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.

Technical sales engineers translate a customer's technical problem into a solution their company can deliver profitably – clarifying requirements, designing the offer, calculating and closing.

Sales engineers work where engineering meets the customer. Typical tasks are application consulting, feasibility checks, demos and trials, technical offers and support during tenders – often together with an area or key account manager who owns the commercial relationship. Employers hire engineers and technicians who enjoy customer contact; many sales careers in industry start exactly here.

Automotive and mobility sales means supplying OEMs and tier-1s with components, battery systems, production equipment and test technology – nomination cycles run for years, volumes are huge and technical project management is part of the job.

Automotive sales runs on nominations: a project is won years before start of production and then delivers volume for the life of the vehicle platform. Sales and key account managers lead RFQs, coordinate engineering changes and negotiate annual price reductions with professional purchasing organisations. Experience with OEM or tier-1 processes, quality requirements and the shift to electric drivetrains is what employers pay a premium for.

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 Technical Sales Engineer earns across Europe.
