Role overview

We’re on the lookout for a bold, driven and people-loving Sales Executive ready to make real connections and drive growth in a dynamic environment. If you thrive outside the office, love solving problems, and bring positive energy wherever you go - let’s talk. This role is all about meeting people, building relationships, and being the face of a growing brand with strong roots.

 

Your responsibilities will include:

  • You'll identify and engage potential clients, roofing constructors and distributors, and introduce them to what we offer

  • Combine strategic thinking with action: plan and implement smart sales initiatives to strengthen our market presence

  • Present our high-quality products confidently, offering tailored solutions that meet each client’s real needs

  • Build and maintain meaningful relationships with both new and existing customers — because great sales are built on trust

  • Be a go-to expert: provide helpful product advice, resolve issues efficiently, and ensure a smooth customer experience

  • Stay informed on industry trends, monitor competitors, and spot new opportunities for growth in the region

  • Negotiate effectively, manage follow-ups professionally, and close deals that benefit both the client and the business

  • Collaborate closely with marketing, logistics, and customer service teams — and represent the company at trade shows and industry events to build visibility and expand your network

 


Your qualifications, experience and skills 

  • Ideally 3 years of field sales experience with face-to-face customer interactions

  • Confident connecting with Purchase Managers, Architects, and Contractors

  • Energetic, optimistic, and resilient - rejection doesn’t shake you

  • Strong communicator with great listening skills and empathy

  • Self-motivated and organized - you know how to prioritize your sales route

  • Comfortable working on your own but always ready to collaborate

  • A natural problem-solver who thrives on adapting to different customer needs

  • Passionate about quality products and professional sales with long-term impact

  • Professional proficiency in German & English 
  • Hold a driving licence

  • Company car

  • Mobile phone

  • Laptop

  • Health  insurance

  • Work from home when you’re not in the field – with regular visits to our offices in Mannheim, Heinsberg, or Brussels

  • You’ll also get the chance to travel across Europe for events and business meetings
