Sales Recruitment for AGV, AMR & Robotics
Search for mid to senior commercial hires across AGV, AMR and robotics, including solution sales managers, business development specialists, pre-sales consultants and application engineers. We screen for people who can carry long, consultative, high-value deals across technical and operational stakeholders.
Robotics is the fastest moving part of warehouse automation. Automated guided vehicles, autonomous mobile robots, goods to person systems and robotic picking are changing how warehouses operate, and the businesses selling them compete hard for a small pool of people who can sell complex, high-value, consultative solutions. Evara recruits the commercial talent who manage long sales cycles, work with technical and operational stakeholders, and turn robotics capability into measurable customer value.
Selling robotics is consultative, technical and high stakes. The best people understand throughput, return on investment, integration risk and the operational pressures their customers live with, and they can hold credible conversations from the warehouse floor to the boardroom. Evara is a UK intralogistics commercial recruiter that knows this market and the people in it, and we screen for solution sellers who can carry a long, complex deal rather than transactional closers.
Pay in AGV, AMR and robotics is driven by deal size, the length and complexity of the sales cycle, and the technical depth required to win. Solution sellers and pre-sales consultants who can carry large, multi-stakeholder capital projects command more than transactional sellers. Reward typically reflects the long cycle, often with commission weighted to closed and delivered projects, and rises with the seniority of the stakeholders engaged and the scale of the solutions sold.
How we work
01
We start with a structured kick-off that captures the commercial objective, not just the title. Reporting line, package, the deal sizes the person will sell, the technical buyers they will sell to, and the behaviours that succeed in your environment.
02
We map where the right people actually sit, across direct competitors, adjacent intralogistics sub-sectors and proven environments in your region. This becomes the longlist of candidates we approach, not just whoever is on the job boards this week.
03
Candidates are approached with a clear commercial narrative, not a job advert. We communicate the opportunity, the products, the customers and the growth path, so only genuinely relevant people move forward.
04
Two structured commercial screens before a candidate ever reaches you. Track record validation, deal-stage probing, technical credibility and a credibility check on the numbers they have actually delivered.
05
You receive a considered shortlist, not a CV flood. Each candidate is presented with strengths, potential risks and a fit assessment. We then support the process through to offer, acceptance and the first 90 days.

FAQs
Business development and solution sales managers, pre-sales and solutions consultants, application and sales engineers, key account managers, and sales leadership up to Commercial Director, for AGV, AMR, goods to person and robotic picking businesses.
The pool of people who can sell complex, high-value robotics solutions is small, and the candidates are highly visible and in demand. Winning the best of them needs confidential, well-briefed approaches rather than advertising.
Yes. Pre-sales and solutions consultants are central to winning robotics deals and are one of the scarcest parts of the market, so they are a core part of our work in this segment.
Yes. We support automation OEMs, integrators and robotics businesses building or scaling UK commercial functions, from individual solution sellers to full sales and pre-sales teams and the leadership above them.
A typical retained search runs 6 to 10 weeks from kick-off to offer accepted. Senior searches sit at the longer end of that range. We will not rush a shortlist to hit an arbitrary deadline.
No. Every Evara search is retained on a two-payment structure: a commitment deposit paid up front to cover the strategic work, and a completion fee invoiced on day 60 of the placed candidate's employment. This protects the rigour of the process and means we are accountable for the outcome, not for activity.
