Sales Manager

Location: Blackpool (Hybrid) + UK Travel
Salary: £60,000 base + very generous commission structure

🚀 The Opportunity

We’re partnering with a private equity-backed engineering services business on an exciting growth journey, with a current turnover of circa £20m and clear plans to scale significantly over the coming years.

They’ve built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality electrical solutions across commercial environments and now they’re looking for a Sales Manager to take ownership of the commercial function and play a pivotal role in driving the next phase of growth.

This is more than just a sales role it’s an opportunity to build, shape, and lead a function, with genuine influence and visibility at board level.

⚡ What You’ll Be Driving

You’ll take full ownership of sales strategy and execution across a broad and growing service offering, including electrical installation, maintenance, compliance, and renewable energy solutions (solar, battery storage, EV charging).

Key focus areas include:

Developing and delivering a UK-wide sales strategy aligned with ambitious growth targets
Identifying and unlocking new opportunities across commercial, FM, retail, and public-sector markets
Building and leading a high-performing sales / business development team as the company scales
Leading key bids, tenders, and commercial negotiations
Establishing long-term, high-value client relationships
Collaborating closely with operational and technical teams to ensure seamless delivery

📈 What Success Looks Like

Strong, consistent revenue growth and margin improvement
A robust, visible pipeline of high-quality opportunities
Expansion into new sectors and key accounts
A scalable, structured, high-performing sales function

🧠 What They’re Looking For

Proven experience in a Sales Manager or senior BD role ideally within electrical contracting, M&E, or construction
Strong knowledge of UK markets including compliance, installation, and/or renewables
A track record of winning new business and exceeding revenue targets
Experience with tenders, frameworks, and commercial negotiations
Leadership capability with the ambition to build and grow a team
A proactive, strategic mindset with strong commercial awareness
(Experience across FM, retail rollouts, public sector, or green energy is a strong advantage)

🌟 Why This Role Stands Out

Private equity backing — real investment, clear growth strategy, and momentum
Huge scope for progression — this role is expected to evolve as the business scales (think Head of Sales / Commercial leadership)
High earning potential — a genuinely strong and uncapped commission structure
Real ownership — shape the sales function from the ground up
Exposure to high-growth sectors including renewable energy and sustainability
A leadership team that values autonomy, ideas, and delivery

💰 Package & Benefits

£60,000 base salary
Very generous bonus / commission scheme (uncapped earning potential)
Company vehicle
Pension scheme
25+ days holiday + bank holidays
Ongoing training & professional development
The opportunity to play a key role in scaling a £20m+ business

🤝 The Process

A straightforward, efficient process — typically 2–3 stages with quick turnaround.
