Key Responsibilities
Sales Engineering Industrial’s role is to provide technical consulting on our portfolio of products and services — particularly regarding installation — in support of both our sales organization and our customers.
This is a relatively new role in our team, so you’ll have the opportunity to shape the way we work and make meaningful improvements. You’ll also have the chance to travel and engage with customers around the world.
As a Sales & Application Manager, you will also serve as the voice of our customers in the development of new products and services. By translating customer needs into input for Product Management Industrial and the Product Development organization, we ensure market requirements are met. For this specific role, you will take the lead in driving future sales from an application perspective.
Who Are You?
Most importantly, you have an open and positive attitude. You’re a true team player who always keeps customers and colleagues in focus. You are an effective communicator with excellent English skills, both spoken and written.
You approach challenges with a system-level mindset and can balance theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience. Ideally, you have a background in power electronics and a strong customer-oriented mindset that enables you to find successful solutions.
What You Bring
- Collaborative mindset & networking skills:
You’ll work closely with our sales teams, customers, product planning, and product development, as well as with colleagues across the Volvo Group. - Self-driven & highly motivated:
This role is perfect for an open-minded individual who’s eager to learn, take initiative, and contribute to future customer installations — especially in electrical power solution applications.
We can’t promise you an easy job — but we can promise a team of skilled colleagues and some truly exciting challenges. You’ll work in a global environment with opportunities to grow both professionally and personally.
At Volvo Penta, we want you to thrive and be happy — because when you succeed, we succeed.
Together, we drive prosperity.
