Are you already leading sales activity in the automotive aftermarket… but looking for a role with more influence, stronger brands and genuine long-term career progression?

Do you want the opportunity to lead national aftermarket relationships while developing your leadership profile within a globally recognised OE manufacturer?

This is a rare opportunity to lead the area sales team for a true global market leader. 

Ideally, you will be based in the central region of the UK; however, consideration will be given to those further afield. 


Why Apply?

  • £67,000 basic salary with annual bonus up to 10%
  • Company car, currently a Range Rover Evoque PHEV, with future vehicle choice options
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Strong employer pension contribution of 8.5%
  • Private healthcare with 70% company contribution after probation
  • Life insurance at 4x salary
  • Dental and eye care contributions
  • Daily allowance for field-based activity
  • The opportunity to work for one of the world’s most recognised OE aftermarket brands
  • A role with genuine long-term career development and progression opportunities

The Opportunity

I’m working with a globally recognised aftermarket brand with a long-standing reputation for OE quality, technical innovation and strong distribution partnerships.

This is a high-profile national sales leadership role within the aftermarket division.

You’ll work closely with the General Sales & Marketing Manager, helping drive sales performance, develop strategic customer relationships and support the continued growth of key aftermarket accounts across the UK.

The role combines leadership, commercial strategy and relationship management, making it ideal for someone who enjoys both developing people and driving business performance.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leading, developing and supporting the regional field sales team
  • Managing and growing relationships with key account groups across the automotive aftermarket
  • Supporting sales strategy, customer development plans and profitable growth initiatives
  • Analysing sales performance and implementing corrective action where required
  • Working closely with marketing, customer service, technical and finance teams
  • Supporting pricing strategy, distribution analysis and promotional activity
  • Building strong relationships across motor factors, buying groups and wider aftermarket channels
  • Representing the business professionally across the aftermarket network

About You

This role will suit you if you:

  • Have strong experience within the UK automotive aftermarket
  • Understand motor factors, distribution networks and buying groups
  • Have experience in field sales leadership, national accounts or aftermarket sales management
  • Enjoy leading people while remaining commercially hands-on
  • Can build strong customer relationships and influence at multiple levels
  • Want a role with long-term progression and wider strategic exposure

About the Company

Our client is part of a globally recognised OE automotive group with a strong reputation across the international aftermarket for quality, innovation and technical excellence.

The business continues to invest heavily in both its people and aftermarket growth strategy, offering employees strong career development opportunities within a collaborative and well-supported environment.
