Infopro Digital, the B2B group specialising in information and technology, is looking for a UK Senior Sales Manager to join Haynes Group Limited within its Automotive division. Haynes is an established automotive data solutions provider and is part of Infopro Digital, a global group with 4,000 employees across 26 countries. This is not a project-sales role. Our commercial model is built around scalable SaaS and subscription solutions that create measurable, ongoing value for customers in the automotive aftermarket. We are looking for a senior sales professional who understands recurring revenue, can win and grow strategic accounts, and combines disciplined funnel management with a genuinely customer-centric approach. WHY THIS MARKET MATTERS The UK vehicle parc is larger and older than ever. At the end of 2025, 36.68 million cars were in use; 45.7% were more than ten years old and the average car age had risen to 9.7 years. Across the EU, passenger cars average more than 12 years old. These ageing fleets create sustained demand for maintenance, diagnostics, repair information and efficient workshop solutions - strong structural tailwinds for scalable automotive data products.
