As sales manager you will be handling all sales activities for near-to-market products and you will be the one initiating the dialogue with potential customers though cold-calling or though networking activities like conferences, trade fairs etc.

Owning the full breadth of the sales and marketing activities you are offered a position with significant growth potential both professionally and personally. Moreover you will join an international team of 20 team-oriented and entrepreneurial people, who are passionated about making a difference in the world.

Profile

To successfully build the commercial capabilities of Biosyntia, you have a significant track record working B2B with personal care or human nutrition related products, hereunder active ingredients.

You have a well developed commercial toolbox besides a strong conceptual approach to marketing products and conducting sales. This combined with your market knowledge enables you to identify opportunities, qualify these with the technical team and generate and convey the right communication to test concepts and products with the market.

A relevant technical degree within food technology or another related field, is a plus but not a must. However you need to have a certain level of understanding of the technical aspects of the products and their applications. Most importantly you are able to translate the technical aspects into a market perspective and you are a skilled communicator in English – both written and orally - with an excellent command of relevant IT-tools and platforms.

On the personal side you are a go-getter with a strong drive for outbound activities and closing of sales. You are motivated by identifying customers’ needs and coming up with solutions they buy into.

With a positive spirit which is solution- and feedback oriented you find excitement in varying tasks and in a work environment with changing priorities.

Last but not least you are motivated by joining a growing start-up company with its challenges and opportunities, and you can work independently, but you appreciate and recognize the need for a team.
