Industrial shredder specialist UNTHA UK has begun the search for the next generation of sales talent, as our rapidly growing business continues to drive change in the world of waste, recycling and sustainability.
Over the last five years, UNTHA UK has grown from a ~£6.5m turnover organisation to a ~£19m+ business. This represents 192% expansion and makes us one of the highest-performing subsidiaries in a global ~€80m+ group.
A relatively lean company, this success has been driven by a strong vision among the SLT, a progressive use of technology – with UNTHA UK being hailed a ‘leading light’ (one of the top 10 organisations) in the Digital Top 100 awards – and a dynamic, team-oriented culture among a committed workforce.
The business has grown to become one of the most recognised and premium brands in the waste machinery sector, with UNTHA’s shredders hitting headline after headline for the environmental transformation they are achieving in industry.
As we set our sights on our next chapter of growth, now is the time to further invest in UNTHA UK’s sales division, adding greater breadth and depth of talent to our hard-working sales and marketing department.
Are you the person we're looking for?
For this field-based role, it's less about location, and more about what you could bring to our progressive business (and hopefully, what we can offer you in return!)
This position will suit a self-starter, who isn't afraid of a target, and who can demonstrate consistent sales success, not simply a health-looking pipeline. Knowledge of our industry would definitely be an advantage, but we would also consider someone with a proven track record of selling high-value capital equipment (with a sales value of £40k-2m) in manufacturing or other industrial environments.
You will be responsible for building your own sales opportunities, developing relationships with our key accounts, and nurturing leads from UNTHA UK's well-oiled marketing activity. Close collaboration with the wider sales team, support staff, and marketing department is crucial. However, it is important to stress that this will be a hands-on, field-based role. The position will therefore suit someone who works in full support of the company’s goals and objectives, but who also seeks their own high-earning potential.
What will really catch our eye?
Sometimes, the most unexpected application stands out from the crowd, so if you think you are the person we're looking for, please let us know. In terms of what will catch our eye, we're currently looking for someone:
