Sales Manager Metal Powder Technology - Germany (m/f/d)

As an important partner in the automotive sector, my customer works closely with Tier‐3 and Tier‐4 suppliers and supports them with sustainable, powerful materials. The position of sales management arises as a result of strategic growth in the DACH region as well as in Poland and offers a key role in further market expansion. The competent person takes over both the development of new customer relationships and the support of an existing customer portfolio - in each case in equal parts. It operates independently, close to the market and with a high degree of discretion. The sales success is based on sound technical consulting skills, which is why a background in mechanical engineering is absolutely necessary. At the same time, experience in the field of metal or powder metallurgy is desirable, but not obligatory. The role requires a pronounced readiness to travel around 60% to ensure customer proximity, market presence and continuous relationship care. English skills are indispensable to ensure professional exchange with international specialist departments and production units. My customer offers a professional, globally connected environment in which engagement becomes visible and personal growth is promoted. The company combines long-term technology history with state-of-the-art production standards and a pronounced innovation orientation. In addition, there is an opportunity to actively participate in the international expansion of strategic business relations. The corporate culture is characterised by openness, pragmatism and a high degree of confidence in independent work. Anyone who appreciates responsibility, freedom and design space will find the ideal combination here. In this key position, market strategies, technical solutions and sustainable growth impulses are developed, which decisively contribute to the future development of the company.

My customer is an internationally leading manufacturer of advanced metal-based materials that has been synonymous with technical precision, innovative strength and highest manufacturing quality for many decades. The company supplies global industries with highly developed powder materials and is one of the technological pioneers in the metallurgical environment.
