Export Sales Director - Lead Growth in Outdoor Recreation

📍 Remote - UK, Germany, Poland, or Spain based only

💼 Full-time | Team management | Strategic leadership

Lead a team that builds better communities - one playground, park, and fitness space at a time.

Our client is a long-established market leader in outdoor recreational solutions, with a powerful track record in design, manufacturing, installation, and service. Their product range spans inclusive play equipment, outdoor gyms, multi-sport courts, and urban furniture.

As they continue expanding their international reach, they're seeking an Export Sales Director to drive commercial success and lead a high-performing sales team across Europe and beyond.

🧱 What you'll be doing:

  • Leading and coaching a team of regional salespeople across multiple countries
  • Overseeing both direct sales and distributor/channel relationships
  • Developing strategic plans to penetrate new markets and grow share in existing ones
  • Aligning closely with internal departments (marketing, operations, product) to ensure smooth execution
  • Reporting on performance, pipeline, and forecasts to senior leadership

🌍 What you'll bring:

  • Proven success in sales leadership, ideally within B2B industries like playground equipment, construction, fitness, or architectural solutions
  • Experience with international channel/distributor networks
  • Commercial agility and a data-driven approach to scaling sales operations
  • A passion for building teams, developing people, and leading with purpose
  • Fluency in English; additional languages (German, Spanish, or Polish) are a plus

This role offers autonomy, flexibility, and the chance to lead growth for a brand people genuinely admire. You'll be joining a team where social purpose meets commercial success - and your leadership will shape how communities experience public space for decades to come.
