Career Opportunity: Area Sales Manager
Location: Field-based (Nationwide travel)
Employment Type: Full-time
Reporting to: Commercial Director

Overview

As NMT continues its trajectory of growth under new and dynamic leadership, we are
seeking an experienced Area Sales Manager to strengthen our commercial team. This
is a pivotal role focused on driving new business and fostering long-term partnerships
across the construction, infrastructure, and industrial sectors.
At NMT, we do things differently. We are looking for a professional who understands
that in the crane industry, technical expertise and commercial delivery go hand-in-hand.

The Role
This is not a typical sales position. You will be expected to talk technically and think
commercially. You will work closely with clients, site teams, and our internal operations
to develop lifting solutions that are practical, safe, and commercially viable.

Key Responsibilities

Business Development: Identify and secure new opportunities across core sectors
including construction and infrastructure.

Account Management: Nurture and expand existing client relationships through consistent value delivery.

Technical Solutions: Interpret complex client requirements to provide bespoke technical
lifting solutions.

Operational Liaison: Collaborate with Appointed Persons (APs) and operational teams
to ensure project feasibility.

Commercial Submissions: Prepare detailed quotations, professional proposals, and
comprehensive tender submissions.

Site Engagement: Conduct nationwide site visits and client meetings to support project
delivery from initial enquiry to completion.

Brand Representation: Represent NMT as a professional, forward-thinking, and safety-
conscious leader in the lifting industry.

What we are looking for

Industry Experience: A proven track record within crane hire, lifting operations, or a
closely related industrial sector.

Technical Knowledge: A strong understanding of lifting equipment, site requirements,
and safety protocols (An AP ticket is highly desirable).

Commercial Acumen: A demonstrated ability to build relationships at every level—from
the site to the boardroom.

Communication: A confident communicator with a proactive, problem-solving mindset.
Mobility: Self-motivated and comfortable with nationwide travel (Full UK Driving License
required).

What we offer

• Competitive salary plus performance-related bonus.
• Company vehicle or car allowance.
• The opportunity to join a growing business with a supportive and highly experienced
  team.
• Exposure to major, high-profile projects across the UK.
• A genuine opportunity to influence the direction of the role and the wider business.

Why NMT?

NMT is a business on the move. We pride ourselves on the intersection of technical
understanding and commercial execution. When we look at a job, we know exactly how
to price it, deliver it, and execute it safely. If you want to work for a business that values
expertise and rewards growth, NMT is the place for you.
