A Sales Engineer / Technical Sales Specialist is needed to join Safesite, a UK leader in height safety solutions. This role will see you work within a small team driving sales growth and building key customer relationships within a pioneer of the fall protection / height safety industry.

Founded in 1991, Safesite are one of the most respected fall protection specialists in the UK. With a strong reputation for innovation and service, they've helped shape the industry for over three decades, designing and delivering best-in-class solutions that protect lives across virtually every sector. As the business continues to modernise and expand, they're now looking for a confident and driven Sales Engineer / Sales Professional to join the team.

As a Sales professional from the engineering, construction, safety solutions or related industries you will work at the forefront of the business, generating and following up on sales opportunities (from both assigned leads and your own proactive outreach). It goes without saying that you'll attend site visits, prepare quotations, and develop strong relationships, but you'll also work alongside the Manager imparting ideas and strategies that drive growth beyond individual deals.

Full product training is provided, so although fall protection experience is helpful, it is not essential.

Key Requirements:You should be an ambitious, driven and motivated Sales Engineer / Technical Sales Engineer / Business Development Manager / Sales Professional or similar with a CV that demonstrates:

• The natural ability to communicate with people and build relationships;
• That you are practically minded (ideally from a construction or engineering background);
• The ability to interpret technical information and drawings;
• That you are a team player whilst also happy to work on your own;
• Creative and strategic thinking skills;
• A full UK Driving Licence;
• Willingness to travel (as required for onsite visits for surveys and quotations).

Additional security screening may be required, eg. DBS check.

In return the successful Sales Engineer can expect an exciting role with benefits that include: Car allowance with paid business mileage, 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays and 3 days allocated for Christmas shutdown), hybrid working, paid overtime and excess travel, company pension scheme, life insurance, company phone, extensive training, charitable activities and donations plus much more.
