What will you do?

As an Accountmanager New Business, you will contribute to the further growth of VDL Weweler. You will maintain contact with existing customers and actively search for new commercial opportunities within the international trailer, truck, and bus industry. You don't need to know everything already. You will learn about our products and market from us. However, it is important that you are technically curious and enjoy understanding how our products work and what challenges customers face. Your responsibilities will include:

• Building and maintaining customer relationships
• Identifying commercial opportunities with existing and new customers
• Supporting the development of new markets
• Translating customer inquiries into suitable technical solutions
• Visiting customers, trade fairs, and events both domestically and abroad
• Collaborating with colleagues from engineering, production, and project management

No two days are the same. One day you are on your way to a customer, the next day you are consulting internally about a new application or working on a commercial proposal.

You are naturally curious and enjoy delving into technical issues. You can easily switch between different types of people and are not afraid to take initiative. Customers trust you because you understand their challenges and think along in solutions. Additionally, you recognize yourself in the following:

Commercial experience is a plus, but not a requirement. Technical knowledge and the motivation to learn are much more important to us.

Do you want to develop yourself in an international commercial role within a technical environment? Then we would love to meet you. Apply directly or contact us for an introduction.
