Additional Information

The position is an unusual mixture of “sales representative”, “technical support person” and “hydraulic system designer”.

They require a person with good interpersonal skills to maintain and build relationships with customers, and seek out potential new customers. The technical support aspect comes with answering questions about their products and their applications, and with fault finding existing products and systems.

A good memory will help with this role as they have a wide range of products available, and may be applied in many different ways. The system designing role is a challenging one because they are often asked to design prototype machines with incomplete information and design parameters.

So they are looking for someone unique who is up to this task, and if you are successful it is an extremely interesting and rewarding position.

They will provide a suitable remuneration package appropriate to the applicant. The work environment is friendly, flexible & has a good team atmosphere.

Being a group of companies, often opportunities arise for those with suitable attitude & drive to advance their career.

If this role sounds like you, please send a full and detailed Resume along with a covering letter of application outlining your abilities as it relates to this role.
