job details

Are you motivated to drive proactive sales, build long-term customer relationships and take full commercial responsibility for the customer portfolio in Central and Northern Jutland? Do you want to make your mark, achieve tangible results and advise on quality products for a global, market-leading organization? Then the position as Area Sales Manager at Legrand may be the right job opportunity for you. ...

about the job

In the role of Area Sales Manager your primary task is to introduce Legrand's entire product portfolio to new customers as well as build, develop and advise the existing customer base. You must be prepared to handle ongoing inquiries, identify new business opportunities across business areas and work structurally to build a strong sales pipeline and long-term, value-creating customer relationships.

The position requires that you thrive with proactive sales work with particular emphasis on strengthening Legrand's position through close contact with installers, wholesalers and other partners. It is a varied position with great freedom to plan your day yourself, where you have good opportunities for both professional development and increased responsibility.

Your primary tasks will be

• Actively seeking out new customers and identifying new areas to introduce Legrand's products, present the benefits and establish strong customer relationships, as well as developing the existing customer base through advisory, upselling and high customer service.
• Work structurally with the sales pipeline and identify projects that create value and strengthen the customers' business going forward.
• Continuously register and update customer activities, offers, projects and sales leads in the CRM system as well as Outlook.
• Build and maintain close relationships with wholesalers, electrical installers and other relevant actors in the market.
• Plan, organize and participate in relevant customer events, trade fairs and sales activities in the area.

about you

To succeed in the role it is essential that you are able to build relationships with both internal and external stakeholders. Your success is measured by your ability to independently drive commercial growth, build a sales pipeline and create long-term relationships with customers, partners and colleagues. You have a strong hunter mindset, thrive with 'freedom under responsibility' and work in a structured and proactive way in a dynamic market. In addition, you are strong in communication and have skills in both Danish and English in writing and speech.

It is expected that you contribute with

• A technical or commercial background within the electrical sector (e.g., trained electrician, experience from an electrical wholesaler or similar) is an advantage but not a requirement. The crucial thing is your personality, drive and willingness to learn as well as a basic technical flair and interest in the industry.
• 1–5 years of experience from a similar commercial role is an advantage.
• Experience with actively prospecting sales (hunter mindset) as well as building, maintaining and developing long-term customer relationships is an advantage.
• Experience with working structurally with a sales pipeline and presenting product value and benefits directly to the customer is an advantage.
• Experience with CRM systems and MS Office (especially Outlook) for recording customer activities, following up on leads and daily administration is an advantage.
• Strong communication skills and language abilities in both Danish and English, written and spoken.
• Valid driver's license (category B).
