Do you have a technical education and want to develop in a role where you get real insight into how a global industrial company operates? Academic Work is now looking for a Junior Sales & Technical Support consultant for an international client in Lidköping – the perfect start for you who want to combine technology, support, and business!

About the role

As a consultant for our client in Lidköping, you will become an important addition to the Sales & Technical Support function.

• Technical Sales Support: You support the sales team in the office by preparing technical documentation and quotations in the business system Monitor.
• Handling Drawings: You make simple adjustments to existing SolidWorks files (e.g., changing dimensions or adding text) to adapt drawings to the customer's specific orders.
• Order Management: You register everything from standard orders to more complex projects with technical changes.
• Logistics & Coordination: You assist with questions regarding how products should be packed and book transport for international deliveries.

Who we are looking for

• Have a technical education from high school, university college, or university.
• Have knowledge of CAD (preferably SolidWorks) and the ability to read and understand technical drawings.
• Have a strong interest in mechanics.
• Have a basic understanding of electricity/electronics.
