What we do at Weir

We are a global leader in mining technology for a sustainable future. We help our customers extract the resources the world needs more efficiently and more sustainably. Our planet's future depends on the transition to renewable energy, and that transition can only happen with the metals and minerals our customers deliver. So, we work side by side with mines across the globe to move less rock, use less energy, use water wisely, and create less waste. Together, we drive the shift to smart, efficient, and more sustainable mining.

You'll play a key role in solving real-world challenges. You'll apply your skills to deliver results that matter whether that's through engineering, planning, or customer support. You'll work with purpose, learn every day, and help shape a more sustainable future.

You'll lead and empower experienced sales professionals, build trusted relationships with senior customers, pursue significant growth opportunities and work collaboratively across a global organisation to deliver solutions that create genuine customer value. We're looking for a commercially minded, strategic and team-oriented leader who can challenge the status quo, inspire a growth mindset, and translate opportunity into results.
