What you see here is what is open right now.

Business development managers open what does not exist yet: new applications, new industries, new regions. It is hunting in its purest form.

Business development managers find revenue that does not exist yet: new industries for an existing product, new regions, new applications or partnerships. The role is analytical and entrepreneurial at once – market studies and target lists on one day, first meetings at management level on the next. Employers want hunters with a strategic head who can hand a developed market over to the regular sales team.

Industrial supplies and safety technology covers cutting tools, fasteners, protective equipment, machine safety, welding, lubricants and adhesives – high-frequency sales built on consultative selling on the shop floor.

Industrial supplies and safety technology lives from proximity to the customer: regular visits on the shop floor, tests at the machine, quick availability. Sales roles are territory-based with a broad portfolio and many active accounts, often in cooperation with technical distributors. Employers look for hands-on sellers who can prove savings per part or per shift – and who like being on the road.
