International Sales Manager - APAC

Job description

• Performance based bonus (~20% OTE, with no ceiling)
• Benefits include healthcare scheme, profit share & share incentive scheme
• Hybrid working
• Drive global growth in a high-impact technical sales role

Are you an experienced sales professional who thrives in international markets and enjoys building long-term commercial success?

This is an opportunity to join an ambitious and globally respected business, where you’ll be supporting growing industries such as electric vehicles, battery technology, and advanced research.

With 95% of revenue generated internationally, you will take ownership of a critical global region and play a key role in shaping future growth. You’ll manage the Asia-Pacific region, further developing an established distributor network while identifying new opportunities across emerging markets. This isn’t transactional sales; you’ll be building strategic, value-led partnerships and positioning their premium, high-spec products.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Managing and developing distributor relationships across China, Japan, Korea, and wider APAC
• Identifying and onboarding new partners in high-growth territories (e.g. Thailand, Vietnam)
• Helping to build and execute a regional sales strategy
• Driving high-value, low-volume sales (£70k–£500k systems)
• Travelling internationally (typically 30–50%) to build strong, in-person relationships
• Supporting long-term growth in key markets, particularly China
• Collaborating with technical and marketing teams to deliver tailored solutions
• Contributing to forecasting, reporting, and strategic planning
• Gradually taking on broader responsibilities, including supporting international operations

The Candidate – International Sales Manager

• 5–8 years’ experience in technical or capital equipment sales
• Experience managing distributors or channel partners
• Track record of solution-based, value-led selling
• Comfortable operating in international markets
• Happy to travel internationally – roughly 6-8 trips per year
• Able to build relationships across cultures and adapt your approach
