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.

DACH covers Germany, Austria, and Switzerland – one search instead of 3 separate ones, which is how most sales territories are cut anyway.

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.

The roles advertised most often here are Technical Sales Representative (3), Key Account Manager (3), and Technical Inside Sales (3).

Technical sales representatives work in the field: they visit customers, present products, follow up on offers and keep the territory growing. It is the classic entry into technical sales.

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.
