With your German language skills, sales focus and confident telephone manner you could find yourself on a fast track to account management at Accelrys, a leading provider of scientific business intelligence software.

Working with the world's leading pharmaceutical, biotechnology, academic and government research organizations, Accelrys delivers scientific software solutions that change the way companies work. Our software has helped Continental Tyres refine their manufacturing processes, enabled BASF to improve the colour intensity of paint and allowed Kraft Foods to discover a new compound that will enhance their cosmetic products. You’ll work closely with our account management team to support our sales effort and gain the experience necessary to progress into an account manager.

As a key member of our European sales team you’ll help to increase our market share by prospecting, networking, qualifying leads and closing sales, mainly through telephone contact with prospective and existing customers. Your main focus will be to support our sales effort, but you’ll have the opportunity to get involved in some individual project work such as driving marketing initiatives or researching new sales channels.

To succeed you’ll need to be fluent in both German and English with the drive to meet challenging sales targets, a confident telephone manner and the ability to understand and grasp the technical nature of our products and solutions.

In return you’ll enjoy a range of benefits including:
• excellent bonus potential;
• private healthcare scheme;
• contributory pension;
• life assurance;
• 25 days’ holiday;
• occasional international travel opportunities;
• happy hour Fridays where you can share a beer, glass of wine or soft drink with your colleagues – on us!
