This business is driven by YOY growth and in return, they offer a lucrative package as well as a structured career path to excel within the business.

If you are an experienced technical sales professional, dynamic and driven by sales growth, then I might just have an opportunity that will give you the platform to not only demonstrate your sales credentials and the opportunity to climb up the career ladder.

The Sales Manager’s role will suit a technical sales professional selling engineering machinery, special purpose machinery or high-value capital equipment (CapEx) to manufacturing customers.

In return, you will be provided with the support, training and development from an organisation that invests very heavily in the development of its staff. The training alone is unrivalled by their competitors and I know this for a fact, having recruited several staff within the Commercial Sales Team.

The role of the Sales Manager will be as follows:

• Selling capital equipment to customers across the Benelux region

• You will also be responsible for the calculation of quotations, negotiation, closing sales to after-sales support
• New business development, identifying target customers throughout the region and building long-term business relationships with food and beverage customers (a large proportion of the customer data is already there)
• Provide your manager and head office with timely reports and analysis of order intake, costs, sales, sales targets, etc
• Providing pre-sales technical assistance and product education

Experience & Background:

• A proven track record of selling high-value Capital Equipment (CapEx), special-purpose machinery or large engineering equipment in the manufacturing sector
• Experienced in new business sales as well as developing existing accounts
• A success-driven and results-orientated Sales Manager

The benefits:

• Extensive training programme to ensure you become a product specialist
• Fantastic remuneration package with unlimited earning potential – 1.9% commission on all invoiced equipment sales

The company:

This company generates more than €80 million across the globe and they are instantly recognised as a leading manufacturer of Food & Beverage capital machinery.
