At Caldic Techniek, you’ll have a role with substance, responsibility, and the freedom to take the lead. You’ll work with top-brand products and collaborate with customers, suppliers, and colleagues. You’ll play a key role in our growth as a supplier to the machine building industry.

In this role, you’ll be much more than just an inside sales representative. You’ll be the one who translates technical customer inquiries into concrete solutions. You’ll contribute ideas, offer advice, coordinate, and guide the sales process from inquiry to solution.

You’ll work in a small, close-knit team where communication is direct and your input matters. If you’re looking for a role that combines technology, sales, and independence, this is the right place for you.

• Advising Dutch machine and equipment manufacturers on suitable technical solutions;
• contributing ideas regarding applications in the field of timing belt drives and conveyors;
• drafting, developing, and following up on quotes;
• independently managing the commercial process;
• coordinating with suppliers, account managers, and colleagues;
• negotiating with customers and suppliers;
• contributing to our growth in the machine building sector;
• identifying commercial opportunities and improving processes.

You’ll be taking on a varied role with a great deal of freedom and responsibility. In return, we offer excellent benefits

• A salary between €3,400 and €4,800 gross per month on a full-time basis, depending on your knowledge and experience;
• bonus scheme;
• full-time (38.75 hours) employment with the prospect of a permanent position;
• 24 vacation days;
• pension plan with employer contribution;
• travel allowance;

• working with products from top-brand manufacturers;
• a close-knit team of dedicated and motivated colleagues;
• a flat and informal organizational structure;
• a catered lunch served daily in our company cafeteria.

We consider the following to be important

You don’t have to be perfect in every area, because for this role we’re looking for someone with a solid foundation and the right attitude. However, we do consider it important that you

• have at least 3 years of relevant work experience in a technical sales role;
• have a technical college degree, preferably in mechanical engineering or a related field;
• have experience with ERP and CRM systems;
• enjoy working in a technical sales role;
• are independent, proactive, and skilled at providing advice;

• can also communicate effectively in English.

A Plus

These points are not strict requirements, but they will help you succeed more quickly:

• Experience with conveyors;
• Experience with timing belt drives;
• Experience in mechanical engineering at a supplier or manufacturer.

You’ll be a great fit at Caldic Techniek if you’re energized by both technology and customer interaction. You enjoy contributing substantive ideas. You know how to distinguish between the essentials and the non-essentials, allowing you to identify opportunities that contribute to our growth. You thrive in an environment that offers a high degree of independence.

We’re not looking for a quick dealmaker or a hardcore techie. We’re looking for someone who excels at that very combination: technical enough to understand what the customer needs, and business-minded enough to find a good solution for it.

Caldic Techniek is a specialized technical organization where customer focus, expertise, and collaboration are central to everything we do. We work with strong brands, think in terms of solutions, and build long-term relationships with our customers.

You’ll be joining a team where people know, help, and appreciate one another. The atmosphere is informal, communication lines are short, and there’s plenty of room to take initiative and assume responsibility.
