The role As Area Sales Manager Inspection Services, you are the primary commercial and technical contact for your clients. This is a succession role: you take over an existing customer portfolio, as our current Sales Manager retires at the end of 2027. You build on those relationships and open up new opportunities in existing and adjacent markets. The handover is carefully planned and tailored to your knowledge and experience. What you will do Build and strengthen long-term relationships with existing and new customers in your region, and be their go-to person for commercial and technical questions.
