Job description

Turn industry knowledge into business impact

The Netherlands is at the centre of the global semiconductor industry, where engineering excellence, complex supply chains, and long-term partnerships come together.

Quest Global is looking for a Global Account Director to grow a strategic customer relationship within this ecosystem.

This is not a conventional sales position. You will work closely with customer, engineering, and business leaders to understand complex priorities, shape relevant solutions, and build sustainable business.

What you will own

• Build trusted relationships with senior customer and engineering stakeholders
• Understand the customer’s technology priorities and business challenges
• Connect those needs with Quest Global’s engineering capabilities
• Identify, shape, and develop new opportunities
• Bring together global engineering, delivery, and commercial teams
• Take ownership of account growth and long-term customer value
• Represent the customer’s perspective within Quest Global

What you will bring

• You may come from an engineering, technical, programme, account management, or business development background.
• Your current title matters less than your ability to understand the industry, earn credibility, and turn complex conversations into meaningful partnerships.

We are looking for:

• Experience in the semiconductor industry or its supplier ecosystem
• An understanding of complex engineering or technology-led environments
• The ability to engage technical, operational, and commercial stakeholders
• Strong relationship-building skills with sound commercial judgement
• Curiosity, ownership, and the confidence to create opportunities
• The ability to work across customers, delivery teams, and global leadership

Who this role is not for

This opportunity is unlikely to suit someone looking for:

• A purely transactional sales role focused on short-term wins
• An established account that only requires maintenance
• A role centred on selling predefined services without shaping solutions
• Success based primarily on an existing network or contact list
• Opportunities created by others, rather than the responsibility to build them
• Limited involvement with engineering, delivery, or technical stakeholders

We are looking for someone who is prepared to build the relationship, shape the opportunity, and remain accountable for the outcome.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to:

• Build a strategic business in a globally important technology ecosystem
• Influence solutions to complex engineering challenges
• Work at the intersection of technology, customers, and growth
• Create visible and lasting impact
• Build something meaningful rather than simply manage what already exists

If you understand the semiconductor industry and believe strong partnerships can create better engineering and business outcomes, we would value a conversation.
