About You

You will be able to demonstrate a proven track record in seeking opportunities and delivering client focused solutions.  Whilst ideally you will be experienced working in sectors that utilise cable wiring solutions, if you have the ability to generate sales within a technical and engineering environment, and are able to build trusted partnerships with our clients, then we would love to hear from you.

If you thrive in an environment where you can use your superb interpersonal skills to proactively seek opportunities to deliver client focused solutions, then this is the role for you. 

Please note that this role is field based and so you will require your own car and a full UK driving licence. (car allowance provided)

If this sounds like the opportunity you’re looking for, please send your CV and covering letter outlining what you could bring to the role to recruitment@smi.group


Please be aware that this role will be subject to obtaining security clearance. This means that factors including your nationality, any previous nationalities you have held, and/or your place of birth may limit those roles that you can perform for the organisation.


Due to the volume of applications we receive, we sometimes close our vacancies early. It is therefore advisable to apply as early as possible if you would like to be considered for this role.
