District Sales Manager, Kraus & Naimer Oy

District Sales Manager, Finland

Kraus & Naimer is a global manufacturer of electrical switching devices with a history dating back to 1907. Today, the company employs approximately 900 people worldwide and serves customers through an extensive international sales network. Known for its high-quality products, technical expertise and long-standing customer relationships, Kraus & Naimer has established a strong position in industrial switching solutions across a wide range of industries.

We are now looking for a District Sales Manager to join our Finnish organization.

This is an excellent opportunity to become part of a stable international company where you will have the freedom to manage your own customer portfolio, develop long-term customer relationships and contribute to the continued growth of the business in Finland. While you will work independently in the field, you will also be supported by a close-knit Nordic organization where colleagues actively share knowledge, support one another and work together towards common goals.

Your role

As District Sales Manager, you will be responsible for developing sales and customer relationships across Finland.

You will work closely with electrical wholesalers, industrial customers, OEMs, machine builders, panel builders and other key accounts. The role combines account management, technical sales and business development. While many customer relationships are already well established, you will also identify new opportunities and strengthen Kraus & Naimer's market position in Finland.

A significant part of your work will take place in the field. You will spend much of your time visiting customers, developing relationships and supporting business growth across Finland, particularly in Southern and Eastern Finland. Success in this role comes from being close to customers, understanding their needs and maintaining a strong presence in your territory.

Your responsibilities include:

Developing existing customer relationships and identifying new business opportunities

Supporting and developing cooperation with electrical wholesalers and distribution partners

Visiting customers and acting as a trusted commercial partner

Promoting Kraus & Naimer's product portfolio and solutions

Participating in customer meetings, trade fairs and industry events

Working closely with colleagues across the Nordic organization

The position involves regular travel within Finland. The company office is located in Vantaa.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for a proactive and customer-oriented person who enjoys building long-term relationships and working independently.

To succeed in this role, you should have:

Experience in sales, account management or customer-facing business roles

A genuine interest in technology and industrial products

Good communication and relationship-building skills

A proactive and self-driven way of working

Fluent Finnish and good English language skills

A valid driver's licence

In addition, the following will be considered an advantage:

Experience from the electrical industry or industrial business environment

Hands-on technical experience gained through work, education or personal interest

Understanding of electrical products, industrial applications or technical solutions

Experience working with wholesalers, distributors, OEMs or industrial customers

Existing networks within relevant customer segments

You do not need to be an electrical engineer or a deep technical specialist to succeed in this role. What matters most is your ability to build customer relationships, understand customer needs and learn enough about the products and applications to create value for your customers.

What we offer

We offer a versatile and independent sales role in a company with a strong international reputation and more than a century of industry experience. You will join an organization known for long-term thinking, high-quality products and strong customer relationships. At Kraus & Naimer, you will have the opportunity to take ownership of your territory, work closely with customers across Finland and become part of a supportive Nordic team where expertise is shared openly and success is achieved together. We also offer modern tools for flexible work and the stability of a well-established international company. Here is a short presentation film about Kraus & Naimer: https://youtu.be/jG5pyGEgGFI
