Sales Executive

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

What do we offer? 

• Solid base salary plus an attractive bonus program

• 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
