The Company

Talent Squared are proud to partner with a successful manufacturer that designs, manufactures and distributes applications & instruments for use in soil science, plant science, agronomy and environmental monitoring.  High commercial applications for the products are of increasing importance, particularly in horticulture and agriculture.  The company has an impressive track record and exports worldwide via its strong distributor network and now wishes to strengthen its international sales team.  We are looking for Export Sales Manager who has a strong background in science or technology, and a talent for business development.

The Role

Part of a growing team, this role will support and develop new business with distributors globally, in particular to secure major customers for OEM components.  You will provide technical sales to researchers, consultants and growers and ensure distributors are managed, trained and fully supported at all times.

Ideally from a scientific technical sales background you will be responsible for international distributors for the USA, Canada and India markets.  Further into the role you will be assigned to Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Central and South American territories.  You will spend around 13-16 weeks overseas whilst effectively maintaining contact with all customers in between visits.  Our client is also interested in candidates who have irrigation and grower market experience to further develop OEM customers; you will be comfortable with handling high value sales opportunities in the UK and abroad.  This role would suit a sales professional with applied science or engineering degree with a track record of building commercial relations to win high value contracts, particularly for OEM products.  Alternatively we will consider applicants who have knowledge/experience in Agronomy, soil science, plant science, environmental instruments, horticulture market or irrigation/irrigation control technology, perhaps in a research role.  Our client offers a non-hierichal culture with promising career prospects, supported by a dedicated R&D team.  This business is unique by promoting green, ethical and co-operative values.

If you want to be considered for this opportunity then please forward your resume with a covering letter explaining your achievements in international sales within the furnishing or textile industry.
