Industry experience is not a must. What matters is your drive, willingness to learn, interest in products in architectural landscaping, and your enjoyment of finding solutions together.

What are your responsibilities?

In this versatile position, you work at the interface of sales, purchasing, and product management. You actively shape our range, bring in market and customer needs, and support the ongoing development of our products. You will be accompanied by an experienced team and at the same time have the space to contribute your own ideas.

• You are the contact person for specific customer enquiries, prepare quotations, and support advice on our product range.
• Depending on experience and training phase, you are also directly involved in customer advice. Telephone customer contact helps you quickly and practically get to know our customers, products, and processes.
• You maintain contact with customers and suppliers and build sustainable relationships.

What you bring

• A commercial education or a comparable foundation.
• Initial professional experience is welcome. Motivation, willingness to learn, and the desire to take responsibility are important.
• If you already have experience, we look forward to your knowledge – but it is equally important to us that you remain open, learn new things, and question existing solutions.
• You are curious, think along, and want to understand how products, customer needs, sales, and purchasing are connected.
• You enjoy working in a team, are reliable, and bring a healthy dose of initiative. You communicate openly, clearly, and respectfully.
• You like approaching people and enjoy contact with customers and suppliers. Interest in garden topics, architecture, or technical products is a plus.
• You have fluent German skills and intermediate to good spoken French skills (from B1).

Why join us?

• You will receive a varied and independent role close to product, market, sales, and purchasing.
• You will be supported by a committed team and can take on responsibility.
• We offer you a dynamic environment with flat hierarchies and short decision-making paths.
• With us, it’s not only about what you already can do, but also what you want to learn and achieve.
• You work in a company with around 50 years of history that is continuously developing.
