Vacancy Description             

Ready to own a national vertical and shape its commercial direction?

If you are an experienced and accomplished sales leader with a strong track record in HVAC, applied systems, cooling, heat exchange or thermal engineering and you are ready to step into a role where your relationships and sector knowledge will be genuinely valued and commercially rewarded, this could be the strategic move you have been waiting for.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

You’re not just joining another Manufacturer.

You're joining a global powerhouse with roots going back to the 1920s, a leader in specialist heating & cooling technologies trusted by blue chip clients across:

• Food & Beverage
• Transport
• HVAC & Refrigeration
• Energy & Data Centres
• Chemical, Oil & Gas
• Marine Applications

This organisation engineers tailored solutions, delivers technical expertise and builds long term value led partnerships.

They are now seeking a high performing Sales Manager to own and drive commercial growth across the UK Food & Beverage and Transport verticals.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Own and execute a national go to market strategy across the Food & Beverage and Transport sectors
• Drive new project acquisition alongside repeat and specification led business
• Develop and manage a robust sales pipeline aligned to growth, EBIT and profitability targets
• Strengthen and expand relationships with consultants, HVAC specifiers, contractors and end users
• Deliver technically led, energy efficient solutions that solve operational and lifecycle challenges
• Present and negotiate high value technical proposals at senior stakeholder level
• Influence decision makers from site engineers through to board level
• Promote innovation, service excellence and total lifecycle value to maintain competitive advantage

What We’re Looking For:

• HVAC experience is essential, particularly within Plate Heat Exchangers, Chillers, AHUs, Commercial Heat Pumps, Adiabatic or Evaporative Cooling
• Strong technical understanding of commercial HVAC equipment, heat transfer, free cooling and applied thermal systems
• Strong network in the F&B, commercial and industrial markets including end users, consultants, contractors, and specifiers or familiar with similar stakeholders.
• A hunter's instinct paired with a strategic mindset. Proactive, solution focused and commercially astute.
• The credibility and confidence to represent a premium brand at senior levels
• Flexibility to travel nationally, with face-to-face engagement seen as a key part of success

What’s In It for You?

• Basic Salary: £65,000+ (higher for standout experience)
• Generous Performance Bonus Scheme – up to 40%
• Flexible and Strong Car and Allowance options
• Full benefits package: pension, phone, laptop, 27 days holiday
• Clear career progression in a globally scaling, engineering led business

This is a national level role with genuine autonomy, strong internal technical support and significant market opportunity.
