INEOS Automotive - Built For More

Since we started our journey to build a world-class, no-nonsense 4X4, we've come a long way. We've established INEOS Automotive as a serious contender in vehicle development and manufacturing. We've partnered with some of the biggest names in the automotive industry. We've made our way from vision to prototype. We've secured a world-class production facility and delivery team. We've delivered Grenadiers to customers all around the world. We're building our double cab pick up, the Quartermaster.

People and Culture

Easy never changed anything. Not in manufacturing, science, engineering or energy - and certainly not elite sport. At INEOS we tackle every challenge head-on, and we help extraordinary athletes achieve extraordinary things. When it comes to making positive change, we know nothing gets done without grit, rigour and humour. Our Automotive team consists of around 1500 employees, 10 locations and 44 nationalities; we're an international team working together to challenge the ordinary.

If this sounds like you, let's talk.

Our Area Sales Manager - RoE area will work closely alongside the global commercial team (London), the EU commercial team (Böblingen) and Regional Sales Manager Rest of Europe, as well as wider Commercial teams. With responsibility for an allocated area within Rest of Europe, he/she is responsible for driving sales and business performance across the area as well as being the spokesperson and central point of contact for all sales and marketing activities in the area.

What we are looking for:

• International customer experience; bringing a creative approach and ‘out of the box' thinking is more important than automotive sector experience.
• Experience with top management working environment in the automotive OEM/industry and having the ability to quickly adapt to changing objectives and changing market requirements.
• Up-to-date knowledge with the latest trends within the industry and customer experiences trends. Creative with the ability to think outside the box. IT literacy (presentations and office package) and commercial acumen. Process-driven. Strong presentation and negotiation skills.
