Jobbeschreibung

CSG Talent is supporting a high growth European technology company developing advanced automation solutions for the battery recycling and automotive circular economy.

The business has developed proprietary technology combining robotics, automation, diagnostics and intelligent disassembly to help customers safely and efficiently dismantle complex battery and electrified systems.

Following continued growth and expansion across Europe, they are looking for a Business Development Manager to help accelerate commercial traction across the DACH region.

This is not a senior leadership hire. The business is looking for someone who already has enough commercial experience to independently manage customers and close opportunities, but who is still ambitious, hands on and motivated by the opportunity to grow with an early-stage technology company.

This is not a senior leadership hire. The business is looking for someone who already has enough commercial experience to independently manage customers and close opportunities, but who is still ambitious, hands on and motivated by the opportunity to grow with an early-stage technology company.

The Role

You will take ownership of developing new commercial opportunities across Germany, Austria and Switzerland, working closely with the leadership and engineering teams to introduce the company's technology to OEMs, recyclers and other industrial customers.

What We’re Looking For

The ideal candidate will have several years of experience in business development, technical sales or industrial B2B sales.

• Approximately 3-7 years of relevant commercial experience
• A track record of personally generating new opportunities and opening doors with customers
• Experience selling to OEMs, recyclers or other industrial/technology businesses

You will have significant exposure to the management team, ownership of a strategically important market and the opportunity to grow your responsibilities as the company scales.
