Job description

You see commercial opportunities across borders. You know how to build relationships, negotiate prices and respond to market developments. As an Account Manager at Myne, you will be responsible for further developing our German or French market. You will build your own customer portfolio, maintain relationships with existing customers and actively identify new business opportunities. You understand what customers need, know what is happening in the market and ensure that the right metal flows are sourced for Myne. From the initial contact to the delivery of the material, you are involved throughout the entire commercial process.

Are you commercially driven, fluent in German or French, and motivated by international trade, customer relationships and negotiations? Then we would love to meet you.

About Myne

At Myne, we are building the future of the metal industry. We believe in a world where metals can be recycled endlessly and raw materials are never lost. With our innovative Xorter technology, developed in collaboration with Delft University of Technology, we make high-quality metal recycling possible and contribute to a circular economy every day. From our headquarters in Harderwijk, more than 75 enthusiastic colleagues work towards one shared mission: making the recycling industry smarter, more sustainable and more innovative. We operate across several European markets, and our business is growing. That is why we are looking for an Account Manager who wants to further develop our German or French market and help us seize new commercial opportunities.

What will you do as an Account Manager?

As an Account Manager, you will be responsible for maintaining and expanding customer relationships in either the German or French market. You understand the importance of strong customer relationships, but you also look beyond them: where are the new opportunities, and how can we strengthen our position in the market?

Your responsibilities will include:

• Relationship management: You maintain contact with existing customers and build long-term relationships. You do this by phone, email and WhatsApp, as well as through personal visits.

• New business opportunities: You actively identify potential customers and commercial opportunities to further expand our presence in the German or French market.

• Purchasing and negotiations: You negotiate prices and terms and ensure that Myne can purchase the right metal flows on competitive terms.

• Market knowledge: You follow developments in the metal trading industry, monitor price movements and stay up to date with what is happening among customers and competitors.

• End-to-end account management: You oversee the entire process, from the initial contact and price negotiations to delivery and the final settlement of each transaction.

  You will work alongside a commercial team of 12 colleagues covering several European markets. You will have plenty of freedom and responsibility to manage your own market and customer portfolio. Together with your colleagues, you will share knowledge, identify opportunities and contribute to Myne's continued growth.

Who are you?

You are commercially minded, enjoy connecting with people and like building relationships while achieving results. You take initiative, recognise opportunities and can adapt quickly when the market or a customer requires it. You work independently, but you also know when to involve colleagues to achieve the best results together.

In addition, you have:

• A bachelor's degree.

• Approximately 2 to 5 years of relevant experience in account management, sales, international trade or a similar commercial role.

• Strong German or French language skills, allowing you to communicate independently with customers in that market.

• A good command of English. Dutch is an advantage.

• Experience in relationship management, negotiations and customer communication.

• A proactive, entrepreneurial and results-driven mindset.

• An interest in market developments, commerce and the future of the metal industry.

  Experience in metal trading, recycling or another trading environment is an advantage, but not essential. What matters most is that you have commercial insight, enjoy working with customers and are eager to learn about our markets and materials.

Why work at Myne?

At Myne, you will have the opportunity to create your own opportunities, build an international network and contribute to the growth of our business. You will be responsible for your own market and have a direct impact on our commercial results. Here's what you can expect:

• A gross monthly salary of €3,500 to €5,500, depending on your experience.

• 8% holiday allowance.

• An annual performance-based bonus.

• 25 vacation days, with the option to purchase additional days.

• A good pension scheme.

• Flexible working hours and the possibility to work partly from home.

• Plenty of freedom, responsibility and room for your own initiative.

• An open and transparent organisation with short lines of communication and an informal working atmosphere.

• Plenty of opportunities for personal and professional development.

• Regular social activities and a sports programme.

• The opportunity to work towards a sustainable mission that makes a real impact.
