There are Senior Civil Engineer roles where you inherit a job description.

And there are roles where you get the chance to shape what comes next.

We’re working confidentially with a busy and growing engineering consultancy looking for a Civil Engineer to become a key part of its civils function.

They’re open-minded about exactly who that person is.

You might be an experienced Civil Engineer who’s ready to step up, take on more responsibility and start making your mark.

Or you could already be operating at Senior level and want the opportunity to take the lead, develop the function and help build the team around you.

Either way, you need to be someone who still enjoys doing the engineering.

This is a hands-on role.

The workload is growing, projects are moving and they need someone who can get stuck into the design work, manage projects and deal confidently with clients.

The majority of the work is residential and commercial development, covering:

• Drainage design, including SuDS and surface water
• Highway and access design
• Technical drawings, calculations and reports
• Projects from early-stage design through to delivery

There is some highways work, but this isn’t a major infrastructure / National Highways role. The sweet spot is someone who understands drainage, access and highways within the development environment.

You’ll also be visible to clients, so you need to be comfortable having conversations, building relationships and representing the consultancy rather than disappearing behind the drawings.

What are they looking for?

Strong drainage and highways experience is important, but just as important is your attitude.

They want someone with energy, initiative and the confidence to take responsibility.

Someone who sees a growing workload and thinks opportunity, not problem.

CEng / MICE would be welcomed, but they’re more interested in finding the right engineer than ticking every box.

What’s the opportunity?

For the right person, this can become much more than another Senior Civil Engineer position.

There’s scope to shape the civils function, influence how it develops and potentially build a team around you as the workload continues to grow.

If you’re earlier in your career, it’s a genuine step-up opportunity.

If you’re already experienced, it’s a chance to take the lead.

Technical Sales Manager
You'll take technical problems our customers can't solve themselves and turn them into bespoke engineered solutions worth tens of thousands of pounds.

We design and manufacture custom industrial equipment for manufacturing and heavy industry customers across the UK. Every project is different, every solution is engineered from scratch, and you'll own the entire sales process from first conversation to signed order.

What you'll earn:
• £60,000 basic salary
• £80k OTE
• Company car
• Hybrid working (typically three days per week at our Midlands office, the rest from home or on customer sites)

What you'll do:
• Manage the full sales cycle from initial enquiry through to order
• Visit customer sites to understand their application and technical requirements
• Work with our design, engineering and estimating teams to develop commercially viable solutions
• Develop existing customer relationships and convert an established pipeline of opportunities
• Generate new business and open doors with manufacturing and industrial prospects
• Handle deals that range from quick-turnaround projects to longer, consultative technical sales

Deal size and complexity vary. Some opportunities move quickly; others need a more considered, partnership approach.

What we're looking for:

Essential:
• Proven technical sales experience selling bespoke, engineered or application-led solutions (not catalogue products)
• A background selling into manufacturing or industrial customers
• Comfortable visiting sites, diagnosing customer problems and collaborating with technical colleagues to design and cost a solution
• Commercially sharp and confident generating new business, not just managing existing accounts
• Able to commute to our Midlands office around three days per week

Nice to have:
• Experience in fabrication, material handling, industrial equipment, racking and storage systems, capital equipment or similar engineered products (but we care more about how you sell than an exact product match)

About us:
We're an established UK engineering business with a strong pipeline already in place. You'll inherit live opportunities from day one, but there's plenty of scope to make your own mark and grow the business further.

Technical Sales Manager

If your idea of technical sales is picking a product from a catalogue, this probably isn't the role for you.

We're recruiting for an established UK engineering business that designs and manufactures bespoke engineered solutions for industrial and manufacturing customers.

They are looking for an experienced Technical Sales Manager who can understand an application, get under the skin of what the customer actually needs and work with internal technical and design teams to develop the right solution.

You'll inherit an active pipeline of opportunities, but this certainly isn't an account management role.

You'll be expected to develop existing customers, convert current opportunities and create new business of your own.

The Role

You'll manage the complete sales process from initial conversation through to order, including:

  • Developing new and existing manufacturing and industrial customers

  • Taking over and converting an established pipeline

  • Visiting customer sites to understand applications and requirements

  • Turning customer problems into commercially viable technical solutions

  • Working alongside design, engineering and estimating teams

Deal values and sales cycles vary considerably. Some opportunities can move relatively quickly, while larger or more technically involved projects require a more consultative approach.

What We're Looking For

The key is your technical sales background.

You'll need experience selling a bespoke, engineered or application-led solution into manufacturing or industrial customers.

We'd particularly like to hear from people with experience around:

Fabrication | Material Handling | Industrial Equipment | Racking & Storage Systems | Engineered Products | Capital Equipment | Manufacturing Solutions

However, we're more interested in how you sell than an exact product match.

If you're accustomed to visiting a customer, understanding an application and working with technical colleagues to design, cost and sell a solution, your background could fit extremely well.

You'll also need to be commercially sharp and comfortable generating new business rather than simply servicing existing accounts.

The Package

Circa £60,000 basic salary
Excellent OTE
Company car
Hybrid working

You'll typically spend around three days per week at the Midlands office, with the remainder working from home or visiting customers, so you'll need to live within a sensible commuting distance.

This is a great opportunity to join an established engineering business where there is already plenty happening, but still considerable scope to make your own mark.
