Job description

We are TWTG. And since 2012 we have been engineering and producing sensors. Wireless sensors for the oil and gas industry. Sensors to make sites safer and smarter. Sensors designed for high volume and international deployments.

With a group of highly motivated people we work every day to grow a little bit bigger. We do this from our HQ in Rotterdam where engineers sit next to business developers during joint lunches.

We don’t believe there are many companies out there that can do what we do and we want to do more of it - we have the customers to back up our claims. 

Our ambition is to scale and be dominant on a global level. 

For this we need to find the specialists that can support and bring their own perspective to our ambition. If that’s you, we’d like to hear from you. 

The Job: 

We are looking for an engaged and involved business development expert, who has a proven track record in international sales. The sales numbers alone are not the only thing that counts, it is the finesse in searching out new business opportunities, writing winning proposals, and cultivating customer relationships, which make the difference.

  • 25 holidays and 5 assigned days the office is closed;

  • Every month an additional day off (paid leave);

You: 

Above all we are seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented individual, who can hit the ground running and is a good communicator to pick up the nitty gritty fast and easy.

Fitting in with the rest of the team is important, as without each other we cannot be successful and this is a key aspect of working with us.

  • Can wrap technically complex tasks into easily understandable explanations;
  • Are adept at problem solving, even though you’ve not encountered some before;
  • Have a knack for understanding the challenges that our customers are facing;
