Sales Engineer

Up to 45,000 Basic + Commission + Car + Full Benefits
Field-Based UK Region

I'm working exclusively with a well-established and growing engineering services business that is now looking to appoint a Sales Engineer to support continued expansion across process and industrial markets.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically minded sales professional who enjoys face-to-face customer engagement and wants a role offering strong earning potential, autonomy, and long-term career development.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Base salary up to 45k, dependent on experience

  • Attractive commission and bonus structure

  • Fully funded company car, fuel card, and full tech package

  • Ongoing training and professional development

  • Modern, collaborative working environment

  • Regular company events and incentives

  • Company pension scheme

  • Health & Wellbeing Cash Plan plus free gym membership near HQ

  • Employer-sponsored office attire

This is a business that genuinely invests in its people and rewards performance.

The Role

As Sales Engineer, you will take ownership of a defined region, selling and promoting a comprehensive portfolio of process instrumentation, calibration, and inspection solutions.

  • Manage sales pipelines, forecasting, and opportunity tracking

  • Support tenders and bids for complex, high-value projects

  • Maintain accurate CRM records of all customer interactions

  • Provide market and competitor insight to support marketing strategy

  • Work collaboratively with internal sales and marketing teams


Background & Experience Sought

  • Engineering background with exposure to electrical engineering

  • Experience selling into process industries, automation, or control instrumentation

  • Understanding of process instrumentation and calibration within production environments

  • Confident working with engineers, buyers, and senior stakeholders

  • Strong consultative and solution-based sales approach

  • Full UK driving licence (field-based role)


Desirable Experience
