Profil recherché
Above all, we are looking for a **senior professional capable of becoming a trusted commercial counterpart to sophisticated power-generation customers**.There are two natural routes into the position.
### You may be an experienced Sales Professional
You have significant experience in **enterprise sales, business development or strategic account management**, ideally selling complex technical solutions into energy, utilities, heavy industry or another demanding B2B environment.
You know how to develop new business, navigate complex organizations, manage long sales cycles and engage both technical stakeholders and executives.
Power-generation experience is highly valuable but not mandatory.
What is mandatory is the ability and willingness to develop genuine technical credibility in the sector.
### Or you may be a Power Generation / Technical Professional ready to move into Sales
You have built meaningful professional experience in **power generation, utilities, OEMs or adjacent industrial environments**, potentially across operations, performance, maintenance, reliability, engineering, asset management, technical services or consulting.
You understand power plants and the people who operate them.
You may have worked for a utility, power producer, OEM, engineering company, technical consultancy or technology provider.
You have strong customer instincts, communicate naturally with different stakeholders and are interested in the business dimension behind technical decisions.
You now want to use that experience in a more commercial, entrepreneurial and customer-facing role.
You **do not need to arrive as a trained salesperson**.
But you must genuinely want to become one.
That means being willing to learn and apply disciplines such as prospecting, qualification, value selling, account planning, pipeline management, forecasting, negotiation and closing - and being open to coaching along the way.
**In Both Cases, We Expect**
* Significant professional experience and the maturity to operate independently with major industrial customers.
* Strong intellectual curiosity and learning agility.
* The ability to understand complex technical and business environments.
* Excellent communication and presentation skills.
* The ability to build trust with both engineers and senior executives.
* Strong ownership and a bias toward action.
* Resilience and persistence: enterprise power-generation sales cycles are demanding.
* A structured and analytical approach to opportunities and accounts.
* Comfort operating in an international and evolving environment.
* Coachability and willingness to continuously improve your commercial approach.
**Education & Languages**
* Master's degree in Engineering, Energy, Business or another relevant discipline.
* Fluent English is mandatory.
* French, Spanish and/or other European languages are highly valuable depending on territory.
**Travel**
Regular travel should be expected for customer meetings, power-plant visits, industry events and partner meetings across Europe and occasionally internationally.
