Sales Engineer - Separation Technology

We are looking for a Sales Engineer – Separation Technology who can combine technical understanding with commercial thinking and help customers across Poland find the right solution for their processes.

What You Will Do:

As a Sales Engineer – Separation Technology, you will take ownership of developing sales and customer relationships across Poland:

• Grow the Business: Develop new opportunities across Food, Beverage, Dairy, and Biopharma while strengthening relationships and identifying further potential within existing accounts.
• Turn Process Challenges into Technical Solutions: Understand how customers operate, identify where their processes can be improved, and recommend Alfa Laval separation equipment and systems that address those needs.
• Work Where the Challenges Are: Spend time at customer sites, discussing processes with technical and operational teams, assessing requirements, and showing how proposed solutions can improve performance, efficiency, or operating costs.
• Own the Commercial Process: Manage opportunities from the first technical discussion through solution development, proposal, negotiation, and closing. Build technical and commercial offers that are clear, relevant, and backed by a solid business case.
• Bring the Right Expertise Together: Work closely with application engineers, product managers, and service team to develop solutions that consider not only the equipment itself, but also its integration, operation, and long-term performance.
• Represent Alfa Laval in the Market: Build relationships within the industry and present our separation technologies at trade shows, technical seminars, customer meetings, and industry events.

Who You Are:

You are comfortable moving between technical discussions and commercial conversations. You are curious enough to understand a customer's process in detail and commercially minded enough to turn that understanding into a solution that makes sense for both the customer and the business.

You bring:

• Technical Background: A degree in Chemical, Process, Mechanical, Biotechnology, Food Technology Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent relevant industry experience.
• Industry Experience: At least 2 years of experience in technical sales, application engineering, business development, or process engineering, ideally within Food, Dairy, Biopharma, or other process industries.
• Understanding of Process Equipment: Experience with industrial process equipment is highly valued. Knowledge of separation technologies such as centrifuges, decanters, or filtration systems would be a strong advantage.
• Comfort Working in the Field: This is a customer-facing role with regular travel across Poland, typically 3–4 days per week. You should enjoy being on-site, meeting customers, understanding their operations, and developing opportunities face-to-face.
• Key Qualifications: A valid Category B driving licence and professional fluency in both Polish and English.
