Senior Sales Engineer

What will you be doing?

At Alewijnse, we are looking to strengthen our Sales Engineering team. As a ‘working foreman,’ you will provide functional leadership to the team of Sales Engineers. In addition, you will also contribute to and ensure the smooth and professional handling of serial and customer-specific requests for new construction, service and conversion projects. From superyachts to offshore installations, no two requests are the same.

Do you enjoy technology, variety and collaboration? Then this is your opportunity.

As a Senior Sales Engineer, you will work closely with our Account Managers and act as the link between customer demand and technical solutions. You will prepare cost calculations and quotations for electrical and automation systems in the maritime sector, specifically for the Naval segment. You will gather the relevant technical information, contribute ideas for suitable solutions and translate these into a cost calculation so that a clear proposal can be presented to the customer.

In doing so, you will work together with colleagues from various disciplines and ensure that requests are handled smoothly.

In addition, you will provide functional leadership to the international Sales Engineering team. The team is growing and currently consists of seven Sales Engineers. You will report to the Manager Sales. You will be responsible for day-to-day management, dividing the work within the team and coaching the other Sales Engineers. In addition, you will monitor and improve the quality of processes, quotations and data.

At Alewijnse, people come first. We are proud of our maritime roots, but perhaps even more so of the people who work here. There is an open, committed atmosphere where there is room for personal development.

What you can expect:

• A competitive salary between €5,500 and €7,000 per month for full-time employment
• A laptop and telephone so you can do your job properly
• 31 days of holiday so you can enjoy your time outside of work
• Pension through PMT

Training opportunities, coaching and plenty of opportunities for advancement

Terms of employment in accordance with the Metal & Technology collective labour agreement

And perhaps most importantly: you will be joining an organisation where people are there for each other. Where you will work with colleagues from all over the world, but where the family feeling is still palpable. Whether you participate in a sports activity, a team outing, or just catch up during lunch, at Alewijnse you belong.

And there's more. Through our We Connect platform, you can stay connected with colleagues worldwide and benefit from extras such as your own webshop. Interested? Apply now and discover your future at Alewijnse.

You are results-oriented and can quickly understand complex customer issues and translate them into technical-commercial solutions. You have sharp technical insight and like to think one step ahead. In addition, you can easily maintain an overview and have a team-oriented approach.
