Field-Based – M4 Corridor & South (Bristol, Bath, Swindon, Cardiff, West London)

Are you an experienced sales professional from the tooling, machine tool, or fabrication industry?
Do you enjoy building relationships, solving technical challenges, and managing your own patch?

Our client is a global market leader in precision tooling solutions for the sheet metal and fabrication sectors — competing with the likes of Amada and Trumpf, but specialising purely in high-value tooling systems rather than capital equipment.

You’ll join a close-knit UK team of seasoned professionals, reporting to the UK Sales Manager and working closely with colleagues who bring decades of industry experience.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage an established customer base while developing new business opportunities.
• Conduct 10–20 customer visits per week, with 5–6 overnight stays per month.
• Identify and deliver tooling solutions for press brake and punching applications.
• Maintain accurate CRM data and pipeline visibility.
• Contribute ideas for territory growth and market development.

About You

• Proven sales experience within CNC machinery, sheet metal, pressing, bending, or fabrication tooling.
• Commercially astute, self-driven, and technically credible.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.
• Comfortable travelling across a regional territory with occasional overnight stays.

The Package

• £45,000 basic + £10,000 bonus potential
