Your New Role

As Business Development Manager, you are responsible for driving new business growth across Europe. You focus on opening new doors, building long-term commercial relationships and developing a sustainable opportunity pipeline within large, complex organizations.

This is a pure new business role with a long-term perspective. You will work on strategic target accounts with lengthy investment cycles, where success depends on trust-building, market insight, and persistence rather than short-term wins.

  • Map target regions, industries and strategic accounts and define focused action plans

  • Build and manage a qualitative sales pipeline through continuous prospecting and follow-up
  • Understand customer processes, strategic challenges and long-term investment roadmaps
  • Prepare and deliver tailored presentations, demonstrations and commercial proposals
  • Collaborate with internal engineering and solution teams to translate business needs into technical solutions
  • Represent the organization at customer meetings, industry events and conferences
  • Maintain structured reporting and pipeline management through CRM tools
  • Contribute to long-term growth strategy, forecasting and market development initiatives

Your Profile

  • At least 3 years of experience in Business Development within a technical or industrial environment
  • Educational background in engineering, industrial technology or IT, or equivalent technical-commercial experience
  • Experience or affinity with industries such as energy, process industry, industrial systems or infrastructure is a plus
  • Demonstrated ability to generate new business, open new accounts and build relationships from the ground up
  • Strong hunter mentality with resilience and confidence in approaching senior stakeholders
  • Comfortable operating in environments with long sales cycles and high-value investment projects
  • Strong communication and presentation skills at executive and technical levels
  • Languages: English and Dutch are mandatory; additional European languages (German or French) German is a plus
Willingness to travel regularly (short, project-based trips)

What's in It for You

  • Competitive gross monthly salary (indicative range €5,000 – €6,500, depending on experience)
  • Annual performance-based bonus, with a first-year focus on pipeline development
  • Company car with fuel card
  • Meal vouchers
  • Group and hospitalization insurance
  • Laptop and mobile phone
  • Flexible hybrid working model
  • 32 days of leave (20 legal + 12 ADV)
