Do you have experience selling technical products into Aviation? Do you enjoy travelling overseas to meet customers and exhibit at tradeshows? Are you keen to take over a strong customer base and fantastic product range for a leading UK organisation?

If this sounds like you we are working with an industry leader in the aviation sector currently on the lookout for a Business Development Manager to join their team to take authority over the ongoing management and growth of their range of Aviation product. Whilst they're very well established and also sell via distribution, we need a hungry and motivated BDM, to carry on the success and take them to the next level.

With over 90 years of growth and achievement, the company provides an extensive range of products and systems. They design and manufacture equipment for the Aviation, Maritime and Rail industries and as a UK manufacturer can create bespoke products at short notice.

The successful Business Development Manager will take responsibility for managing, supporting and growing their aviation sales. You will be targeted to provide sales orders at profitable target levels that meet or exceed budget and communicate action plans when results differ from expectations.

Candidates will ideally have experience in a field/home-based global business development role, and be able to demonstrate success in winning business and selling products to new and existing aviation customers at home and overseas. You must be comfortable visiting and working on stands at tradeshows across the world, and meetings with end-user customers directly to discuss the benefits of technical product ranges and their pain points. All applicants must be tech/software savvy and used to efficiently using ERP/CRM systems, and holding client meetings over video calls.

This is an opportunity for a candidate who enjoys travelling and seeking to further their career in international sales, to take a role at a successful and growing business offering fantastic benefits and career opportunities. Due to the location of this role, candidates can be located anywhere in the UK provided you can visit their office at least a couple of times a month, though more visibility would help you succeed in the role.
