Sales Manager – Maritime, Government & Defence · Location: Singapore
The Opportunity
A satellite communications specialist with over 50 years of engineering pedigree and a market-leading reputation across UK and European government and defence markets is opening a government and defence sales territory in Singapore for the first time. This is genuinely greenfield: no inherited pipeline, no legacy baggage, and budget already signed off at CEO level. The right person builds this from zero.
The Impact You Will Have
- Build and own a brand-new government and defence sales function in Singapore from a blank sheet
- Report directly to the Regional Director, Asia Pacific, with full autonomy over territory and strategy
- Open relationships across government, defence and maritime security customers in a market this business has never before explored
- Draw on direct, hands-on support from an established UK and European government-side specialist team from day one
- Shape how an already category-leading satcom business enters an entirely new vertical in the region
What Success Looks Like
- 5+ years’ sales experience across maritime and/or government and defence sectors, ideally with a forces, security or public-sector background
- A genuine personal network across government, defence or maritime security in Singapore and the wider Asia Pacific region
- A relationship-led seller who sells on value, not the first to discount when a deal gets competitive
- Comfortable operating independently within a lean, autonomous set-up, with no hand-holding
- A track record of staying the course and building real, lasting relationships rather than moving on every couple of years
What Is on Offer
- A genuine blank-sheet market entry, not someone else’s inherited patch
- Full autonomy, with a flexible, largely self-directed working pattern
- Performance-driven commission structure alongside a competitive base
- The backing of an established global engineering and support organisation behind a lean regional structure
- Visible, attributable impact from year one, building a new market from the ground up
This is a rare opportunity to shape a new territory rather than manage someone else’s. If that sounds like your kind of challenge, we would like to hear from you.
