Technical Sales Board lists technical and industrial sales jobs only – no retail, no call centre, no software subscriptions.

What you see here is what is open right now.

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.

Few of these ads state a salary. Industrial employers often discuss pay in the first interview – our salary benchmarks show what to expect: More on median, range and source: Export Sales Manager salary in Germany.
