The Company
Our client is a marketing leading EPC business in the engineering sector who deliver projects across the drinks, food and pharmaceutical sectors. The business is a huge success story having grown from a £25 million to in excess of £100 million in the last several years seeing the company grow from 125 staff to in excess of 300.
The business offers a full turnkey solution to their customer base from concept design of project, procurement of equipment through to integration and commissioning of the project at customer site.
The business has a huge opportunity to expand their Service & Aftersales division due to increasing customer demand for services with a business plan in place to grow the division from £3 million to £10 million in the next few years.
The key services on offer include spares provision, on site maintenance and repair of installed equipment and remote support on systems.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone from a Service Management or Aftersales Management type background to come in, take the department forward from a blank canvass and to build the division to be an integral part of the business.
The Role

The key focuses for the role will be:
- Formulation of the services in place for service and aftersales – defining the organisational structure, defining best practices and how the services should be sold, determining spares offering and development of appropriate KPIs for the division.
- Creating framework agreements for service and aftermarket offerings for customers ranging from monthly service charge agreements through to 1-3 year service and spares plans.
- Raising the profile of the service and aftermarket services across the business – meetings with the senior leadership team, creating tangible objectives that need to happen to create awareness and demand.
- Designing tailored aftermarket service packages for larger customers – this could involve bespoke follow up services the business doesn’t currently offer and ascertaining how these could be delivered.
- Creating the plan for growth – taking the lead on discussing the service and aftermarket offerings with customers.
- Presenting service and aftersales offerings to customers to showcase their benefits and to create demand for the services.
