Sales Agent
Sales Agent / Technical Sourcing Partner (m/f) Location
Si assicuri di inviare la sua candidatura con tutte le informazioni richieste, come indicato nella panoramica del lavoro riportata di seguito.
Engagement
Freelance · Commission-based
Focus
Precision manufacturing · Italian metalworking SMEs
CM MetalMarket connects industrial buyers with a network of 50+ certified Indian precision manufacturers (CNC machining, casting, forging, sheet metal, injection moulding — IATF 16949, AS9100, ISO 9001). Our differentiator is the casting + machining + finishing bundle from a single source — exactly the niche the large platforms avoid.
We grow through personal, technically grounded relationships with Italian metalworking SMEs across the mechanical districts of Lombardy, Emilia-Romagna and Veneto — not through anonymous portals. For that, we're looking for an experienced sales engineer who speaks the language of both the design office and purchasing.
Your role Acquisition & account management of Italian mid-market clients (owner-operated machine builders, subcontractors and automotive / industrial suppliers)
RFQ qualification: read drawings, assess tolerances, materials and feasibility — and judge which parts are suited to Indian manufacturing and which are not
Technical translation between customer requirement and supplier capability (cast housings → milling → plating / powder coating, bent / brazed tubing, sheet-metal assemblies, special alloys)
Prototype-to-series support: first-article inspection, customer sign-off,
transition into serial production
Negotiation & relationship building for long-term framework agreements
Your profile Several years of experience as a sales engineer / project manager in metalworking, plant or machine engineering
Solid technical grasp of machining, casting, forming and surface finishing — you can look at a part and see where the manufacturing limits are
Experience in New Product Introduction / prototype-to-series transition is a plus
An existing network in the Italian metalworking sector, or a proven ability to win B2B clients independently
Self-directed, entrepreneurial way of working — you're used to operating freelance and on your own responsibility
Fluent negotiation in Italian and English
Open to xbvzest international sourcing as a complement to — not a replacement for — Italian value creation
What we offer Performance-based compensation with a share of gross profit (GP-share model) — above-average earning potential on recurring orders
Full flexibility: you decide location, hours and workload — an ideal complement to existing self-employment
A desk at our Berlin hub whenever you want a base in Europe or a place to meet clients
No pressure on unit volume , but on the quality of relationships — we build long-term accounts, not one-off deals
We handle back office, supplier management and quality assurance — you focus on the technology and the customer
Direct line to management, short decision paths
