Search for mid to senior commercial hires across conveyors and sortation, including solution sales managers, sales engineers, pre-sales consultants and project sales managers. We screen for people who can carry engineered, project-led capital sales across long procurement cycles. On the ground in Warrington and across the wider North West conveyors & sortation cluster.
Warrington's position at the M6 and M62 intersection makes it one of the most commercially well-connected logistics locations in the country, with major distribution parks and a heavy concentration of contract logistics and fulfilment operations. That density drives high-volume demand for forklift dealers, racking and shelving installers, conveyor and sortation suppliers and warehouse automation integrators. The town draws on both the Manchester and Liverpool talent pools, giving it one of the deeper commercial catchments in the North West.
The North West's concentration of distribution, e-commerce and parcel operations, served by the M6 and M62 and the Port of Liverpool, makes it an important market for conveyor and sortation systems. The warehousing clusters around Manchester and Warrington are exactly the kind of high-volume operations these systems are designed for.

Conveyor and sortation commercial talent is specialist and engineering-led. Many of the strongest sellers and sales engineers have a technical background and move between systems manufacturers and integrators, carrying credibility on system design and throughput. The pool of people who can manage large, multi-stakeholder capital projects from specification through to award is limited, and they tend to be loyal to employers with a strong delivery reputation, so confidential approaches and a clear brief are key.
Pay in conveyors and sortation is driven by project size, system complexity and the length of the procurement cycle. Solution sellers and sales engineers who carry large, engineered capital projects are rewarded above transactional roles, often with incentives tied to project award and delivery. Reward rises with the technical content of the sale, the scale of the systems involved and the seniority of the stakeholders engaged across long buying processes.
Warrington Bank Quay and Central give direct services to Manchester (30 min), Liverpool (25 min) and London (under 2hr). The M6, M62 and M56 intersect within minutes of the town.
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.
