With over 25,000 employees across more than 650 locations in 46 countries, we offer an inspiring work environment with diverse development opportunities. As a company with Japanese roots, we embrace the philosophy of Kaizen – the culture of continuous improvement – in all our business areas.

As Sales Manager (all) for Japanese Accounts, you are responsible for acquiring new Japanese-related customers and maintaining strong relationships with existing ones. Your mission is to drive business growth by offering tailored logistics solutions across all modes of transport – air, ocean, land, and contract logistics. This includes regular contact via phone and personal visits to ensure customer satisfaction and to position our full-service offering as a trusted logistics partner.

Your Responsibilities for Sales:

In this role, you will take responsibility for developing and nurturing long-term business relationships with Japanese customers in the Southern Germany region. Inspired by the spirit of Omotenashi – wholehearted hospitality and service – you will…

• Proactively engage with new and existing Japanese-related customers through regular phone calls and personal visits, always aiming to build trust and mutual understanding.
• Plan and implement thoughtful sales strategies to achieve sustainable monthly and annual growth targets.
• Promote tailored logistics solutions across all service areas – Air Freight, Ocean Freight, Land Transport, and Contract Logistics – with a strong commitment to quality and reliability.
• Coordinate tender processes with great care, working closely with our product teams to ensure customer needs are fully understood and met.

• A completed commercial apprenticeship or relevant academic background, along with strong experience in field sales – ideally within the logistics industry.
• Excellent command of German, English, and Japanese, as well as a deep understanding of Japanese business culture.
• Sound knowledge of logistics services – especially in air and ocean freight, land transport, and contract logistics, including both import and export.
• A proven track record in acquiring and developing customers, with a strategic mindset and a focus on long-term partnerships.
• Strong communication skills, intercultural competence, and the ability to act with professionalism and appreciation in an international environment.
• A valid Class B driver’s license and the willingness to travel regularly within Germany and occasionally abroad.
