Business Development & Marketing Executive – Automotive (m/f/d)

About the job

LIQUI MOLY Switzerland AG, Baar (ZG)

Everything that moves runs better with LIQUI MOLY. And with you!

With over 4,000 products around engine oils, additives, car care, chemical repair aids as well as service, adhesive and sealing products, LIQUI MOLY is one of the world’s leading brands in the field of lubricants and vehicle chemicals.

With the newly founded LIQUI MOLY Switzerland AG based in Baar (ZG), we are further expanding our presence in the Swiss market. In recent months, we have developed our sales strategy, defined potential customer segments, and created a marketing and sponsorship plan. Now it is about bringing these plans to life and successfully implementing them in the market.

For this, we are looking for a committed, communicative and entrepreneurial-minded person who is eager to take responsibility, inspire partners, and build something together with us.

Your tasks

• Active approach and development of potential new customers, including acquisition
• Building and maintaining long-term customer relationships
• Supporting the implementation of our sales strategy
• Managing and developing our sales pipeline and CRM activities
• Supporting the establishment and collaboration with our future field sales staff
• Implementing the existing marketing plan
• Coordinating marketing campaigns, sales materials and promotions
• Contributing to social media and digital marketing activities
• Planning and executing events, trade fairs and customer events
• Coordinating and managing sponsorship activities
• Representing our company at automotive and industry events
• Monitoring the market, competition and new business opportunities

What you bring with you

We are not necessarily looking for the person with the longest CV. Much more important to us are personality, motivation and the will to make a difference.

Ideally, you bring:

• Initial professional experience in sales, business development, marketing or a comparable function
• Ideally 2–5 years of professional experience
• Enjoyment of direct customer contact and active new customer acquisition
• Very good communication and presentation skills
• Independent, structured and reliable working style
• Entrepreneurial thinking and high initiative
• Organisational talent and enjoyment in implementing projects
• Confident handling of digital tools, CRM systems, presentations and social media
• Willingness to visit customers and participate in events and functions, sometimes outside usual working hours
• Very good German and French skills
• English skills are an advantage

Automotive means more to you than just mobility

Are you interested in cars, motorsport, technology or the automotive industry?

Perfect.

Experience with lubricants is not a must for us. What matters is that you have an interest in technical products and are willing to familiarise yourself with our industry.

Experience in the automotive aftermarket, workshops, importers, tyre, spare parts or technical B2B companies is naturally a plus.

What to expect from us

You won’t get a predefined corporate role with us.

You will have the opportunity to actively shape the development of a company and directly influence our market development with your ideas.

We offer you:

• Lots of personal responsibility and scope for creativity
• Direct collaboration with management
• Short decision-making paths
• A varied combination of sales, marketing, business development and events
• The opportunity to contribute and implement your own ideas
• A dynamic environment in an exciting growth phase
• Very good personal and professional development opportunities
• The chance to grow yourself alongside the company’s growth
• A role with visible influence on the success and development of our company

Who this role is especially exciting for

Perhaps you currently work as a Sales Representative, Junior Key Account Manager, Marketing Specialist, Business Development Executive, Product Specialist or Junior Area Sales Manager.

You have already gained some experience but now want to take on more responsibility, be closer to decisions and see for yourself the difference your work makes.

You are not just looking for the next job, but an opportunity to develop professionally and personally and actively contribute to building a company.

Then this position could be your next step.

Interested?

If you are keen to help us build a market, win new customers, further develop our brand and become part of an entrepreneurial growth story, we look forward to getting to know you.
