Building a sustainable European technical sales & engineering team?
Our European reach, local expertise and vast candidate network make it simple to attract and hire high-performing, local talent.
Providing a bespoke technical sales & engineering recruitment strategy.
If you’re seeking to extend your sales or engineering team into European markets, outsourcing might seem like the obvious choice. However, there’s another avenue worth exploring: partnering with a specialist recruitment agency to build your localised team.
We recognise the hurdles involved in expanding sales and engineering teams into new territories. That’s why we provide bespoke solutions aimed at growing your in-house team, offering strategic guidance, advice, and connecting you with high-performing professionals in the European market.

Our Recruitment Models
Every company’s hiring needs are different, so we’ve designed three flexible recruitment models — all built on the same collaborative approach. Whether you need support with a single vacancy, a retained search for a critical hire, or a dedicated talent acquisition partner, each model gives you the expertise, transparency, and results Mase Consulting is known for.
Retingency Recruitment
- Consultative and collaborative approach
- Proactive sourcing of active and passive candidates
- Market mapping and headhunting services
- Dedicated account manager

This is a flexible, non-committal way to work with us. It combines the consultative approach and headhunting of a retained partnership, but with the pay-on-success model of contingency recruitment, meaning you only pay when a placement has been made.
Ideal for employers who want to fill a role, but aren’t ready to commit to a full retained partnership. Whilst this does not include some of the added features and benefits of our other recruitment models, it still provides you with access to our expertise, extensive network and tailored approach.
Retained Recruitment
Everything in our Retingency Model, plus:
- Candidate Behavioural Assessments for final-stage candidates
- Salary Benchmarking
- Discounts on recruitment fees applied
- Personally led by our Recruitment Director, who has over 24 years of success delivering niche and challenging hiring assignments.

A staged payment model, led by our recruitment director, that secures dedicated support for your role. The total fee is split into three equal instalments, one-third to initiate our services, one-third on CV shortlist, and the final one-third upon offer acceptance. Should the chosen candidate fail to start the final one-third would be refunded.
Ready-to-go Talent Acquisition Team
Everything in our Retingency Model, plus:
- Candidate Behavioural Assessments for final-stage candidates
- Salary Benchmarking
- Higher discounts on recruitment fees applied
- Personally led by our Recruitment Director, who has over 24 years of success delivering niche and challenging hiring assignments.
- Dedicated recruiter(s) working exclusively and solely on your hiring projects
- Weekly activity reports and progress updates

We act as an extension of your internal talent acquisition team, supporting you through periods of planned or unexpected recruitment demand.
Our time is booked and paid for in six-week increments, during which we allocate dedicated internal resources, including team members who work solely and exclusively on your hiring needs.
Recruitment fees are paid in addition on any successful hires; however these are heavily discounted compared with our standard terms, and you’ll receive detailed weekly activity reports showing the number of CVs reviewed, candidates contacted, interviewed, and submitted. This partnership can be extended, allowing us to continue covering multiple roles in line with your priorities.
Ideal for businesses in periods of high growth, but without the time or budget to increase their own internal hiring team.
The benefits of employing an in-house European technical sales & engineering team.
Motivation
In-house technical sales and engineering professionals are more likely to be motivated, inspired, and dedicated to your company’s mission, goals, and success. They will be more efficient at selling your products or services because they exclusively work towards your business’s values and objectives.
Cultural Fit
These professionals understand the local culture and business environment, which is crucial when expanding into new markets such as Europe. An in-house team ensures that your business strategies align closely with the specific needs and preferences of the market, leading to increased trust from customers, as well as greater brand awareness and sales opportunities.
More Control
Having an in-house team provides greater control over processes, from setting targets to tracking progress and measuring success. This allows for continuous improvement of your business strategies. Additionally, you can promptly address any issues and make adjustments as needed to capitalise on new opportunities.

Want to know where to position your salaries to attract top European talent?
Salary benchmarking, also known as ‘compensation benchmarking,’ involves a detailed analysis of the market value for specific roles. For employers looking to expand, particularly in building European technical sales and engineering teams, our salary benchmarking services offer critical insights to help you competitively position your salaries.
Unlike a standard salary survey, which provides average salaries based on limited metrics, our benchmarking goes deeper. It considers various factors such as location, education, market sector, company size, and experience level.
The data gathered during our benchmarking process is customised to meet the unique requirements of each client. By thoroughly analysing the market and your competitors, we help establish a robust set of benchmarks for your salary offerings.
This ensures you can effectively position yourself in the European market to attract and retain top local talent with competitive salary and compensation packages.
Our results speak for themselves, but it’s great to hear why employers choose us.
Managing Director
I’ve had a number of Technical Sales Managers and Field Service Engineers from Mase and each and every one of them are still with us today. Mase really know their stuff and know my business really well having taken time to visit the office multiple times. This really shows in the quality of candidates they supply. Great work as ever!
Managing Director
Mase are brilliant to deal with. They have recruited a number of individuals for our engineering business and they are my first port of call when I do recruit. They are knowledgable and consult, without being pushy.
Chief Marketing Officer
Mase have worked on a couple of assignments for me, and I’ve been really happy with the effort that has been put into their process. In particular, there’s a lot of candidate pre-screening that gets done, which means I only spend time talking to serious candidates. As a result, we’ve filled those roles with great people. When I talk to candidates, it’s clear that the team takes a lot of time and care about treating them well, which is important when I’m choosing a recruitment partner. So whether employer or candidate, I’d recommend Mase Consulting.
Commercial Director
Mase Consulting is one of the most trustworthy and professional recruitment businesses I’ve had the pleasure of working with. One of the major challenges I face is having a recruiter understand my industry and the skills associated with it, but Mase definitely excel at this. They have helped me fill various difficult and challenging roles over the last 10 years, and have saved me invaluable time wading through CVs. In the vast majority of cases we have succeeded in securing candidates from them. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Managing Director
Against all odds, Mase Consulting came up with a candidate who fitted our requirements perfectly. They spent time asking the right questions in the early stages, which meant they came back with a number of relevant options for review. We look forward to working with the team again.
Global Sales & Marketing Director
I have used Mase Consulting on more than one occasion to help me place key staff. They are extremely professional and very good at finding excellent candidates. I can highly recommend them.
Head of National Accounts
Mase Consulting have always been focused and enthusiastic on the Key Account Management vacancies we have worked together on. They are great at pushing projects to completion within tight deadlines.
Managing Director
The energy and determination Mase demonstrate in fulfilling assignments is fantastic. I have yet to meet another recruitment business that shares that level of passion and enthusiasm. They leave no stone unturned, which makes the hiring process straightforward and effective.
Service Manager
Having spent 8 unsuccessful months searching for a Service Engineer to service our specialist scientific equipment, it was a relief to finally find a recruitment company who took a proactive approach to sourcing. We had resigned ourselves to the fact that the skills we required didn’t exist, however we were pleasantly surprised when Mase delivered on their promise and presented 3 high-profile candidates. Following a successful round of interviews, an offer was accepted and the successful candidate starts with us next week.
National Sales Manager
Having worked with Mase Consulting for a number of years, I believe tenacity is one of their key strengths. They have now successfully placed four difficult-to-find individuals within my team, all of whom are still with the business today.
HR Assistant
Mase Consulting’s thorough understanding of the industry and 1st class sales ability means they are always able to identify candidates who otherwise would not be on the market. Mase Consulting holds a firm place as our first choice recruitment partner as we can always count on them to find those special gems.
Global VP Sales & Marketing
We were very impressed with Mase Consulting. Having worked with other recruiters for several months and going through the frustration of continually explaining the skills and team fit we required, we finally hit gold with Mase. They were able to listen to our needs and deliver a number of relevant candidates within two weeks. We could have happily hired any of the candidates shortlisted by their team.
General Manager
Thanks for all your help! Mase have proven invaluable to us as a business and have always delivered the right fit for our team. They have proven to be very good at listening and understanding the brief accurately.
Managing Director
We’re often looking for niche skills and difficult-to-find individuals, but have struggled to find a recruiter that can consistently deliver. From our first meeting with Mase, we found their enthusiasm for delivery and results-driven approach refreshing. We’ve now worked together on three separate assignments, all successful.
Sales Director
We have worked with Mase Consulting for over 7 years and they have continually gone above and beyond to deliver the mix of technical and commercial skills we have needed to grow our UK operation. They have demonstrated a fantastic understanding of our market and I would highly recommend them to others.
European HR Manager
Mase is focused on what we require, ensuring the candidates they put forward for selection are an excellent fit both technically and culturally. I’ve found the team to be very dedicated and engaged in the various recruitment drives we’ve worked on and I have no hesitation in recommending them to others who need results.
Director
I have used Mase for the last 6 years across numerous functions in the business, and the quality of candidates they have put forward have been first class. The candidates had clearly been vetted and interviewed prior to our meeting, which made the selection process easier. I would highly recommend Mase Consulting to other companies.
Business Unit Director
We have worked with Mase for over 5 years, and I believe consistency is one of their biggest strengths. Together, we’ve been able to build a business relationship and understanding of how we operate and what our business requirements are. We provide clear guidelines of our requirements from Sales, Manufacturing and Logistics, and Mase provide the candidates. We’re a very busy company, but Mase respect this, so you don’t get the constant hassle. Don’t ask me where they find the candidates from, but they do. They do what it says on the tin.
