Location:
Westerham

Salary:
Competitive

Job Type: Full-time, Permanent

About us:

This is a full-time, permanent role with Autoflame Engineering Ltd, a company specializing in boiler and burner systems. The specific location is not detailed in the provided document, but the role involves field-based work, requiring travel to various sites.

About the Role:

We're looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Graduate Technical Sales Engineer to join our team and support the Technical Account Manager.

This is an excellent opportunity for a recent engineering graduate with strong people skills and a keen interest in international sales.

The role involves regular travel to Latin American region and the Iberian Peninsula (Spain & Portugal), offering the chance to engage directly with clients, gain a solid understanding of their technical needs, and play a hands-on role in expanding our international presence.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide technical support and expertise throughout the sales process
  • Assist in the preparation of proposals, presentations, and tenders tailored to customer requirements
  • Liaise with engineering and production teams to ensure customer specifications are fully met
  • Support the Technical Account Manager in managing client relationships and identifying new business opportunities
  • Conduct market research and competitor analysis within assigned regions
  • Attend trade shows, exhibitions, and client meetings
  • Prepare and submit detailed visit reports and customer feedback

Overall Summary:

Autoflame Engineering is the world leader in combustion management and control systems, renowned for quality and innovation, and based in Biggin Hill, Kent. Due to sustained growth and increasing demand for energy-efficient solutions, we are seeking graduates or trainees to join our Technical Sales division.

The successful candidate will have a strong background in electrical, mechanical, or process engineering. We're looking for someone who is an excellent communicator and confident in providing technical support to our global customer base

Nature of Supervision

The Graduate Technical Sales Engineer will work directly under the supervision of the Technical Account Manager, receiving guidance and mentorship on sales strategies, client engagement, and technical support. While initial tasks will be closely managed to support training and development, the role is expected to become increasingly autonomous over time. The successful candidate should demonstrate initiative, take accountability, and be capable of working independently-particularly when travelling internationally or representing the company at client meetings and industry events.

Please note that the company does not offer sponsorship and therefore candidates must have the legal right to live and work in the UK to be considered for this role. Due to the nature of the role, it is also essential that candidates hold a full UK driving licence to be considered.

Communication and Influence

This role requires excellent communication skills to effectively convey complex technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences. The Graduate Technical Sales Engineer must build strong working relationships with internal teams, including engineering, production, and senior sales management, to ensure customer requirements are fully understood and delivered.

Externally, the role demands confident communication with international clients, distributors, and stakeholders-often across diverse cultures and business environments. The ability to listen actively, present tailored solutions, and influence purchasing decisions is essential. As a representative of the company overseas, the engineer must maintain professionalism, cultural sensitivity, and credibility to support sustainable business growth.

Organisational Impact:

As a key support to the Technical Account Manager, the Graduate Technical Sales Engineer plays a crucial role in driving the company's international growth. By providing technical expertise, nurturing client relationships, and contributing to the successful acquisition and retention of global customers, the role directly supports sales growth and market expansion.

Education and Experience

  • A degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or a related discipline)
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Fluent in Portuguese & Spanish
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities
  • Willingness and ability to travel internationally, often at short notice
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Valid UK passport with the right to work in the UK
  • Cultural awareness and adaptability when working across international markets
  • Commercial awareness or previous sales experience is advantageous
