Emerson is hiring a full-time Sales Manager for their Ireland-based installed-base business, blending team leadership of an account management team with direct ownership of strategic customer accounts and revenue targets. The role is inherently full-time: it demands hands-on sales execution, pipeline forecasting, team coaching, and cross-functional collaboration across a large multinational. No fractional or interim signals present.

01

Full-time Sales Manager – Installed Base — the balanced verdict

Why this role stands out

  • Clear player-manager structure combining leadership with direct selling, appealing to hands-on revenue leaders.
  • Established multinational employer (10,001+ staff) with defined culture and career development investment.
  • Focus on high-value installed-base, lifecycle, and subscription revenue—strategic growth lever beyond transactional sales.
  • Remote-flexible work arrangement within Ireland footprint.

Worth checking before you apply

  • Full-time commitment with team coaching, compliance, and multi-stakeholder alignment—not compatible with part-time or portfolio work.
  • No salary range stated; typical UK/Ireland sales manager roles in industrial automation span £50–70k + bonus, but Emerson's actual offer unknown.
  • Ireland-based role requires willingness to travel within country; remote flexibility is within that constraint, not a full remote-first arrangement.
