Job Description

Are you an experienced technical sales professional looking to drive sales and develop the MOTOREX market in the districts of Kalmar, Jönköping, and Östergötland?

As an Area Sales Manager, you work in the field, based from your home office in the region, with Alingsås serving as the hub for joint meetings and training. Your daily routine involves planning, driving, and developing the sales of MOTOREX's high-quality lubricants, chemicals, and cleaning products within your district.

The role requires great endurance and strong self-leadership as you drive your own region. You will process both new prospects and nurture existing customers. The industry requires you to build solid personal trust before a business deal can be initiated, meaning you handle the sales cycle with patience and view setbacks as a natural part of the path to success. You are part of an experienced Swedish team while maintaining close contact with the international headquarters in Switzerland.

You will join a technical company where product complexity is high. The focus on the Swedish market lies in construction, forestry, agriculture, and the transport sector. Through frequent customer visits and strong relationship building, you work independently and entrepreneurially in your region.

This is a permanent full-time position. Benefits include a company laptop, mobile phone, and company car.

The recruitment is conducted in collaboration with Randstad. You apply by registering your CV on randstad.se. For more information about the position, please contact recruitment consultant Emily Hann. We conduct continuous selection, so the position may be filled before the application deadline.

Responsibilities

• You have a mechanical education or equivalent practical experience. A mechanical understanding and knowledge of heavy vehicles, gearboxes, and complex machinery are required to act as a competent partner to mechanics and experts.
• Experience in technical proactive sales and field-based relationship building. Experience from the oil, lubricant, or spare parts industry is highly meritorious.
• Good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written, as English is required for contact with the headquarters in Switzerland.
• You must reside in the relevant district (Östergötland, Jönköping, or Kalmar County) and have an established local network.
• You are results-oriented, self-motivated, enduring, and thrive in a role with significant personal responsibility.
• Basic knowledge of MS Office.

Qualifications

In the role of Technical Sales Manager, you share responsibility for promoting the group's operations and profitability. Your tasks include, but are not limited to:

• Actively seeking out, contacting, and visiting workshops, machine owners, and companies within transport, construction, agriculture, and forestry.
• Driving your region forward to achieve set goals.
• Establishing, nurturing, and developing long-term business relationships and partnerships.
• Participating in fairs, exhibitions, and regional customer activities to increase MOTOREX visibility.
• Independently documenting, planning, and following up on your sales activities in the company's CRM system.
