What employers expect from a Managing Director Sales

Managing directors with a sales focus run the sales subsidiary or business unit of an industrial group – with full P&L responsibility and a strong emphasis on market development.

Managing directors with a sales focus are hired to grow a subsidiary or a mid-sized industrial company commercially. Beyond sales leadership the role covers budget, legal responsibility, personnel and the relationship with shareholders or the group. Candidates usually come from a sales director or country manager position and bring a record of profitable growth, not just revenue.

Selling in Industrial Software

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.

Salary and compensation

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: what a Managing Director Sales earns across Europe.

A company car is mentioned in 0% of the ads, variable pay in 100%.
