Apex Manufacturing is a UK precision plastics manufacturer based in Milton Keynes and part of Clowsley Industries. We take products from CAD and prototype through tooling and into full-scale production, with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified quality systems. We work with everyone from early-stage start-ups to established manufacturers, and we’re led by an engineering team with backgrounds in aerospace, automotive, medical and surgical robotics manufacturing. One UK mobility start-up went from CAD to manufactured parts in a single quarter with us. We’re now growing our commercial pipeline and want experienced, well-connected agents to grow with us.

Products

You’ll be selling contract manufacturing services, which means every win can lead to repeat production orders for years. Our core services are plastic injection moulding (precision, repeatable parts at volume), injection mould tool design and manufacture, vacuum forming (larger parts and lower volumes without complex tooling), additive manufacturing and 3D printing for prototypes and short runs, and secondary operations and assembly (marking, welding, assembly and packing so parts leave ready for market). We also offer reshoring management, helping companies move tooling and production back from overseas to the UK to cut lead times, improve quality and reduce supply chain risk, along with design for manufacture (DFM) reviews and supplier transition support.

Benefits

Recurring commission
Most commission-only roles pay you once and leave you hunting for the next sale. Manufacturing works differently. When a customer’s mould tool is built and their parts are running in production with us, they don’t switch suppliers lightly. Tools are expensive to move, parts are validated, and supply chains value stability. That means the customers you introduce typically keep reordering for the life of their product, often for several years. Every repeat order earns you commission, so each account you win becomes a growing stream of income rather than a one-off payment. Build a handful of solid accounts and you’ll have a dependable monthly income that keeps paying while you focus on new opportunities.
Freedom & flexibility
This is a fully remote, self-employed role. You choose your hours, your territory within the UK, and how you approach your market, whether that’s working your existing contacts, attending trade shows, or targeting a sector you know well. There are no sales quotas and no restrictions on representing other non-competing products, so Apex can sit comfortably alongside your existing portfolio and give you another reason to call the buyers you already speak to. You bring the relationships and the introductions; our engineering team handles the technical detail, quoting and production, so you can spend your time selling rather than managing jobs.

Target market

We sell B2B across the UK. Ideal clients include product start-ups and scale-ups that need to manufacture a new product, OEMs and established manufacturers needing extra capacity or a second source, and companies currently moulding in China or elsewhere in Asia who are frustrated by lead times, quality issues, freight costs, or supply chain risk. Product design consultancies and engineering firms are also valuable partners, as they regularly need a trusted manufacturer to pass work to. Key sectors are renewable energy, FMCG, toys and sporting goods, healthcare and medical devices, building and construction, consumer electronics, and automotive and mobility. Typical decision-makers include founders, operations and supply chain managers, procurement and purchasing leads, engineering managers, and product development heads.

Ideal Profile

We’re looking for self-motivated sales agents, consultants and business development professionals with an existing network in UK manufacturing, engineering, procurement or product design. Experience selling plastics, tooling, contract manufacturing, engineering components or industrial services is ideal, but strong B2B relationship sellers in any of our target sectors are welcome. You should be comfortable finding your own leads, getting to the right decision-maker, gathering the information we need to quote (drawings or CAD, quantities, materials) and seeing deals through to order.

Why it’s attractive: manufacturing is a sticky business. Once a customer’s tool is built and running with us, they typically reorder for the life of the product, so a single introduction can pay you commission for years. Order values are substantial, with tooling alone often running into the thousands before production revenue begins. Reshoring is a strong, timely conversation to open with, as many UK businesses are actively looking for alternatives to offshore suppliers. You’ll get full technical backup from an experienced engineering team who will handle DFM, quoting and production, so you don’t need to be a moulding expert. You also get flexibility to sell alongside your existing portfolio, especially if you already sell complementary products to the same buyers.
