About the position
Your responsibilities and tasks
You will be responsible for driving sales activities in collaboration with global and local GEA offices and partners. This implies preparing detailed quotations for customers and local offices spanning the entire portfolio of GEA Chemical, Pharma and Freeze Drying technologies.
Finding the right drying solution for a customer involves process and plant specification, product test work, cost and sales price setting, preparation of quotations, as well as final contract negotiations with customers.
You will be the link between our customers, our technical department, and project department, when you:
- Provide technical day-to-day support and investigate the customers' need for replacement, upgrade, modernisation, revamping, or maybe an audit
- Work closely with customers, local GEA offices to drive GEA’s relationship and customer focus
- Are involved in several activities to strengthen our long-term business growth and market position, including, e.g., exploring new business opportunities and implementation of strategic initiatives
This position is mainly back-office support, but you must be prepared to limited travelling activities on sales related visits to customers.
Your profile and qualifications
With your supportive and proactive profile, you are not one to sit back and wait for tasks to come your way. Furthermore, you understand and respect cultural differences and can navigate and differentiate the communication with a European and an Asian client respectively. And if you like the “hunt” for closing orders – and collaborating globally with customers and internal GEA stakeholders – you might be just the one we are looking for.
We imagine that you have:
- A deep technical knowledge of process equipment as well as a profound commercial mindset – perhaps combined a degree in engineering
- Knowledge about industrial production processes and equipment utilised in the process industry and can translate this into attractive plant design and quotations
- Sales experience and knowledge of the food and beverage industry and its production processes, and can show a successful track record within technical project sales
- Cross-cultural understanding and language skills to plan and carry out complex sales processes internationally and handle negotiations
- English proficiency – Danish and/or other languages are not a requirement, though an advantage
