Accountmanager Engineering

In this entrepreneurial role as Account Manager Engineering, you are both the face and the foundation of our Dutch expansion. Operating from the Amsterdam region, you are given full autonomy to claim a substantial market share for this Italian engineering leader. You are not merely a salesperson; you act as a strategic advisor who discusses the future of complex engineering projects at the board level. You identify opportunities, open doors at key accounts, and flawlessly translate intricate technical challenges into high-end solutions. If you love engineering but thrive on commercial dynamics, this is your moment to lead.

You are a heavyweight who speaks the language of both the shop floor and the boardroom. To make this challenging position a success, you bring:

• A completed technical degree at Bachelor or Master level (e.g., Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Electrical Engineering).
• Proven experience in the technical market; preferably, you started your career as an engineer before transitioning into commerce.
• Excellent command of Dutch and English.
• Fluency in Italian is considered a major advantage and will significantly enhance your synergy with the Italian headquarters.
• A relevant and active network within the Dutch engineering sector.

Your success is defined by your drive and your ability to make a lasting impact. We are looking for a professional who demonstrates:

• Entrepreneurship: You don't see obstacles, only market opportunities, and you act on them proactively.
• Persuasiveness: With flair and deep technical substance, you know how to win and retain high-level clients.
• Result-orientation: You work purposefully to grow the business while never losing sight of long-term strategic goals.
• Analytical Skills: You quickly deconstruct business processes and pinpoint exactly where the technical value lies.

You will join the employer directly on a permanent contract. Besides the chance to build an international organization from the ground up in the Netherlands, you can count on:

• A competitive salary up to €5,500 gross per month, matching your seniority and expertise.
• A company car, ensuring your mobility to visit clients and projects across the region.
• Comprehensive secondary benefits and the high-end facilities required to perform at your peak.

Our client is a leading Italian engineering firm with a rich history and an impressive portfolio of innovative projects. They are renowned for their technical finesse and passion for craftsmanship. By expanding into the Netherlands, they aim to further scale their expertise internationally. You have the unique opportunity to be the 'founding father' of the Dutch branch, backed by the power and resources of a prestigious European player.
