* Proactively identifying and securing new business opportunities across target sectors

* Representing the business at industry events, trade shows and networking opportunities

* Working cross-functionally with engineering, marketing and customer teams to translate technical capability into commercially successful programmes

Skills/Experience:

* Commercially focused with strong negotiation, planning and organisational skills

* Keen attention to detail with the ability to manage complex commercial data and forecasting accurately

* Degree educated in business management, marketing, business information technology or a related discipline

* Full, clean driving licence — essential

* Experience in automotive sales, RFQ management or automotive programme management — highly advantageous

* Background in technology licensing, engineering consultancy or premium branded solutions — highly advantageous

* Direct experience working with OEM customers and their sourcing and product development lifecycles — highly advantageous

Salary & Working Hours:

* Competitive salary dependent on experience

* High-profile, senior role with genuine commercial ownership and autonomy
