Sales Managers in Italy

Talent Search for Sales Managers in Italy

Recruit Mogul supports organisations across Lombardy, Lazio, Campania, Veneto and other regions in Italy. We work with business owners, commercial leaders, and executive teams to identify Sales Managers who can lead teams, grow revenue, and strengthen sales execution across competitive markets.

Italy’s economy is characterised by industrial manufacturing, automotive and machinery production, luxury goods, food and agriculture, tourism, and export-focused regional enterprises. Family ownership structures and generational transition planning frequently influence senior leadership succession.

Our focus is on sales leadership roles where structure, accountability, and performance delivery are essential.

Sales Manager Search Focused on Execution

Sales Managers directly influence pipeline quality, conversion rates, and team performance. Our searches are run on a focused, confidential basis, engaging experienced sales leaders rather than relying solely on active applicants or CV databases.

Our Sales Manager search approach prioritises:

  • Leadership of sales teams and frontline performance
  • Experience building pipelines and driving consistent revenue growth
  • Oversight of sales processes, forecasting, and KPIs
  • Strong coaching, motivation, and performance management skills
  • Ability to align sales activity with broader commercial objectives

Each search is aligned to the organisation’s market, sales model, and growth targets.
