About the Position

As a Technical Sales Specialist, you will have primary responsibility for the sales of the company’s customer-specific products and components. This is a key role in Talema’s continued growth, as you will develop relationships with both existing and new customers. Each customer-specific component is uniquely designed for every project and then manufactured in one of the company’s production facilities. Your work will therefore involve prospecting, customer visits, administrative tasks, participation in trade fairs, and close collaboration with engineers, production staff, and the customer’s internal teams. You will be part of a team that currently includes sales representatives across Europe and the USA, and you will report to the Sales Manager in Sweden and the Country Manager in Germany.

Your main responsibilities include:

• Overall responsibility for the entire sales cycle, from initial contact to final agreement and delivery.
• Connecting the customer’s technical needs with Talema’s specialized solutions in magnetic components.
• Building and maintaining long-term relationships with new and existing customers.
• Acting as an advisor and key contact for the customer.
• Understanding and analyzing customer needs and requirements, both functional and technical, and proposing customized product solutions in collaboration with Talema’s design and development teams.

Qualifications and Quaractaristics 

To succeed in this role, we believe you have a genuine technical interest, a solution-oriented mindset, and a strong ability to build long-term customer relationships. You are patient and capable of handling long sales cycles while establishing trust with customers. You enjoy working both independently and in close collaboration with colleagues to drive sales forward. The role involves being involved throughout the entire project lifecycle, from the first customer contact to final delivery, acting as the link between the customer, engineers, and production. This requires excellent communication skills and the ability to balance technical details with business value. The position includes travel, mainly within Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.

In addition, we are looking for someone who has:

• Approximately 5–10 years of experience in technical B2B sales, for example within electronics, pumps, or fans.
