SlimDril is a leading provider of advanced drilling solutions within the HDD (Horizontal Directional Drilling) sector. As a pioneer in trenchless technology, we support complex onshore and offshore projects in the energy and infrastructure sectors. As a sister company of Brownline, we combine deep technical expertise with a flexible, customer-oriented approach to successfully realize even the most challenging drilling scenarios.

With a rapidly growing presence in Europe, our Dutch office plays a key role in further expanding our position in this specialist market.

For this role, we are looking for a commercially driven Business Development Manager with technical knowledge of HDD, who will further drive our growth in the Netherlands and other European markets. This is no standard sales position - you must understand the technical aspects, be able to pivot quickly, and have the confidence to make decisions at the right time that truly make an impact.

You will operate at the intersection of technology and commerce and will be the primary point of contact for customers - both for planned projects and when rapid action is required. This brings responsibility: you are flexible, think in solutions, and are willing to step up when necessary. The role requires a high degree of commitment, including international travel and sometimes working outside regular office hours.

Fortunately, you are not alone - you will work closely with the experienced team from SlimDril UK, who will support you where needed.
