If this sounds like you, this opportunity might be the perfect next move.
Your Role
As their Sales Manager for Spain & Portugal, you’ll take full responsibility for the Iberian market, driving business development and managing key customer relationships across the automotive and industrial sectors.
You will:
- Build and strengthen long-term partnerships with automotive importers, national subsidiaries, and industrial customers.

- Work closely with the technical and design teams to turn customer needs into innovative product solutions.

This role blends strategic development and hands-on account management, giving you autonomy, variety, and direct impact.

We’re looking for someone who has:
- At least 5 years of experience in B2B sales or project management of technical, graphic, or automotive products.
- Experience working with automotive importers, OEM subsidiaries, or industrial accounts.
- The ability to manage complex, multi-step development cycles (PPAP experience is a plus).
- Fluency in Spanish and English (French or Catalan would be a strong asset).
- An independent, proactive, and organised approach.
What’s Offered
- Join a European company with a creative and technical DNA, serving some of the biggest automotive names in the industry.
- Represent a trusted, quality-driven brand with room for growth in Spain and Portugal.
- Enjoy autonomy, international collaboration, and the chance to shape the company’s future in the Iberian market.
- A competitive salary package based on experience and contribution.
