An established industry player is seeking a dynamic Managing Director to lead its UK operations. This role presents an exciting opportunity to take commercial control of a reputable German group known for its innovative products in non-destructive testing. The ideal candidate will have a strong sales background in the manufacturing or engineering sectors, with a focus on driving revenue while maintaining profitability. With a small yet dedicated team, you will be responsible for their development and represent the company in all compliant matters. If you are a high-achieving individual ready to make a significant impact, this position is for you.
My client is a 100m Euro privately owned German group engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of technically advanced products for non-destructive material testing, detection and magnetic field measurement. Steady and profitable growth has been achieved group wide, recognised by the cutting edge engineering design that we come to associate with German inspired engineering prowess. Its products are sold into the aerospace, automotive, steel, petrochemical and ordnance sectors to name but a few and although not a business name recognised in everyday life, the results of their products are felt across much of our daily agendas.
In order to significantly develop and strengthen the UK operation, the group now seeks to appoint a commercially proven and energetic individual who sees this as an attractive opportunity to assume commercial control. We are focusing our search towards high achieving sales performers from the manufacturing or engineering domains, who display the maturity and commercial track record in a disciplined and principled business. As technical capability is available through the team, this leadership role will require modern and highly focused best practice revenue generation thinking, where increasing turnover is not at the expense of profitable growth.
Although the team is small in head count, you will be aware of and responsible for the training needs within, and ultimately you will be the company representative for all compliant matters associated with the UK business. Due to the position of existing customers and potential new business targets, there will be significant UK travel mixed with occasional trips to Europe for group matters.
