SAR Lubricants is a trusted UK-based manufacturer specialising in high-performance oils and lubricants for industrial applications. With a strong focus on quality, innovation, and customer support, SAR serves a wide range of sectors – including textiles – by delivering tailored lubrication solutions designed to enhance machinery performance and operational efficiency.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with practical experience in textile manufacturing or the application of textile lubricants to step into a client-focused, strategic role.

About the role
The successful candidate will bring hands-on knowledge from the shop floor – whether that’s supporting spinning and weaving operations or supplying lubricants and finishing oils – to help drive growth and innovation within the business. You’ll work closely with clients to understand their needs and contribute to the development of new and existing products alongside the in-house lab team.

What’s on offer

• £35,000–£45,000 OTE

• Company car or mileage allowance

• Full product training provided

• Hybrid working available after 6 months

• Opportunity to play a key role in product development

What we’re looking for

• Experience in textile production or the supply of textile lubricants/finishing oils

• Strong communication skills and a customer-first mindset

• A proactive approach to business development

If you’re looking to move off the factory floor and into a role where your industry insight really makes an impact, we’d love to hear from you.
