About the job
As an expert in maritime technology, you will join the Sales Support team in Two-Stroke Promotion & Customers Support.

Your new team assists our promotion managers with support on more complex technical solutions.

Your main focus will be to:

• Understand our customers’ needs and wishes and advise on the best products and solutions
• Provide the design and R&D team with suggestions and feedback on our customers’ needs
• Assist and train colleagues across our worldwide organisation with technical and commercial information about our products and their optimal configuration and application
• Carry out customer seminars, events and meetings, primarily in Copenhagen or other Danish cities
• Collect and provide technical content for our marketing department – including helping them understand our technology

Qualifications
As one of our foremost technical experts and advisors, you are able to explain complex technology clearly to different colleagues and customers. Moreover, you can quickly comprehend our business at both a technical and commercial level. Finally, you:

• Hold a degree in naval architecture, mechanical engineering, marine engineering or similar
• Have 5+ years’ experience in the marine industry
• Have relevant experience as e.g. a design engineer in a maritime design organisation, a new building manager, a shipbuilding consultant or a technical manager
