Are you an experienced sales manager who wants to drive growth in a technical, international market? Do you enjoy opening new doors, developing strategic customer relationships and closing complex CAPEX sales projects? Can you combine commercial drive with experience selling machines and/or process automation software? If so, we would like to meet you.
KSE – The Batching Experts is a global leader in dosing and weighing systems and automation software for the animal feed, petfood and premix industries. To strengthen our market position in the Benelux and DACH regions, we are looking for a driven Area Sales Manager to actively grow our business there.
As Area Sales Manager you will be responsible within the sales team for selling CAPEX solutions across the Benelux & DACH region. These solutions range from individual machines and process lines to complete factory systems.
You will play an important role in expanding our market position: deepening existing customer relationships, identifying new commercial opportunities and actively driving growth. This is not a reactive role — you will proactively map the market, open new doors and build a structured sales pipeline with both existing and new customers.

You will not work alone: you will be supported by a team of technical and commercial specialists so you can advise customers in-depth and deliver the right solutions together.
You will begin with a comprehensive onboarding programme to learn our products, services and markets. Your first customer visits will be alongside an experienced colleague who will also support you during key project phases.
You will be part of a sales team responsible for maintaining and further developing customer relationships, entering new markets and delivering projects. You will work with an enthusiastic group of Area Sales Managers, Business Development Managers and Technical Consultants who serve the global market. The team offers strong collaboration and support, for example at international trade shows or during key stages of a sales process.

Collaboration is at the heart of what we do. In multidisciplinary teams, we combine our knowledge and strengths to tackle complex customer challenges. You will work closely with skilled engineers, developers, and specialists who are not only experts in their field but also eager to share what they know. At KSE, you’re encouraged to think along – not just with our customers, but with the company itself. Your ideas help shape our direction and growth.

As an Assistant Project Manager, every day brings new challenges. The market is evolving rapidly, and we respond immediately. In the multidisciplinary teams you’re part of, projects are carried out from start to finish. From concept to realisation — you experience it all. That’s what makes the work so interesting and valuable.
Because we are available 24/7 for our customers worldwide, planning and coordinating activities for our service engineers, emergency support, and helpdesk is a daily challenge. It requires a careful balance between planning ahead and responding quickly when unexpected situations arise. No day follows a fixed routine: one moment everything revolves around solving an urgent issue, the next it’s about coordinating maintenance visits across different time zones. It’s exactly this variety – constantly anticipating, adapting, and working closely with colleagues and customers around the world – that makes my role so dynamic and rewarding. It’s very satisfying to know that my work directly contributes to the continuity of our service.
