Job description

Are you passionate about making a sustainable impact in the world of electric transport? Do you thrive in an innovative and entrepreneurial environment? Then you could be Erinion’s new Sales Manager in the Netherlands!

About Erinion

As a part of the Scania Group, our client Erinion designs, builds, and operates depot and destination charging solutions for heavy-duty vehicles. By combining the strength of a global transport leader with the agility of a fast-growing company, Erinion's approach focuses on energy efficiency and optimal utilization. This ensures that electrification is not only sustainable but also financially and commercially viable for its customers.

Erinion supports different ways of financing, owning, and operating charging sites, allowing each customer to find the model that best fits their business. With operations across eight European markets and global expansion underway, Erinion enables transport operators to electrify their fleets with confidence and long-term profitability.

Your role

As a Sales Manager, you’ll play a key role in accelerating the shift to electric transport by driving the adoption of depot charging and e-mobility solutions. These include integrated hardware, software, and services that support the electrification of commercial fleet depots. You’ll take full ownership of the sales cycle — from identifying prospects and analyzing the market to shaping tailored proposals, managing complex negotiations, and closing high-impact deals.

This is a high-impact role where you’ll take initiative, act entrepreneurially, and play a direct part in Erinion’s growth. You’ll work on strategic, often long-cycle projects that require both commercial acumen and technical insight. By building strong partnerships and delivering solutions that put the customer first, you’ll support clients in electrifying their operations and advancing toward a more sustainable transport system. You will also act as Erinion’s lead representative in the Netherlands building strong market presence and trusted partnerships.

Your responsibilities

• Build strong and lasting relationships with customers and key stakeholders, representing Erinion in the field and driving business growth.
• Identify and pursue new business opportunities in depot charging and fleet electrification, with a strong focus on customer needs and evolving market trends.
• Own the full sales cycle — from prospecting and pitch delivery to proposal development, negotiation, and deal closure.
• Develop tailored value propositions and act as a trusted advisor, helping clients improve profitability while navigating the shift to electrification.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure customer expectations are aligned with how solutions are delivered.
• Monitor market trends, customer feedback, and competitive activity to continuously refine sales strategies and strengthen Erinion’s offering.
• Contribute insights to shape the local growth strategy and ensure Erinion stays ahead in a fast-evolving market.

Your Profile

We’re looking for a sales professional with a strong track record and the ability to navigate both commercial and technical conversations - ideally with proven experience in electric vehicle charging infrastructure. You bring structure to your sales approach, can operate with a high degree of autonomy, and know how to turn complex customer needs into practical, value-driven solutions. This role is suited to someone who is confident in comfortable working across internal and external teams.

• 3+ years of experience in a sales or commercially driven role, preferably within electric vehicle charging infrastructure or related energy- or e-mobility solutions.
• Comfortable working independently and taking full responsibility for your sales pipeline.
• Proven track record of managing the full sales cycle and closing high-value deals.
• Strong commercial and technical understanding, with a focus on creating value for both customers and business.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
• Fluent in English and Dutch
• Open to frequent travel within your region.
• Previous experience or a network in transport or logistics is a strong plus.
