From its European headquarters the Company designs and manufactures an extensive range of products appropriate to the key markets within which it has developed considerable commercial success.

WHERE IS THE ROLE LOCATED? West Midlands

TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE ROLE? Encompassing a wide variety of activities, mainly office based, communicating externally and internally, providing analysis and data, you’ll be immersed in the product sector, understanding the market, dealers and competitors, and ensuring that relevant information is distributed and presented appropriately. You’ll provide a pivotal role in supporting sales teams, focused on adding value to the commercial process, creating and delivering product training material and developing marketing material appropriate to the UK market in order to maximise sales activities.
