Vacancy Description Looking for a bigger stage to perform on?
If you’re an experienced and accomplished sales leader with a strong track record in HVAC, applied systems, cooling, heat exchange or thermal engineering and you're ready to step into a role where your relationships and sector knowledge will be truly valued and rewarded… this could be the next strategic move you’ve been waiting for.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
You’re not just joining another Manufacturer.
You're joining a global powerhouse with roots going back to the 1920s - a leader in specialist heating & cooling technologies trusted by blue-chip clients across:
* Energy & Data Centres
* Food & Beverage
* Transport
* HVAC & Refrigeration
* Chemical, Oil & Gas
* Marine Applications
This business doesn’t just shift boxes, they engineer tailored solutions, deliver technical expertise, and form long-term, value-led partnerships.
Now, they’re seeking a high-performing Sales Manager to lead commercial growth across the UK Data Centre Sector
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Drive national sales growth within the Data Centre market, balancing new project wins, repeat business, and specification-driven sales.
* Shape and lead sales strategy focused on the London region, while expanding activity nationally.
* Build and leverage relationships with Data Centre-focused consultants, HVAC specifiers, end-users, and contractors.
* Deliver expert-led, energy-efficient solutions that solve real operational challenges.
* Confidently present and negotiate high-value technical proposals, influencing key decision-makers, from site engineers to C-suite.
* Adopt a structured sales methodology (e.g.,) to build a consistent, high-quality opportunity pipeline.
* Use CRM tools to manage opportunities, track performance, and maintain high-quality data.
* Collaborate closely with internal engineering, service, and delivery teams to ensure solutions meet customer needs and drive sustainable growth.
* Work within established governance frameworks (tender reviews, customer onboarding, delegation of authority) to protect margin and ensure compliance.
What We’re Looking For:
* Proven HVAC experience - ideally with Plate Heat Exchangers, Chillers, AHUs, Commercial Heat Pumps, Adiabatic and Evaporative Cooling.
* Strong technical understanding of free cooling, heat transfer, blast chillers, and coolers.
* Established network within the Data Centre sector (end-users, consultants, contractors, specifiers).
* A hunter’s instinct paired with a strategic mindset - proactive, solution-led, and commercially astute.
* Comfortable influencing senior decision-makers and representing a premium brand at a strategic level.
* Ability to build trust quickly and collaborate effectively with internal stakeholders.
* Flexible and willing to travel nationally
* Strong organisational, reporting, and CRM skills with the discipline to manage multiple opportunities simultaneously.
How Success Will Be Measured:
* Delivery of agreed sales, EBIT, and profitability targets.
* Development and conversion of a structured, sustainable sales pipeline.
* Improved hit rate from quote to order.
* Consistent, accurate CRM reporting and pipeline visibility.
* Contribution to continuous improvement initiatives across sales and delivery functions.
* Strong internal collaboration and stakeholder engagement.
