Technical Sales Consultant Hydraulics

Technical Sales Consultant Hydraulics

Lucerne - Full-time - by arrangement

Do you like to get hands-on when it comes to technical matters?

Our client is a leading family business in the field of industrial hydraulics and mobile hydraulics. In addition to the sale of high-quality hydraulic components, customer-specific systems are developed, manufactured and commissioned in Lucerne. Hydraulic solutions are increasingly complemented by electronics, software and intelligent system integration.

What to expect

• You take commercial responsibility for a defined customer area and develop customised solutions in the field of industrial hydraulics and mobile hydraulics.
• You design hydraulic and electro-hydraulic systems conceptually, develop initial solution approaches and accompany projects from idea to implementation.
• You conduct technical clarifications with customers and suppliers and advise on the selection and design of hydraulic components as well as on the integration of electronic and digital components.
• You prepare technical and commercial offers and take on project planning.
• You coordinate with engineering, purchasing and service to implement projects efficiently and successfully realise customer-specific systems.
• Your customer is your project. You are the first point of contact for your customers and deliberately expand existing relationships.

What you bring

• You have a degree in mechanical engineering or a comparable qualification in hydraulics or automation.
• You have experience in the design, construction or project planning of hydraulic systems.
• You understand mechatronic and digital systems and can practically assess their interaction.
• You have experience in technical business development and recognise market potentials that you turn into concrete projects with engineering expertise.
• You work independently, in a structured manner and take responsibility for your customers and projects.
• You communicate confidently in Swiss German; knowledge of French and English is an advantage.
• You are willing to travel regularly within Switzerland. Ideally, your place of residence is in the Aargau, Central Switzerland or Zurich area and is well connected to the motorway network.

Why you would fit

• You enjoy modern hydraulics that combines mechanics, electronics and digitalisation.
• You want to sell not just components but complete systems that make an impact.
• You are solution-oriented, open to new things and want to develop both technically and personally.
• You appreciate flat hierarchies, short decision-making paths and an environment that fosters ideas.

Onboarding & Flight Level

Right in from the start. In the first weeks, you work closely with the sales colleagues, the technical department and the managing director. You dive straight into the world of hydraulics and get to know the systems and components of your new employer first-hand.

Theory? Yes, but above all practice. You experience how hydraulic components and complete system solutions work in real use: in the workshop, at the customer and occasionally abroad, where you exchange ideas with other hydraulics experts.

Soon you will take on your own customers. Initially, you accompany an experienced colleague to appointments to smoothly take over existing relationships. Afterwards, you manage your own customer portfolio and develop it step by step.

With each week, your knowledge, technical understanding and independence grow. Until at the end of the day you think: Is it already time to finish?

What is offered to you

• A varied and demanding role with high personal responsibility and scope for design.
• A technically oriented working environment with modern infrastructure and long-term prospects.
• A collegial, committed team that lives innovation and supports you in your development.
• You can organise your work flexibly, whether in the office, at home or directly at the customer.
• An exciting position in Central Switzerland with international networking.
• Targeted training opportunities for professional and personal development.
• You benefit from a fair, performance-based salary with bonus components that recognise your personal contribution.
• A company car for private use rounds off the attractive overall package.
