Head of Sales Concrete & Surfacing with Deputy Managing Director BERAG and fbr/kbs

Whether concrete or surfacing:
You sell both because you are fascinated by the solutions created with these products.

For the Kästli affiliated companies Frischbeton AG Rubigen (fbr), Kies- und Betonwerk Schwarzenburg (kbs) and BERAG Belagslieferwerk Rubigen AG we are looking for a convincing personality who combines sales, operational day-to-day business and entrepreneurial thinking. In this versatile role, you are responsible for sales in both field and internal sales and simultaneously support the two managing directors as a sparring partner and deputy internally and externally.
You fit with us if you like to take responsibility, inspire people with technical solutions and enjoy being closely involved in day-to-day business. You understand that sales in the construction environment is more than prices and offers: it is about trust, quality, reliability and a good sense for customers, market and feasibility.

• You work in an environment with short distances, direct exchange and close proximity to management
