Are you an enthusiastic account manager with an international orientation, and does your heart beat faster for interiors and furnishings? Then continue reading immediately! Satelliet is significantly growing in the Northwest European market. For the expansion of our export team, we are looking for a colleague to help us achieve our growth ambitions.
What will you do?
Together with the export team, you ensure that our customers lack nothing. Together, you are responsible for the turnover of our export department. You maintain contact with potential and existing customers or accompany them on showroom visits. You are there to provide them with your advice. Often, you don't yet know what the customer needs, and likely, they don't know precisely either. By engaging in conversation, you uncover their wishes and needs, and based on your advice, you work together to find a suitable furniture solution. To serve your customer perfectly and close the final deal, you can rely on your product knowledge and a unique range of furniture with many customization possibilities. Closing the final deal gives you a thrill, but the interesting journey towards it gives you just as much energy. Additionally, you have no problem administratively managing that deal afterward.
Who are you?
You are a true relationship builder with an eye for commercial results. You are driven to meet new people and build relationships. You enjoy going out occasionally, for example, to (inter)national trade fairs. You have insight into the international field in which Satelliet operates, and you can identify and expand strategic collaborations. The sale of our collections abroad mainly takes place through dealers and architects. You approach people with an open mind, and you can empathize well. With your sense of style and affinity for interior and decoration, you are a genuine advisor, but you also know when to act and persuade people. Your colleagues, like the customers, can rely on you. A sense of responsibility and flexibility are natural to you. You are open, honest, and hospitality is in your DNA. Your enthusiasm is infectious and can be conveyed over the phone as well.
