Technical Sales Manager

Business Development Manager – Personal Care (Germany – Frankfurt Area, Remote)

Are you a driven sales professional with a passion for the personal care sector? This is a rare opportunity to join a global market leader, expanding its presence in Germany, and play a key role in driving growth within the cosmetics and health & beauty industries.

The Role

As Business Development Manager, you’ll take ownership of a new and growing territory in Germany with huge untapped potential. This is a hunter role: you’ll be responsible for opening doors, building a strong pipeline, and developing strategic customer relationships.

You’ll have the backing of a technical and account management team, but you’ll be expected to work autonomously, managing your own territory, travelling regularly (approx. 3 days per week on the road), and influencing a wide range of internal and external stakeholders.

This is a chance to make your mark in a business with a proven reputation across Europe, now investing in Germany as a key growth market.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Driving new customer acquisition across personal care and cosmetic industries
• Managing a significant pipeline of opportunities with a consultative sales approach
• Selling value‑based solutions that go beyond price, backed by technical and service excellence
• Building credibility with senior stakeholders in R&D, production, quality, and procurement
• Collaborating across internal teams to ensure the right expertise is brought in at the right time
• Representing the company at industry events, trade shows, and client sites

What We’re Looking For

Hard Skills

• 6+ years of successful B2B technical or consultative sales experience
• Strong network and knowledge within the personal care/cosmetics/health & beauty sector
• A degree in engineering, science, or similar technical background
• Fluent in German and English (written and spoken)

Soft Skills

• Hunter mindset: persistent, creative, and motivated to open new doors
• Value‑based seller: skilled at articulating solutions beyond price and handling competitive pressures
• Collaborative and influential: able to work across a matrix organisation and bring people together
• Autonomous and resilient: thrives in a remote role with high travel and ownership of results

Why Join?

• Opportunity to build a new market in Germany with strong support from a global organisation
• Excellent package: competitive salary, performance‑based incentives, company car, and benefits
• Real career progression: the business invests in developing talent and has a track record of fast promotions for high performers

Interested? Apply today to find out more about this exciting opportunity and how you can shape the growth of the German personal care market.
