Up to £45,000 Basic + Commission + Car + Full Benefits
Field-Based | UK Region

I’m working exclusively with a well-established and growing engineering services business that is now looking to appoint a Sales Engineer to support continued expansion across process and industrial markets.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically minded sales professional who enjoys face-to-face customer engagement and wants a role offering strong earning potential, autonomy, and long-term career development.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Base salary up to £45k, dependent on experience

• Attractive commission and bonus structure

• Fully funded company car, fuel card, and full tech package

• 31 days holiday

• Ongoing training and professional development

• Modern, collaborative working environment

• Regular company events and incentives

• Company pension scheme

• Health & Wellbeing Cash Plan plus free gym membership near HQ

• Employer-sponsored office attire

This is a business that genuinely invests in its people and rewards performance.
