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.

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 Machinery (6), Building Technology (6), Industrial Technology (4), Logistics (3), Chemicals & Materials (3), and Medical Technology (3).

Machinery and plant engineering is the home of capital equipment sales: machine tools, packaging and process lines, special-purpose machines. Sales cycles are long, deals are large and technical credibility decides.
