales team already in place, the business is now looking for a dynamic individual to provide direction, sharpen strategy, and unlock larger-scale opportunities.

The appointed Sales Manager / Head of Sales / Sales Director will:
Lead, mentor, and energise a small but capable sales team
Define and execute a clear sales strategy focused on growth and market expansion
Re-engage lapsed clients while proactively targeting new, high-value opportunities
Build strong relationships with main contractors and key decision-makers
Take ownership of major tender submissions, ensuring quality, competitiveness, and alignment with client needs
Work closely with internal teams to ensure seamless delivery from bid to project completion
The Candidate
The ideal candidate will bring:
Proven success selling into the M&E sector within the construction or building services industry
Strong experience working with main contractors
A track record of securing large-scale contracts and managing complex tender processes
Leadership capability, with the ability to motivate and guide an established team
Commercial acumen and a strategic mindset, balanced with a hands-on approach
Confidence, credibility, and the drive to make a tangible impact in a growing business
Why Join?
Opportunity to shape and lead the sales function within a respected, family-run firm
Strong foundations in place-this is about growth, not turnaround
Autonomy and influence at a senior level
A business that values relationships, quality, and long-term success
This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially astute sales leader ready to step into a pivotal role and drive meaningful growth in a well-regarded engineering business.
