Our client is a European manufacturer of industrial piping systems used in compressed air and gas applications.

Already established across multiple European markets, the business is now strengthening its UK presence and investing in a key commercial hire to accelerate growth.

The Role

This is a field-based Area Sales Manager position with full responsibility for developing the UK market.

You will:

• Develop a small number of existing UK & Ireland accounts
  

• Build new business across the territory
  

• Drive sales through the right commercial channels
  

• Position solutions upstream on industrial projects
  

This is a high-impact, front-line role with real ownership of the market.

Target Customers

• Compressed air / compressor distributors
  

• Design offices influencing industrial projects
  

• Industrial installers (HVAC / technical contractors)
  

The role focuses on building a channel-driven and project-led pipeline, not direct end-user selling.

Profile

• 5+ years B2B sales experience in an industrial environment
  

• Strong track record in new business development
  

• Experience working with distributors, installers or project-based sales
  

• Autonomous, field-driven and commercially sharp
  

A network is a plus, but the ability to open doors and build activity from scratch is key.

Location

• UK-based (ideal: Midlands / North)
  

• National coverage + Ireland
  

• Regular travel required
