Global Sales Manager – Additive Manufacturing & Advanced Materials – Belgium based
Have you developed new international business for additive manufacturing materials or advanced material applications? Can you work with technical customers to turn material performance into qualified applications and long-term sales?
Our client, an international leader in advanced manufacturing technologies and materials, is seeking a Global Sales Manager to develop its materials business worldwide.
Priority applications include investment casting and wind tunnel testing, alongside industrial prototyping and other selected applications where its materials offer a clear technical and commercial advantage.
Based in Belgium, this is a hands-on individual contributor role with no people-management responsibilities. You will join an international materials sales team, identify new markets and take ownership of complex opportunities from initial application development through qualification and commercial conversion.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify and develop new customers, applications and markets globally.
- Build targeted business development plans for priority applications.
- Engage engineers, R&D teams and industrial decision-makers to understand their processes, performance requirements and current material solutions.
- Demonstrate the technical and commercial benefits of alternative materials.
- Manage opportunities through material evaluation, customer trials, qualification, specification and negotiation, converting them into recurring sales.
- Build relationships with OEMs, industrial end users, service bureaus and relevant partners.
- Maintain an accurate pipeline and forecasts, contributing to revenue, gross-margin and wider team objectives.
Your Profile
- A strong technical background in engineering, materials science or chemistry, ideally combined with experience in a technical or application engineering role before moving into sales.
- Proven success in international technical sales or business development.
- Experience in additive manufacturing / 3D printing is strongly preferred. Candidates selling advanced materials for similar industrial applications and qualification requirements will also be considered.
- Experience with investment casting, wind tunnel testing or industrial prototyping would be particularly valuable.
- Strong knowledge of polymers, resins, powders or engineered materials, and the ability to explain their technical and commercial benefits to industrial customers.
- Experience selling materials directly, or selling equipment and technical solutions where material selection, qualification and repeat material purchases are central to the customer relationship.
- Fluent English; additional languages are an advantage.
Location & Travel
You must be based in Belgium or willing to relocate there. The role involves substantial international travel, approximately 60%, and regular collaboration across regions and time zones.
- €90,000–€110,000 gross annual base salary, depending on experience
- Performance-related variable compensation
- Company car
- Pension and hospitalisation insurance
- Working-from-home allowance
