JBAndrews is partnered with a major, privately owned international logistics group seeking a Senior Sales Expert to grow its contract logistics business across Spain.
The company has a long-established position within complex production logistics and is now investing heavily in its expansion beyond automotive into industrial, aerospace and other manufacturing sectors.

Target customers within heavy machinery, agricultural equipment, rail, mechanical engineering, aerospace, metals and electrical/electronics
Lead the full sales cycle from prospecting and discovery through solution development, proposal, negotiation and contract award
Work with solution design, operations, IT and finance to develop competitive and operationally deliverable solutions
Remain involved through implementation and the continued development of customer relationships
Report on sales activity, pipeline, customer feedback and market trends

At least six years’ sales experience, ideally within contract logistics or complex supply-chain solutions
Proven success winning new customers and generating measurable revenue
Strong network across industrial manufacturing customers in Spain
Commercial understanding of contract logistics costing, tenders and contract negotiation
Fluent Spanish and strong English. German would be beneficial but is not essential
Comfortable travelling and operating autonomously across Spain
Automotive experience is relevant, provided the candidate is motivated to diversify into other industrial sectors
Why consider it?
Genuine new-business mandate rather than an account-management position
Opportunity to help build a strategically important vertical in Spain
Broad production logistics and value-added services capability
Established international operational platform
