You combine a technical interest with commercial acumen and thrive on customer interaction and building lasting relationships. You’re curious, self-motivated, and enjoy contributing ideas to find solutions. Does this sound like you? Then you’ll want to read this.

Where will you be working?

From stairlifts to chip machines, from control systems in barns to underground trash containers—our electronic components are found everywhere.

You’ll be joining a rapidly evolving high-tech market where no two days are alike. Our manufacturers are located around the world, but the majority are based in Europe.

You’ll work in a small, close-knit team of about 8 colleagues in the office, and you’ll also collaborate closely with 8 product managers in the field. Together, you’ll ensure that customers receive the best possible service.

What are you going to do?

As a Product Manager for LED Lighting, you serve as the key link between engineering, business, and innovation within your product group. You are responsible for solutions in the areas of LEDs, LED drivers, smart controls, and thermal solutions. In this role, you will collaborate with developers, LED fixture manufacturers, and lighting designers who are at the forefront of the industry.

Within your area of expertise, you represent leading international manufacturers in the Benelux market. You maintain contact with suppliers around the world, with a strong focus on Western Europe and Japan. In essence, you are the face of your manufacturers to customers and the link between demand and solutions.

You’ll have a great deal of freedom and responsibility in this role. You’ll work independently from home, visit clients and suppliers regularly, and be part of an enthusiastic team within the Elincom Group, two of whose members are specifically assigned to our sister company, EEMC. You’ll also work closely with the internal sales team to provide clients with the best possible support.

In this role, you will be working on the following:

Analyzing customer inquiries and identifying business opportunities;
Visiting clients to discuss projects and provide technical advice;
Liaising with international suppliers regarding project requests;
Preparing quotes in collaboration with the office staff and monitoring and tracking margins;
Following up on leads from trade shows, websites, and email inquiries;
Keeping up with new developments in LED lighting and communicating them through marketing.

In short: you’re at the top of your game, you know what’s going on in the market, and you don’t let any opportunity slip by.

What makes you the right person for the job?

You don't have to know how to do everything just yet, but this will help:

You have a vocational or college-level education;
You have a technical background, for example in electrical engineering or electronics;
You have a business-minded approach and a proactive attitude;
You have a good command of the Dutch language;
You have a working knowledge of English and/or German.

What do we offer?

You’ll be joining an innovative and international market that is rapidly evolving. You’ll also have plenty of opportunities to develop your skills and work independently.

We offer you:

A 7-month temporary contract with the possibility of a permanent position
A position for 32 to 40 hours per week
A company car that you can also use for personal travel
A competitive salary, including a 13th-month bonus and profit-sharing
An attractive pension plan
27 vacation days + 13 ATV days (based on a 40-hour workweek)
A casual team of dedicated and enthusiastic colleagues
