Job Opportunities

Martin Lishman Ltd is a market-leading innovator in the Agri-Tech manufacturing sector, proudly celebrating 50 years of UK manufacturing and innovation in 2025. We design and supply a wide range of specialist products for the agriculture, horticulture, and sports turf industries. This year has seen a surge in UK compact sprayer sales and the launch of our new-generation Barn Owl Wireless remote monitoring system – all part of an exciting period of growth and innovation. As we continue to build on this momentum, we are now looking for a UK Sales Manager to take over an established role and help drive our next chapter of success.

The Role
As a key member of our close knit sales team, you’ll take ownership of our UK sales activity – managing and developing strong relationships with our nationwide dealer network and customer base. You’ll play a vital role in maintaining momentum in our established markets while helping to introduce and promote exciting new innovations from our in-house R&D team, including our recently launched crop storage remote monitoring system.

This is a hybrid role, involving regular travel across the UK and time spent at our Bourne HQ. You’ll visit dealers, attend trade shows and exhibitions, and support customers with on site visits where more in depth discussions or detailed quotes are required. You’ll ensure that customers continue to receive the expert advice and personal service that Martin Lishman is known for. There may also be opportunities to get involved in export sales support, depending on your interests and experience.

Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone with:

• Field sales experience (minimum 2 years), ideally in a B2B or technical setting
• Strong existing connections within the UK agricultural dealer network (preferred)
• An agricultural background or a strong understanding of the industry (preferred)
• Excellent communication, relationship-building, and negotiation skills
• A proactive, self-motivated approach with strong attention to detail
• A clean UK driving licence
• A collaborative mindset and a willingness to support colleagues as part of a team

Previous technical or product knowledge is not essential – full training will be provided.

What We Offer

• Starting salary from £36,000 (depending on experience)
• Access to company vehicles and mobile phone
• Generous holiday allowance + company pension
• Hybrid working options available
• A positive, supportive team culture with a strong focus on work/life balance

Interested?
If this sounds like your kind of opportunity, we’d love to hear from you. Please send your CV and a covering letter to emilia@martinlishman.com explaining why you’d be a great fit.
