With Northern Ireland being a new venture for the organisation, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to make a real impact, establish the territory and position themselves strongly for future career progression within a large, globally established business.

You will be responsible for developing new business across Northern Ireland, identifying opportunities, building relationships and providing customers with tailored materials handling and warehouse solutions.

The product portfolio includes:

With Northern Ireland representing a new territory for the business, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to:

• Build and develop their own territory.
• Have genuine ownership and visibility within the business.
• Make a significant commercial impact.
• Benefit from a strong brand and established product portfolio.
