Headhunter for plastics industry sales
We are premium headhunters and personnel consultants in sales for the plastics industry. An industry that is characterised by a change in image and technological transformation and in which it is important to specifically look for experts who can build a bridge between industrial efficiency and ecological responsibility. SALESJOB will find these candidates for you – throughout Europe and with a guarantee of success.
Technical sales in the plastics industry
Plastic is a high-tech material that is ubiquitous due to its properties – light, malleable, insulating – and is used in a wide variety of areas. For example, in the construction industry for pipes and insulation materials (XPS/EPS) and in medicine as disposable syringes and implants. We are also surrounded by plastic in everyday life: for example, as packaging for cosmetics and casings for smartphones. Plastic is also found in drinking water bottles and clothing. However, sales is about much more than the material and its versatile areas of application.
Specialists in plastics sales must also consider the topics of recycling and recyclate quotas and provide their customers from the packaging industry or the consumer goods sector with sustainable concepts (“Design for Recycling”). The transformation towards the circular economy of plastics is shaping the entire industry. This also includes the automotive industry, which is itself in a state of upheaval. Here, the plastics industry offers exciting solutions for companies with high-performance polymers in lightweight e-car construction (EPP).
For sales experts in the plastics industry, this means that they must have a technical understanding of a wide variety of processes and recognise the opportunities plastics will offer their customers in the future. You need all-rounders who not only negotiate the price per tonne, but also support you in achieving your CO2 targets through an innovative selection of materials.
Michael Lainer, specialized headhunter for plastics sales
“The topic of raw materials is more essential than ever. Raw materials in the plastics sector are mainly obtained from crude oil and rare earths. We have few deposits in Europe, which is why we are heavily dependent on other countries in this area. As a result, there are only a few salespeople who can fall back on a worldwide network of partners in the field of raw materials - and they are of course in demand, but almost always in a permanent position.Nevertheless, we will put you in touch with those who can imagine switching. Over the years, we have intensively cultivated our relationships with sales professionals in the plastics industry and perfected our discreet direct approach to suitable candidates with our Executive Search in sales for the plastics industry.”
Automotive, e-mobility, polymer technology and recycling: we find the best sales experts
If you want to be successful in sales in the plastics industry, you have to be a packaging economist. Someone who sells CO2 balances and can implement recycling on a large scale. The focus is moving away from pure materials sales toward strategic consulting for sustainability, material substitution, and regulatory compliance – in fields such as medical technology, for example.
As experienced headhunters for sales in the plastics industry, we have built up an extensive sustainability network over the years: with experts who have actively shaped the transformation to the bioeconomy and know what will be important for companies in the future. From these, we select the candidates who best meet your search criteria and are a good match for your team, both professionally and personally.
