At GEA, we seek to drive our global service sales and ensure strong support to our international customers and service organizations. This is your chance to identify new opportunities as you help us deliver the best possible service to our customers.

Join us and gain a role in a growing international team with room for creativity and mutual exchange of knowledge.

Responsibilities / Tasks

Joining our office in Søborg, you will be welcomed into our Service Team.

You will be responsible for supporting our regional sales offices to achieve growth and profitability targets through several revenue streams. This entails selling service contracts, replacement, upgrades, modernization, revamping or maybe an audit.

You will both carry out operational tasks within service sales activities, tactical tasks for regional reporting and forecasting through tasks on the strategic level – as well as recommend regional strategies that ensure a continuation of strong, profitable growth.

Your job will take you travelling internationally up to 80 days a year, and you will:

• Develop our market and be responsible for improving our customer’s business based on GEA’s offerings
• Work closely with our regional colleagues and customers and drive GEA’s relationship, and customer focus
