Wiring harnesses, looms & cable assemblies | Bri-Stor Systems · The HEX Group

Build the customer base. Shape the capability. Drive the growth.

Bri-Stor Systems, part of The HEX Group, specialises in commercial vehicle conversions and mobile workspace solutions, helping businesses across the UK equip their vehicles for the work they do. With innovation, quality and customer focus at its heart, the business creates practical working environments that help customers operate more efficiently and safely.

Building on this expertise, we have made significant investment in automated harness manufacturing equipment. Now we are looking for an experienced commercial leader to grow our wiring harness, loom and cable assembly business — winning external customers and helping shape the capability behind every customer promise.

Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you will own the commercial strategy, build a qualified pipeline and work closely with engineering, operations, quality and purchasing to turn ambition into deliverable growth.

The Opportunity

This is more than an established sales role. It is the chance to help build an external customer base around invested manufacturing capability, with a direct voice in how the business develops.

  • Set the direction: agree target sectors, customers and growth targets with the Managing Director, then deliver the commercial and sales strategy.
  • Open doors and win work: use your industry network to generate qualified requests for quotation, lead customer visits and capability presentations, and negotiate new business.
  • Own the pipeline: manage opportunities from first contact through quotation and award to repeat orders and long-term account growth.
  • Focus the market: pursue specialist and commercial vehicles, off-highway and agriculture, industrial equipment, and utilities and energy, while developing entry plans for defence and rail.
  • Shape what comes next: bring market insight into the business and help develop quoting, costing, engineering, design and accreditation readiness — so we deliver what we sell, profitably and to standard.

What you will bring

  • Proven sales or business development experience in wiring harnesses, looms or cable assemblies, with an established industry network.
  • A track record of winning new customers and growing accounts, backed by a strong understanding of harness applications, specifications, RFQs and quotation costing.
  • Commercial confidence in pricing, margin and contract terms, and the ability to present and negotiate with engineers, senior buyers and directors.
  • An entrepreneurial, hands-on approach: comfortable creating momentum without an established sales infrastructure and collaborating across teams to get things done.
  • A commitment to trusted customer relationships, following through on promises and balancing growth with risk.

Why Join Bri-Stor Systems?

Help shape a growing harness business — not just its sales pipeline. With investment in automated manufacturing equipment already made, you will have the opportunity to influence commercial strategy, build lasting customer relationships and work with colleagues to develop the capability behind our growth. It is a chance to bring your industry knowledge and ideas to a business where you can help define what comes next.

Alongside this opportunity to make your mark, we offer a competitive salary, company bonus scheme and company car. Our wider benefits support your wellbeing and life beyond work, while career development opportunities and a collaborative culture complement the chance to help build this part of the business:

  • Company bonus scheme
  • Company car
  • Health cash plan
  • Early Friday finish
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Long service awards
  • A supportive and collaborative culture
