ESCO needed a new National Sales Manager. Fast. Within weeks, Sales HQ delivered three standout candidates — each so strong they were all offered roles. One was hired on the spot. Another inspired the creation of an entirely new position. This wasn’t just a hire — it was a sales transformation.
About ESCO
ESCO is a market leader in industrial services and safety solutions, partnering with major infrastructure and government clients across Australia. Known for quality, technical depth and a deeply customer-centric model, ESCO required a sales leader who could represent the brand with authority — and drive new commercial growth.
When their existing National Sales Manager departed, the pressure was on to find a high-impact replacement without compromising on fit, capability or speed.
The challenge
ESCO’s leadership team knew how critical this hire was. After previous false starts with generalist recruiters, they needed a true specialist to handle a niche, high-stakes sales appointment.
They were looking for:
A seasoned National Sales Manager with experience leading technical sales teams
Someone who could build trust with large-scale industrial clients
A recruitment partner who could cut through the noise and deliver with confidence
