About

Area Sales Manager – Aerospace & Defence Electronics (Technical Sales) We are recruiting an Area Sales Manager / Technical Sales Manager on behalf of a long-established European manufacturer of high-reliability engineered components and subsystems supplied into Aerospace & Defence applications. This is a high-autonomy, technical sales role focused on developing business with major aerospace & defence OEMs and systems integrators. The position combines account development and new business, operating early in the design-in lifecycle to influence engineering decisions that lead to long-term supply. If you enjoy selling complex engineered solutions rather than catalogue products, and you thrive on building long-term technical relationships, this is an exceptional opportunity. Key Responsibilities * Develop and grow sales with Aerospace & Defence customers across the UK (primary) and Northern Europe (secondary) * Build strong relationships with engineering, programme and procurement teams * Identify and convert new design-in opportunities within target accounts * Manage and develop existing customers to secure long-term revenue * Work closely with internal technical experts to support customer requirements * Maintain accurate reporting, visit plans and sales pipeline forecasts Candidate Profile We are looking for a candidate who is both technical and commercial, with the credibility to engage engineering stakeholders and the drive to win new business. Ideal experience includes: * Technical sales into Aerospace / Defence / Military / Space / Electronics / RF / Sensors / Opto-electronic / Rugged technology / Embedded systems * Selling complex engineered products rather than commodity items * Experience with long sales cycles and high-value design-in projects * Engineering qualification beneficial (Electronics / Electrical / Mechanical / Mechatronics), but strong technical sales experience also considered Personal traits: * Self-motivated with a business-builder attitude * Comfortable working independently without micromanagement * Organised and proactive in planning customer visits and pipeline activity What’s on Offer * £70,000 – £80,000 basic (higher considered for an exceptional profile) * Excellent bonus with realistic on-target earnings * Company car * Full travel expenses * Strong technical support from European HQ * Structured onboarding and product training This role offers the freedom to operate as a trusted specialist, not a price-driven salesperson — ideal for someone who wants ownership and the ability to truly influence their market. How to Apply If you are a commercially minded engineer or technical sales professional with experience selling into Aerospace & Defence or closely related engineered sectors, we’d love to hear from you. 📩 Apply now with your CV, or contact JP at Aarca Technical Sales Recruitment for a confidential discussion
