Sales & Business Development Manager (Aerospace, Defence & Manufacturing) - Remote

Remote | Full-Time | Competitive Salary + Performance-Based Earnings

Make an impact in Aerospace, Defence & Advanced Manufacturing.

Are you an ambitious, proactive professional with experience working within or selling into Aerospace, Defence, or Manufacturing?

Are you looking for an opportunity where your industry knowledge, technical understanding, and ability to build relationships can make a genuine difference?

We’re launching an exciting new UK growth opportunity with a globally recognized leader in industrial lubricants and high-performance products, supporting customers across some of the world's most technically demanding industries.

As part of the Pathfinder UK programme, you’ll help identify and develop opportunities across the Aerospace, Defence, and Manufacturing landscape, working with organizations where technical performance, reliability, and product qualification are critical.

This is an opportunity to apply what you already know about the industrial world in a new way, helping identify solutions, develop opportunities, and introduce high-performance products into specialized industries.

About the Role

This is a new opportunity, focused on developing opportunities across Aerospace, Defence, and Industrial Manufacturing.

You don’t need to be a senior salesperson. We’re looking for someone who understands the environment they’re operating in and can confidently navigate organizations with multiple stakeholders, technical requirements, and qualification processes.

You’ll develop relationships with potential customers, understand their applications and requirements, identify opportunities for the client’s products, and support those opportunities through evaluation and product trials.

Working alongside the client’s sales, technical, and distributor teams, you’ll play an important role in developing opportunities through the sales cycle.

Requirements

What We're Looking For:

The most relevant experience is working with or selling into Aerospace, Defence, or Manufacturing.

Experience within industrial lubricants, engineering, manufacturing, maintenance, applications engineering, or a related industrial environment would be valuable.

Above all, we’re looking for someone proactive, dynamic, commercially minded, and familiar with the industrial landscape.

Why Join This New UK Growth Initiative?

This isn’t simply another sales position. You’ll be joining a new UK growth programme for an established global brand, giving you the opportunity to use your industry experience in a new way and make a visible commercial impact.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Represent a globally recognized industrial brand
• Help develop a new UK growth programme
• Build relationships across the Aerospace, Defence, and Manufacturing space
• Work alongside experienced sales and technical teams
• Be responsible for running your own sales cycle up until product trial
• Work remotely, but have the opportunity to go onsite and build customer relationships

Remote Working & Travel:

This is a remote-based role, but you will need to be comfortable traveling to customer and client sites from time to time as opportunities progress through the sales cycle.

If you’re an ambitious professional with an industrial background who wants to use your experience in a new way and make your mark on an exciting new UK growth initiative, we’d love to hear from you.
