It started 10 years ago, finding Sales people for a Manufacturer in the Midlands. From there, I have worked with a wide range of companies within this sector. SME Distributors to the biggest brand name manufacturers in the sector, covering everything thing from Front end to back end, bottom to the top. I’ve made this an area of specialism now, due to the sector growing over the past 10 years.
Sales Engineers
Also Known as Project Sales Engineers. These guys are out on the road, getting in front of the that Internet supplier, Supermarket, manufacturer and everything in between, selling Racking, Automation, Mobile Racking, High density storage solutions, Mezzanine floors and everything structural around it. Some now Auto cad, some don’t, but what is important they know their sector.
Installation
A lot of companies we work with, outsource installation, some have an inhouse team. This team of fitters, travel around the country whipping up a few shelves to full blown structures.
Project Engineers
Project Engineers, working across their given area, making sure the projects are on schedule, solving problems, kicking bums, and identifying new areas of business. Project Engineers normally take the full life cycle of an installation and get it too completion.
SEMA Inspectors
We’ve come across SEMA inspectors a few times where we have recruited for internal ones. They tend to be External guys. But we have experienced these extremely important part of a process.
Support functions
Sales Support, technical support, admin, the back office that keeps the wheels moving. Nearly every company we have worked with has had a need in this area. We know they have to understand technical information, sometimes dealing with drawings, and being able to order/chase and deal with customers daily.
Sales Managers/Directors
Managing a team of Salespeople requires a tenacity that only Sales Managers understand. Maybe you have a large team, or you are building a team. A Sales manager keeps the plan on point, supports the team, and understands what success looks like. Sales Managers/Directors Keeps those wheels turning, and the ROI coming in.
Design & Engineering
I know how important the right type of design engineer is in this sector. Understanding how Storage solutions are designed. Sometimes Load calculations, dealing with structural elements – its important these people know the nuances of design of a structure, and where possible the technology used to make it work.
