The Brief
We were contacted by a UK-based manufacturer of LV and MV power distribution systems to recruit a National Sales Manager. The business had ambitious growth plans but had been unable to secure someone with the right blend of technical understanding and national account experience. Their internal team had spent months advertising the role with little success.
The Process
We engaged with the Sales Director to define the ideal profile – someone with knowledge of power distribution products such as switchgear, panelboards, and control centres, along with a track record of working with contractors and consultants.
We conducted a targeted search, approaching candidates from direct competitors and suppliers operating within the electrical infrastructure and utilities markets. Each candidate was assessed on both their technical product knowledge and strategic account development ability.
The Result
The client hired a highly experienced National Sales Manager with deep knowledge of electrical distribution systems and strong commercial awareness. The recruitment process was completed in just 16 working days. Following the success of this appointment, we were subsequently entrusted with a further four roles across the UK, demonstrating the client’s confidence in our ability to deliver high-quality candidates quickly and efficiently.
What the Client had to Say
“Mase quickly understood the technical demands of the role and the type of individual we needed. The shortlist was strong and the process was handled with real efficiency.”
