Are you an experienced electron microscopist ready to take your technical knowledge into a commercial setting? Or perhaps you’re already in technical sales and looking for a new challenge with a growing, well-respected scientific instrumentation distributor?

We’re working with a leading supplier of high-end scientific equipment across the UK and Ireland who are looking to appoint a Product Manager for their Electron Microscopy portfolio.

This is a national role offering the chance to represent cutting-edge SEM technology, work closely with researchers and engineers across multiple sectors, and directly influence business growth.

• Carrying out product demonstrations and supporting events such as workshops and roadshows
• Providing technical expertise and insight to customers and internal teams
• Liaising closely with international suppliers to share market feedback and opportunities

You’ll report directly to the Sales Director and collaborate closely with technical and marketing colleagues. The role involves regular UK travel and occasional overseas training with manufacturers.

About You

You’ll bring a strong mix of technical know-how and commercial curiosity, ideally with:

• A degree (or higher) in Materials Science, Physics, or a related discipline
• Previous sales or product management experience within microscopy or scientific instrumentation
• Excellent communication and organisational skills
• A confident, proactive approach with the ability to work independently
• A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel
