Project Sales Manager- Transmission and Drivetrain solutions

5 Days Old

This is a project-led sales position within a globally established industrial engineering manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for heavy-duty power transmission and drivetrain solutions.
The role focuses on large, specification-driven opportunities delivered through EPCs, OEMs, and major end users, rather than high-volume or transactional sales activity. It will suit someone who enjoys being involved early in the lifecycle of complex industrial projects and seeing them through from concept to contract award.
The role
* Manage and develop large, project-based sales opportunities from early specification through to final order placement
* Work closely with EPC contractors, OEMs, and engineering consultancies to influence design and equipment selection
* Support complex tenders involving engineered gear units, drives, and integrated mechanical systems
* Act as the commercial interface between customers and internal engineering, applications, and project delivery teams
* Navigate long sales cycles, technical clarification stages, and multi-stakeholder decision-making processes
* Build and maintain a structured pipeline of major, high-value projects
Project environments and industries
* Energy including power generation, energy-from-waste, and renewables
* Heavy process industries including cement, steel, mining, and minerals
* Oil, gas, and petrochemical infrastructure
* Materials handling, ports, and bulk logistics
* Water, wastewater, and large-scale infrastructure projects
* OEM-led capital equipment and plant systems
What they are looking for
* Experience in project-based sales within industrial engineering or heavy mechanical equipment
* Background in gearboxes, power transmission, rotating equipment, or engineered mechanical systems
* Exposure to EPCs, OEMs, and consulting engineers
* Comfort managing long, complex sales cycles with multiple stakeholders
* Technically credible with the ability to engage in specification-led discussions
* Structured, resilient, and commercially aware approach
Why this role
* A clear move away from short-term, transactional sales
* Involvement in major, high-profile industrial projects with real engineering depth
* Part of a technically led organisation with strong global engineering and manufacturing capability
* Long-term career development within a stable and well-established business
* Competitive salary, bonus, and benefits aligned to senior project sales responsibility
This opportunity will particularly appeal to candidates who would consider a role offering greater technical depth, project ownership, and long-term impact.
