  • Build strategic, trust-based partnerships with decision makers and influencers; map and expand relationships across customer organizations.

  • Coordinate sales activities end-to-end (demand creation, opportunity shaping, proposals, negotiation, closure) in alignment with business goals.

  • Manage the resolution of customer issues, ensuring timely, high-quality service and a superior customer experience.

  • Forecast, track, and report pipeline, revenue, margin, and account health; use insights to adjust plans and prioritize actions.

  • Lead or coordinate cross-functional teams (technical, service, operations, finance, legal) to deliver winning solutions.

  • Manage projects or processes with limited oversight; coach, review, and delegate work to colleagues as needed.

  • Uphold compliance with Hitachi Energy policies, including HSE, quality, integrity, and data privacy.

Your background

  • Bachelor's degree minimum, preferably in Electrical, Electromechanical, or Electronic Engineering.

  • 5+ years of account management, key account, or solution sales experience; energy/power, grid automation, or industrial electrification sector experience strongly preferred.

  • Proven track record of delivering growth with complex, multi-stakeholder customers and solution/value-based selling.

  • Interest and familiarity with sales to industrial customers of electrical equipment, protection and control systems, and related software.

  • Strong commercial acumen: pipeline management, forecasting, pricing, and contract negotiation.

  • Excellent stakeholder management and problem-solving skills; comfortable with difficult, often complex challenges.

  • Languages: Fluent Dutch and intermediate-to-fluent English required.

  • Proactive, curious, and eager to learn; self-driven with strong ownership and teamwork mindset.

  • Willingness to travel to customer sites across the Netherlands and occasionally within the Benelux region.

What we offer

  • Competitive compensation with performance-based incentives.
