Vacant job

Bixia is an electricity trading company with about 70 employees and is owned by Tekniska verken in Linköping – the energy company that builds the world’s most resource-efficient region. We want to contribute to real change towards a greener, healthier, and more sustainable future. Therefore, we are driving the development of locally produced electricity from renewable energy sources by promoting local initiatives and investing in local producers. The electricity industry, like many other industries, is facing major changes. The digital development affects our entire society, and our industry is no exception. Making sustainable choices of products and services is becoming increasingly obvious, and that is where Bixia wants to be a clear player.

In the role of inside salesperson, you will be responsible for establishing and developing customer relationships by contacting new and existing business customers via phone and digital channels. You will offer, negotiate, and sign electricity agreements based on customer needs and handle incoming inquiries in a professional and business-like manner.
 

You will work independently and goal-oriented with sales, which includes prospecting new customers and extending/updating contracts with existing customers. The work also involves ensuring correct documentation in the CRM system and following the company's guidelines regarding quality and environment. The goal is to contribute to increased sales, high customer satisfaction, and long-term customer relationships.
 

In this role, you will belong to a team that enjoys working together, has a strong team spirit, and has a lot of fun at work. You will be part of an engaged team with driven colleagues who work together to achieve set goals.

Bixia's employees have different roles, backgrounds, and interests. What unites us is the pride in who we are and what we contribute. Together with local producers of solar, wind, and hydropower and our customers who choose locally produced electricity, we contribute to renewable electricity. In this way, we reduce our total emissions, and our vision is to create a completely renewable electricity market.

You thrive in a sales role, are used to working towards set goals and results, and are comfortable making cold calls. As a person, you are organized, structured, driven, proactive, and skilled at building relationships and customer dialogues. We would like you to have the following:
 

• You have experience with cold calling, prospecting, and proactive sales.
• You are used to handling customer dialogues and multiple processes simultaneously.
• You have at least 2 years of experience in active sales work.
• You have good computer skills and previous experience with business systems.
• You can communicate well in both spoken and written Swedish and English.
