Sales Engineer – Southern Region

Recruitment Consultant to transfer into a Business Development Opportunity

Excellent opportunity to transfer your skills from recruitment sales and move into the EV sector as a Sales Engineer, with full training on offer.

Location: Flexible (Home-based role with travel as required to client meetings, and an office visit once a month to catch up with the Sales Manager).

Salary: £35,000 - £40,000 basic + Car + Package

Role:

The Resolute Group is working in partnership with a growing electrical contractor who operates UK-wide across Low Voltage (EV) to High Voltage (Substations) projects. With the business expanding, we are recruiting across multiple divisions to handle the project pipeline, while also looking for future Sales Engineers who want to transfer their skills.

This role would be perfect for a Recruitment Consultant working in the Construction, Engineering, EV, Energy, or Infrastructure space. You will be used to speaking to white-collar professionals such as Project Managers, Operations Directors, and Procurement Managers.

This is a fantastic opportunity to leave recruitment and move into commercial, industrial, and B2B sales. The role focuses on the EV market, targeting either larger fleets, charging hubs, and major EV installations, or smaller private installations of five units and under. Our client controls the full process from design and planning through to the installation of the equipment.

Your role will be client-focused. You will target accounts identified alongside the Sales Manager, then secure meetings to sell our products and services. Full product training is provided, with additional engineering qualifications available if you wish to move into a Tendering Engineer role in the future—linking the stakeholder interface with the technical aspects of creating successful bids.

Day-to-day, you will be home-based, arranging your own diary around the parameters set out by the Sales Manager, with support available at head office or regional offices if required. While home-based, your focus will be on attending meetings and making introductions. KPIs are centered around generating leads rather than converting them, as conversion is handled by the Tendering team. Your goal is simply getting in front of the right people who hold budgetary responsibilities.

Qualifications & Experience:

• Recruitment Background: White-collar experience within Construction, Engineering, Infrastructure, Energy, or EV.
• Sales Engineer Aptitude: A basic understanding of electrical engineering would be great, but the main focus is on generating meetings and introductions.

"This is not about chasing names and numbers; this is about speaking to people, building rapport, and setting up meetings to be that vital first introduction for the organisation."
