Our client supplies corrosion resistant engineering products to the pharmaceutical, fine chemicals, hydrogen, oil and gas companies globally.
With an established network of sales agents and distribution partners worldwide, they supply anti-corrosive lined piping, bellows, valves, heat exchangers, pumps, sampling systems etc through their world-wide distributors who hold stock in-country.
Due to a significant increase in export sales, they now seek an Export Sales Manager to take ownership of all international sales and distributor channel management. This is a brand-new international sales position, reporting to the Sales & Marketing Director.
As the Export Sales Manager you will be responsible for driving international sales, managing the existing distributor relationships to maximise export sales into existing international markets as well as identify, select and partner with new distributors in new territories and new markets, for example car battery production and electric car battery recycling in the Far East/Asia region.
The role will involve approx. 50% international travel so the Export Sales Manager must be willing to travel extensively overseas and live near an international airport. You will therefore need a full and clean driving license and valid passport, with no restrictions to travel internationally. The ideal candidate will be used to working across cultures, continents and have a flexible approach to business hours/travel. A home office will be fully supported/equipped.
This is a highly autonomous technical sales role, and the Export Sales Manager will have the freedom to manage their own travel/diary to execute distributor relationship management, travel in country with the distributor representatives/agents and attend key client meetings as and where required. There may be key conferences/exhibitions that will need attending.
The successful applicant will already be a proven International Sales Manager, Export Sales Manager, Channel Distribution Manager EMEA or equivalent job title holder, and will have already sold technically engineered products such as piping, valves, columns, actuators, sight glasses, gauges, pumps etc into an anti-corrosive environment/industry like the Pharmaceutical, Petrochemical, Oil & Gas sectors internationally where they need corrosive resistant engineering products. You will hold an engineering degree or equivalent and have at least 5 years successful international export sales management experience already
