Player Manager - Maritime Tech

Location: Surrey, UK (Hybrid - 2 days in the office)

Pareto are excited to be partnering with a true global leader in satellite communications to find their next Player Manager. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a highly respected, engineering-led company that has been at the forefront of remote connectivity for over 50 years.

About Our Client

With a rich history of innovation, our client is a global heavyweight in satellite communications and IT management solutions. They are the go-to provider for keeping people and businesses connected across the maritime, energy, and government sectors. Known for their engineering-led approach, they design, build, and integrate cutting-edge solutions across a global network, ensuring their customers can thrive in the digital era. From project-managed ship-build packages to full bridge refits, they set the gold standard in systems integration.

The Role

We are looking for a hands-on Player Manager - someone who can both drive their own sales and guide a small, dedicated team to success. You'll be at the heart of their sales operation, with a primary focus on selling NAVCOM solutions into the commercial maritime sector.

This is a dynamic role where you'll be:

• Hunting for new business and nurturing existing client relationships.

• Selling a wide range of cutting-edge NAVCOM and communication solutions.

• Managing and mentoring two direct reports.

• Working closely with technical teams to deliver top-notch service.

• Keeping an ear to the ground and feeding market intelligence back to the leadership team.

Who We're Looking For

Our client is looking for someone who has:

• Extensive, demonstrable experience selling NAVCOM solutions directly to the commercial maritime industry. This is the most critical requirement for the role and is a non-negotiable must-have.

• A natural ability to lead, with at least 3 years of experience managing a team.

• A willingness to travel extensively to meet clients. This isn't your typical 9-to-5.

• Excellent communication skills, comfortable presenting to everyone from engineers to the C-suite.

• The ability to obtain UK SC security clearance.

This is a superb opportunity for a driven, commercially-savvy sales leader with a deep passion for the maritime industry.
