It offers an interesting middle ground between Applications Engineering and Technical Sales – ideal for someone who wants genuine customer responsibility and commercial involvement without spending their entire working week travelling around the country.
If you have a technical mindset, enjoy dealing with industrial customers and want a position where engineering knowledge and commercial ability are equally valued, we would be very interested in hearing from you
