We have a fantastic opportunity for a Mechanical Graduate to join our client's testing facility in the West Midlands working with some very exciting customers in the Aerospace, Defence & F1 industry. Our client is a Global business with massive scope to progress within. This is not a "normal sales" role, this role will be spent working very closely with the laboratory team so will not just be spent sitting at a desk in an office environment. If you have an education in Mechanical Engineering and would enjoy the commercial aspect of a role but want to continue to use your technical knowledge this could be the perfect role for you!

**Please make note due to the nature of the role and the assignments in play our client needs someone who is a British National due to Security clearance requirements or someone who has resided in the UK for the past 5-7 years**

The Role:

  • Conversion of complex technical Documents to quotes. Understanding of the technical documentation is key here.
  • Work closely with clients on their projects- which will involve selling solutions and working with the client on a consultation approach.
  • Follow up leads for future business opportunities.
  • Work in close collaboration with the sales, laboratory teams as well as the general managers.
  • Engage with clients and potentially new clients via phone, email, and socials.
  • Contact clients to qualify the quote request.
  • Calculate costing models from standard price lists for quotes.
  • Provide clarification and modification of quotations when required.
  • The ideal candidate will be customer focused, action oriented, approachable and patience.
  • Assist in more complex PO when necessary.
  • Use the CRM database to record any activities such as calls and client visits, but also ensuring that it is up to date and duplications are removed.
  • Working to targets to achieve sales goals and increase chance of commission.
  • Participate in client visits and events when required-this is usually lead by one of the managers and you will act as more of a "Technical Support".

The Person:

  • Degree in a Mechanical / Engineering Discipline
  • A data driven person with the ability to calculate figures such as interest, commission, discounts and apply basic concepts of algebra and geometry.
  • The flexibility and confidence to proactively develop new contacts within pre-existing clients.
  • Enthusiastic, willingness to learn and excellent interpersonal and communication skills (written & verbal).
  • Proficient in Microsoft applications.

What you can gain from this opportunity:

  • Working in a variety of complex software environments.
  • Progression up the ranks of the company.
  • Working with high-profile clients.
