Martin Lishman Ltd is a market-leading innovator in the Agri-Tech manufacturing sector, proudly celebrating 50 years of UK manufacturing and innovation in 2025. We design and supply a wide range of specialist products for the agriculture, horticulture, and sports turf industries. This year has seen a surge in UK compact sprayer sales and the launch of our new-generation Barn Owl Wireless remote monitoring system – all part of an exciting period of growth and innovation. As we continue to build on this momentum, we are now looking for a Sales Executive to join our sales team to help drive our next chapter of success.
The Role
As a key member of our close-knit Sales and Marketing team, the Sales Executive will play a proactive role in driving sales across all of our product ranges. Reporting to the Managing Director, you'll be involved in the day-to-day handling of incoming enquiries and sales as well as identifying and pursuing new business opportunities through lead generation activities.
Although the role is primarily office based, it will involve attending trade shows and grain clinics and you may be required to visit customers for site visits from time to time. There may also be the opportunity for some overseas travel.
This is a dynamic role offering exposure to all areas of the sales process, ideal for someone with a proactive attitude, who can multitask effectively and has a willingness to get stuck in. Flexibility is essential, as responsibilities may evolve in line with business needs.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone enthusiastic, proactive, and ready to take the next step in their sales career. This role is ideal for someone in the earlier stages of their career who is eager to learn and grow within a supportive team.
As a manufacturing company, many of our products are technical in nature, so this position would particularly suit someone with an interest in understanding and promoting more technical products.
We're looking for someone with:
The ability to drive sales and achieve targets
An interest in technical products and a willingness to learn about our equipment and solutions
Good problem solving skills
Excellent communication, relationship-building, and negotiation skills
A self-motivated, proactive approach with strong attention to detail
A collaborative mindset and a willingness to support colleagues and work as part of a team
A strong, positive personality
If you're full of ideas, keen to learn, and ready to grow within a dynamic and innovative manufacturing environment, we'd love to hear from you.
What We Offer
* Starting salary from £26,000
* Generous holiday allowance + company pension
* A positive, supportive team culture with a strong focus on work/life balance
