With our strong market positions in the Nordics and parts of Europe, we see great potential in the Austrian market. We are now strengthening our team with someone who can build Plejd's presence, create long-term customer relationships, and contribute to our continued expansion.
About Plejd
Plejd is a fast-growing Swedish tech company specializing in smart lighting and home automation. We simplify the work of electricians through innovative solutions built on the latest technology. As a leading player in lighting automation and shading control in the Nordics, we are now expanding across Europe.
What sets us apart is that we have all expertise in-house—from production and automation to electronics and software—all under one roof. With development and manufacturing based in Sweden, we ensure high quality and continuous innovation.
The Role
In this B2B sales role, you will work closely with electrical wholesalers and professional electricians to make Plejd's smart solutions a natural part of their offering and daily work. The focus is on building long-term relationships, conducting product demonstrations, and supporting wholesalers and electricians in understanding and promoting Plejd's solutions.
As this is a field sales role, you will spend much of your time in the field — visiting customers, providing training, and attending trade fairs.
The position is home-based and requires frequent travel throughout Austria.
Who We Are Looking For
We are seeking an experienced B2B salesperson with a background in sales to electrical wholesalers and/or installation materials. You should have a solid understanding of electrical installations, and experience as an electrician is a clear advantage. You are a strong communicator and relationship builder who creates trust and long-term partnerships.
