What employers expect from a Export Sales Manager

Export sales managers develop foreign markets, mostly through distributors and agents, and spend a large share of their time travelling. Languages decide which territory is possible.

Export sales managers open and develop markets outside the home country. They find and manage importers and agents, negotiate contracts across legal systems and currencies, handle documentation and payment terms and spend a good part of the year travelling. Languages count as much as technical knowledge here, and employers prize candidates who have built a distributor network from a blank sheet.

Selling in Building Technology

Construction and building technology covers HVAC, building automation, construction machinery, facades, building materials and elevators. Customers are installers, general contractors, planners and investors – a market driven by energy efficiency and regulation.

In construction and building technology the buying decision is spread across planners, general contractors, installers and investors. Successful sales people work the whole chain: specification with the planner, price with the installer, relationship with the wholesaler. Energy efficiency rules and the renovation wave drive demand for HVAC, building automation and insulation – and for sales staff who can explain them.
