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.

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.

Buyers of machines and plants decide in committees: production, engineering, purchasing and management all have a say, and a project can take a year from first contact to order. Sales people in this industry manage tenders and specifications, reference visits and factory acceptance tests. Typical employers are mid-sized, family-owned manufacturers with a strong export share – which is why language skills and willingness to travel appear in most ads.

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.
