We're partnering with a well-established, UK-based division of a global group that designs, manufactures, and distributes technical communication equipment used in critical industries including defence, emergency services, energy, logistics, and marine.

?? Key Responsibilities:

• Lead day-to-day operations of the UK office including sales, forecasting, reporting, and people management
• Take ownership of commercial growth through B2B product sales to a global dealer and distributor network
• Guide and support the internal sales team, while developing high-level client relationships
• Collaborate with international HQ and wider group to ensure alignment on targets, compliance, and group direction
• Monitor performance across departments including admin, logistics, and product support
• Ensure the UK business runs efficiently, hits its commercial goals, and maintains its reputation for service and professionalism

?? You'll Be a Great Fit If You Have:

• Strong B2B product sales experience, ideally with technical or engineered equipment
• Experience working with distributors/dealers on a global scale
• A commercially sharp mindset - comfortable with margin control, pricing, forecasting, and negotiation
• Demonstrable experience leading teams and overseeing cross-functional operations
• Natural leadership style: supportive, hands-on, and confident without ego
• Ability to operate in a medium-sized, agile UK business within a larger global group
• Full-time, office-based availability near the Herts / North West London border

�? What's On Offer:

• £100,000 basic salary + £20,000 guaranteed year-one bonus
• Company car + private mileage + full expenses
• Opportunity to step into a senior leadership role with real influence
• Long-term potential to shape the future of the UK division
• Supportive global HQ and UK team with deep product expertise
• 31 days holiday (incl. bank hols), pension, social events, on-site parking, relaxed dress code

If you're a commercially minded senior leader with strong sales instincts and the capability to run a lean, high-impact UK operation this could be your next step.
