We are looking for a Technical Sales Engineer to work with customers across construction, industry and infrastructure, helping them find the right access solution for their specific site, application and safety requirements.

You will visit customer sites, assess access challenges, recommend configurations from our standard range or custom options, and prepare clear technical proposals. You will work closely with engineering and production to ensure what you promise can be delivered. The ideal candidate combines technical credibility with commercial instinct and enjoys building long-term relationships based on trust and practical advice.

 

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare accurate quotations, technical proposals and tender responses in collaboration with internal teams.

• Deliver product presentations and demonstrations to customers, distributors and specifiers.

• Build and maintain relationships with key decision-makers in construction, facilities management, industrial operations and procurement.

• Provide market feedback to engineering and product management on customer needs, competitor activity and emerging requirements.

• Support distributors with training, promotional activities and joint customer visits.

• Maintain accurate records of sales activity, opportunities and customer interactions in the CRM system.

• Represent Vexta at trade fairs and industry events as required.

• Ensure all activities comply with internal policies and applicable regulations.

 

Requirements

• Bachelor‘s degree in Engineering, Business, Safety Management or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

• At least three years of technical sales experience, ideally in access equipment, scaffolding, ladders, industrial safety or construction products.

• Practical understanding of access technology, fall protection principles and relevant standards, or a strong aptitude for learning technical content quickly.

• Proven ability to build relationships and close sales in a technical environment.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills in English; German or other European languages are strongly preferred.

• Confidence in engaging with site managers, engineers, safety officers and procurement teams.

• Ability to work independently, manage travel and prioritise effectively.

• Proficiency with CRM systems and standard office software.

• A valid driving licence and willingness to travel frequently within the assigned territory.

 

What We Offer

• A role with direct impact on business growth and customer safety.

• The opportunity to work with technically demanding products that solve real problems.

• A supportive internal team covering engineering, production and customer service.

• Competitive salary with performance-related incentives.
