Established for over 25 years, my client is a market leader in the supply of water-based process/filtration systems which are supplied to a multitude of sectors across the EMEA region. This $multi-billion business has a presence in over 22 countries worldwide and provides cutting edge, innovative and market-leading solutions for both municipal and industrial water applications. The group has an aggressive and strategic plan to increase sales across the EMEA region and as a result, they are looking for a results-orientated, dynamic, and tenacious Regional Sales Director with a track record in building and developing sales teams to join them.

 

You have full budget control for a $15m revenue stream and the autonomy to create a strategy to organically grow the business by a minimum 15% YOY. Whilst your role will be strategic (setting and executing strategies), at the start a large proportion of your time will be spent hands-on at the coal face generating business alongside the sales team and supporting them. Initially, you will manage two Business Development Managers across Eastern and Western Europe and the plan will be to increase this to 6-8 over the coming years. As a result of this growth, your role will become more strategic and less hands-on.

 

Reporting to the Vice President of Sales, you will have full control to drive top-line sales and to increase profitability, therefore, we are keen to recruit an experienced Regional Sales Director with a  proven track record in business growth within water/process organisations - your experience in creating and deploying effective sales and business growth strategies will be key to this role.
