Sales Lead - Discrete Manufacturing

Microsoft, sales, some experience, internal role
Belgium

Do you want to drive growth at the crossroads of business, technology and innovation? At delaware, we partner with Microsoft and SAP to deliver end-to-end solutions that help leading Discrete Manufacturing and Automotive companies transform their operations. As a Sales Manager within our IVS MAKE team, you’ll be at the heart of this journey — building strong customer relationships, shaping strategic deals and creating real business impact.

You’ll have the freedom to act as an entrepreneur, supported by a strong brand, deep expertise and an international customer base. Ready to take the lead and make a difference? 

What will you be doing?

As a Sales Manager, you will be in the lead for our client portfolio in the Discrete Manufacturing and Automotive business.

  • You will be in the driving seat as a Sales Lead in our IVS MAKE (industry value stream): you will help the IVS to grow, develop and manage a dedicated sales team.
  • Your playing field is our entire services & IT portfolio, with a clear focus on Microsoft and SAP. You’ll maintain excellent relationships with all (y)our customer contacts, but also use your network to generate new customers.
  • You’ll follow up your sales processes (from lead to contract) in all autonomy from A to Z. Together with technical consultants you propose a solution, you always choose the consultative sales approach. This means you sell based on knowledge and expertise.
  • You’ll also commit to being a true account manager: you’re part of the team and support our consultants and customers in all phases of the project.
  • You’ll also keep a close eye on the many internal, innovative projects at delaware.

Who are we?

Together with our business partners Microsoft and SAP, we implement end-to-end business application solutions for an international group of customers. Of course, before starting the actual implementation, we need to convince them of the solutions and services we offer. And that’s where you come in!

Within our commercial organization we work in Industry Value Streams (IVS), responsible for leading our efforts in five industry groups, with a clear focus on delivering value to our customers. Our IVS MAKE with an extensive network in discrete manufacturing and automotive customers, not only offers business development, but also manages alliances with our vendors or technology partners, marketing and hospitality.

Just so you know: delaware has its offices in Antwerp, Ghent, Kortrijk, Lummen, Liège and Wavre, but we also spend a lot of time working together with our customers on-site

If you are already part of #peopleofdeaware, we encourage moving up and around within the company. Do you think the open position might be a good fit for you? If so, feel free to chat with the recruiter to explore the possibilities!

Is there a match?

    • Do you have at least 5 years of work experience in a commercial role within the Discrete Manufacturing or Automotive industry?
    • Having experience in selling IT and software implementation projects would make you the cream of the crop, but we are absolutely open to experts from other services too.
    • Are you an experienced lead or are you looking for a next step as a lead?
    • Are you comfortable sitting around the table with CxOs of medium to large companies and discuss possible IT solutions together?
    • Do you communicate fluently in English and Dutch? French is a plus!

    The great thing about this role, is that you will have freedom to shape it yourself and be a true entrepreneur. Come have a chat with us if that’s who you want to be!

Let's meet up!
