Area Sales Manager, North Africa

Area Sales Manager, North Africa

Do you want to be part of a successful team and develop SKOV’s business in ventilation and farm management systems for the poultry industry in North Africa? Then we have the right job for you as Area Sales Manager.

SKOV is the largest and most acknowledged partner in providing climate solutions, farm management, and digital value chain services for animal production worldwide. We continue our successful growth strategy and seek to strengthen our position and presence in North Africa.

The task will be to increase sales and market share through sales and marketing activities, working with key accounts and distributors. Our headquarters is based in Denmark (Jutland), so the job will include frequent traveling and interaction with customers, stakeholders, and colleagues at SKOV Headquarters in Denmark.

Your role will be to

• Connect and create relations with current and potential direct customers
• Support and develop the dealer network
• Provide system and equipment recommendations to key customers
• Work with the projecting team to provide climate solutions that align with market requirements and customer needs
• Negotiate solutions, terms and price and close the deals
• Keep up to date with market developments and trends to identify sales opportunities
• Promote SKOV on exhibitions and seminars as needed.

Our regional Director, Patrick Cerdá van Leeuwen, says about this opportunity: “At SKOV, we don’t just focus on sales. We focus on building long-term relationships with our customers and improving the well-being of our colleagues. To do this, we intensively train our sales teams to become trusted advisors for our customers. We also deliver training and after-sales service to our customers with our fully dedicated technical team in the region.”

To be a success in this role, we imagine that you have

• A relevant technical degree
• Several years of experience with direct sales and sales via dealers within technology for animal production. It would be preferable if you also have experience with climate solutions for poultry
• Proficiency in English, French, and Arabic at a professional level
• Optimally, you are located in Tunisia, Morrocco and Algeria
• We are looking for a business-oriented colleague who is highly competent in managing the complete sales process—from first contact to closing the deal. Of course, we expect that you are motivated by selling solutions to customers and comfortable building relationships and communicating effectively with others.

We offer you
This is a unique opportunity to be part of the further development of poultry production and the SKOV business in the MENA region. At SKOV, we will take good care of your introduction to the company and our products and solutions – this is done by our SKOV Academy and our sales training program, “SKOV Way of Selling.” Many competent colleagues and specialists will support you in your daily work life, and cooperation is a strong corporate value in the sales team and SKOV as an organization. Our Compensation and Benefits package is based on individual performance and competence.
