Technical Sales Board lists technical and industrial sales jobs only – no retail, no call centre, no software subscriptions. Every ad is classified by role, industry, country and city, by sales style from hunter to key account, by territory, travel share and required languages, and ads that have expired disappear the same day. What you see here is what is open right now.

Industrial software and digitalisation covers MES, PLM, IIoT platforms, machine vision and OT security – solution selling to production and IT leaders, often with recurring revenue models and proof-of-concept phases.

Industrial software is sold as a solution, not as a licence: MES, PLM, IIoT platforms or machine vision change how a plant works, so projects start with a proof of concept and involve production, IT and management. Sales roles suit people who understand manufacturing processes and can build a business case; recurring revenue models mean account development matters as much as the first deal.

The roles advertised most often here are Key Account Manager (8), Sales Manager (6), Sales Director (3), and Business Development Manager (3).

Key account managers look after a small number of strategic customers – frame contracts, annual price negotiations and an international account team – and grow the share of wallet.

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: technical sales salary benchmarks by role, industry and country.
