What will you do as an Inside Sales Representative?

No day is the same. You start your morning by reviewing incoming emails and reports from account managers. What's urgent? Which customer needs something? You set your priorities, handle customer requests for samples or quotes, and ensure everything is processed correctly in the system. You also check whether yesterday's orders were entered correctly: do the item numbers, prices, and delivery dates match? You keep the overview. You are the main point of contact for customers. Picking up the phone comes naturally to you. This way, you build real relationships and immediately notice if a customer is less active than usual. That's the moment to reach out and find out what's going on. In addition to customer contact, you coordinate daily with the field sales team. You make sure their tasks are handled and think about which visits you can join. Occasionally, you attend trade fairs to deepen your product knowledge and stay connected to the market. In short: you are the heart of the inside sales team, where commerce, service, and organization come together.

Responsibilities

• Maintain and expand customer relationships via phone and email.
• Proactively approach customers and prospects.
• Work closely with the field sales team to seize commercial opportunities.

• Occasionally travel to maintain customer relationships and attend international trade

  fairs.

Required Skills

You work in a structured way, pay attention to detail, and keep a cool head when things get busy. Whether it's an order, a quote, or a spontaneous customer conversation: you handle it with care and enthusiasm.

You communicate easily in Dutch, English, or German. Additionally, you have a sense of responsibility and enjoy achieving results together.
