What you see here is what is open right now.

UK & Ireland covers United Kingdom and Ireland – one search instead of 2 separate ones, which is how most sales territories are cut anyway.

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.

Logistics and materials handling means intralogistics systems, forklifts, conveyors, cranes, warehouse automation and mobile robots – project business with integrators as well as fleet and service sales.

Intralogistics and materials handling sells efficiency: fewer touches, faster throughput, safer warehouses. Offers are built around the customer’s material flow, so sales people work with layout planning, simulation and return-on-investment calculations. Employers range from forklift and crane manufacturers with large fleets and service business to system integrators running multi-million automation projects.
