Can you turn complex offshore wind specifications into clear, winning proposals? Looking for a role where you own the full bid cycle and see your efforts become real, steel-in-the-water projects?

-

We are looking for a Sales Engineer to translate client specifications into competitive quotations, manage bid documentation, and coordinate closely with engineering, procurement, and project management to secure new work. Your efforts will help deliver the next generation of offshore wind substations, foundations, and balance-of-plant systems.

Tasks & responsibilities:

• Develop technical and commercial proposals, cost estimates and tender schedules for offshore wind equipment and engineering packages. 
• Clarify requirements, present solutions, and follow up on RFQs to maximise order intake.
• Work with engineering and procurement to obtain pricing, optimise margins, and identify value-engineering options.
• Compile complete handover packages and lead internal kick-off meetings after the award. 
• Register opportunities, quotations and purchase orders in the business systems (e.g., SAP/Infor LN/Trimergo). 
• Request and evaluate vendor quotes for specialised offshore equipment (e.g., flow-measurement, berthing & mooring, cable accessories).
• Support commercial risk assessments and compliance with HSE, quality and export-control requirements. 
• Track offshore wind developments, pricing trends, and competitor activity to feed into sales strategy. 
• Represent the company at industry events, client offices, and fabrication yards when required. 

Gevraagd

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Industrial, or Electrical Engineering (or similar).
• 2-3 years of technical sales/proposal engineering experience in energy, maritime, or industrial equipment (offshore wind experience is a strong plus!).
• Proven ability to prepare quotations, perform cost analysis, and negotiate with clients and suppliers. 
• Familiarity with ERP/CRM platforms and solid MS Office skills; knowledge of Trimergo, Infor LN, or comparable tools is advantageous. 
• Understanding of offshore wind project phases, EPC contract structures, and relevant industry standards. 
• Excellent spoken and written English; Dutch or other languages are an asset! 
• Strong organisational skills, eye for detail, and ability to manage multiple bids in parallel. 
• Willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings, supplier audits, or trade shows.
