Vacancy
Acquisition based on this advertisement is not appreciated. We usually fill the vacancies ourselves and in exceptional cases we work with preferred suppliers.
As a Junior Demand Generation Specialist at EuroSort, you will be trained to find and develop leads (convincing phase) to prospects (potential customers with serious interest). You will learn about the material handling market by developing your knowledge and skills together with the Marketing and Sales team and other operational departments. You will focus on German-speaking countries, such as Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Therefore, knowledge of the German language is important.
Together with the Marketing and Sales team, you will determine which target groups and regions to focus on in your outreach. You will approach these target groups through various channels, such as cold calls, desk research, and online platforms, such as the company's website and LinkedIn. You will ensure a continuous influx of new leads, which are handed over to the respective Sales Manager when there is concrete interest. The goal is to convert prospects into orders.
During your development, you will also conduct market research, identifying market opportunities and contributing ideas on the potential of certain ideas, such as new products and services, based on your conversations and research. You will closely monitor changes and interesting developments in the market. Your insights will be actively shared with our R&D team, so we always stay ahead of the competition and can offer innovative solutions to our customers.
In this role, you will keep all relationships and their status up to date in the CRM system. You will also contribute to product and tool improvements with insights from market data and customer contacts. If necessary, you will be involved in giving customer presentations, both online and offline, and manning the booth at trade shows and events.
The emphasis within this role is on responsible and well-considered growth, rather than driven expansion. You will be part of a dedicated and energetic team consisting of six people in various marketing roles.
If you enjoy making a good first connection with potential customers and find it challenging that you sometimes face rejection, then this is a job for you.
Working week
On an enjoyable working day, you have finally spoken to a customer you have been trying to reach for months. You also hear from your Sales colleagues that a customer, whom you handed over to them a year ago, has signed a contract for a new sorter.
On a less enjoyable working day, you deal with many rejections. You also get few potential customers on the phone.
