Technical Internal Sales with Leadership Role

Technical Internal Sales with Leadership Role in the Greater Lucerne Area

You enjoy keeping the threads together in internal sales and want more responsibility than just order processing?

Our client is the Swiss subsidiary of a globally operating corporate group in the field of hydraulics, drive technology and customised system solutions. In this versatile role, you look after customers and orders from quotation to delivery, coordinate collaboration between sales, engineering and purchasing, and ensure that information reaches where it is needed.

What to expect

• You manage the sales mailbox and ensure that customer enquiries are reliably received, prioritised and processed.
• You prepare quotations, record customer orders and accompany them from order to successful completion.
• You manage framework orders and reliably keep an eye on quantities, deadlines and open items.
• You monitor delivery dates and proactively inform customers if dates change.
• You adjust order confirmations, send them out and ensure transparent and up-to-date information for customers.
• You take on administrative tasks in service and support the coordination of ongoing matters.
• You support marketing activities and assist with their operational implementation.
• You ensure high data and process quality in sales and maintain relevant customer and order data.
• You are the link between field sales, technical internal sales, purchasing and customers, ensuring smooth information flow.
• You lead one employee and, in the future, an apprentice both professionally and organisationally and support them in daily business.

What you bring

• You have completed a commercial or technical basic education.
• You have experience in internal sales or a comparable role with customer contact and order processing.
• You are well organised, work in a structured way and keep an overview even with several parallel orders and deadlines.
• You enjoy direct customer contact and have a good sense for sales and service.
• You work independently, think solution-oriented and take responsibility for your tasks and decisions.
• You present yourself confidently and authoritatively and can assert yourself even when different interests need to be coordinated.
• You are proficient in MS Office and ideally have already worked with an ERP system.
• You communicate confidently in German and can additionally communicate in French or English.

Why you would fit

• You do not just want to record orders in internal sales but take responsibility for reliable and customer-oriented processing.
• You enjoy bringing different contacts together and ensuring that open points are consistently clarified.
• You think ahead, set priorities and make independent decisions within your area of responsibility.
• You appreciate direct contact with customers and colleagues and keep a cool head even with short-term changes.
• You want to pass on your experience and can imagine professionally and organisationally supporting an employee and an apprentice in everyday work.
• You feel comfortable in a small, dynamic team with short decision-making paths and personal collaboration.

Onboarding & Training

At the beginning, you will get to know the products, customers and internal processes step by step. Experienced colleagues will show you how sales, technical internal sales and purchasing interact and what matters in quotations, customer orders and delivery dates.

Very soon you will take on your first orders independently. You coordinate customer enquiries, prepare quotations, keep an eye on delivery dates and ensure that field sales, engineering, purchasing and customers are informed about the current status. In doing so, you will get to know the technical products and contexts better and better.

As your confidence grows, so does your area of responsibility. You coordinate processes independently, make decisions in day-to-day business and professionally and organisationally accompany an employee and an apprentice. This way, you develop into an important hub in internal sales that customers and colleagues can rely on.

What is offered

• A versatile permanent position in a specialised Swiss SME with an international environment.
• A varied area of responsibility between customer care, sales, order processing and internal coordination.
• Lots of independence and the opportunity to make your own decisions within your area of responsibility.
• 27 days of holiday, regulated working conditions and a free parking space on site.
• Thorough training in products, customers and internal processes.
• Short decision-making paths and close collaboration with field sales, technical internal sales and purchasing.
• An open, dynamic team with a hands-on mentality and weekly shared lunches.
• The opportunity to take responsibility for an employee and an apprentice and to further develop your professional and organisational skills.
• Support for professional development and expanding your technical and commercial know-how.
