INTERNATIONAL DEFENCE SYSTEMS Part of a high profile international engineering group, our client has ambitious plans to more than double the sales of its leading edge systems in Europe, the Middle and Far East, Africa and Australasia. The business is able to provide total system solutions by utilising the development and manufacturing capability of the world-wide group. The Sales Director is responsible for the leadership and development of a UK based team and will also work with associated offices and country based representatives to achieve increased market penetration and profitable growth. You are likely to be a graduate, or equivalent, and have already gained considerable experience of defence sales in the UK and overseas, successfully led a sales team and be experienced in all aspects of management. An excellent communicator, your leadership style will enable you to achieve above average results in the complex and demanding defence market where maintaining long term relationships is often the key to achieving success. A commercially astute business winner, you will be equally at home managing the often lengthy specification, enquiry and tender process as when negotiating major international deals.
