Sales Manager (Cable Sector) - #190274

Cathay Investments Limited


Date: 8 hours ago
City: Croydon
Contract type: Full time
Location: Croydon

Salary: £50,000 base + performance-related bonus + benefits

Position Type: Full-time, Permanent

Ready to plug into a global market?

We aren’t looking for a standard account manager who wants to sit at a desk all day. We are looking for a high-energy, autonomous Sales Manager to own and expand our international "Cable" segment.

We manufacture high-quality, technically specified nonwoven materials that keep the world connected. If you’ve ever wanted to be the driving force behind major international supply chains, positioning specialized solutions to top-tier manufacturers of high-voltage, offshore, and subsea cables, this is your arena.

Based out of our Croydon office, this is a standalone, high-impact role reporting directly to the Director. You’ll have full autonomy to hunt new business and manage strategic global accounts.

The Mission (What You’ll Actually Be Doing)

Own the Strategy: Design and execute the annual sales plan to expand our global market share.

Hunt & Nurture: Identify new market potentials, map out international OEMs and cable manufacturers, and build rock-solid, long-term commercial relationships.

Close the Deals: Lead high-level commercial and technical negotiations, from the initial pitch right through to final contracts and pricing strategies.

Be the Expert: Advise clients on bespoke material solutions, matching our specialized product specs to their complex engineering requirements.

What You Bring To The Table

The Right Blend: A degree in Business with a technical mindset, or a Technical/Engineering degree with a sharp commercial edge.

Proven Track Record: Several years of experience in international technical sales or business development for industrial products. (If you already know the cable or subsea industry, you're at the top of our list).

An Entrepreneurial Spirit: This is an individual contributor role. You need to be a self-starter who thrives on autonomy, loves the thrill of the chase, and doesn't need hand-holding.

World-Class Communication: Flawless English communication skills and the confidence to negotiate with stakeholders globally.

What’s in it for you?

Base Salary: £50,000 per annum.

Bonus: A bonus that rewards your direct impact on revenue growth.

Autonomy: No micromanagement. You own your pipeline, your strategy, and your results.

Support: Backed by a stellar internal Customer Services team to handle order processing and logistics, leaving you free to focus on closing deals.
