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.

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

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.

Technical sales representatives cover a territory with a high visit frequency: distributors, workshops, plants and construction sites. The portfolio is usually broad, the sales cycle short and the relationship personal. Employers look for hands-on people with a trade or technical background, a valid driving licence and the discipline to plan twenty to thirty visits a week – a company car and variable pay are standard.

By industry, most of these jobs come from Building Technology (11), Machinery (7), Chemicals & Materials (5), Industrial Technology (4), Logistics (4), and Industrial Supplies (3).

Construction and building technology covers HVAC, building automation, construction machinery, facades, building materials and elevators. Customers are installers, general contractors, planners and investors – a market driven by energy efficiency and regulation.

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 Representative earns across Europe.

A company car is mentioned in 56% of the ads, variable pay in 27%.
