About 3M
3M organizes its sellers by business group and division (Safety and Industrial, Transportation and Electronics, Consumer), and most of its 108 sales postings name the division they sell for, from abrasives and electrical markets to automotive aftermarket and semiconductor materials. India is the largest single market with 38 openings, 19 of them area sales managers plus six key account managers, who work through distributors, stockists and channel partners in Bengaluru, Mumbai, Chennai, Gurugram, Kolkata and Pune on everything from reflective tape for vehicles and national highways to dental products and kitchen cleaning tools in general trade. At least 21 are in the US: remote field territories for electrical products in California and Texas, abrasives in southern Indiana, collision repair in Seattle and power utilities across five Midwest states, a global semiconductor key account manager in Boise, an emissions sales lead in Michigan, business development for civil aviation, aerospace electronics and the Department of Energy, and sales operations and incentive plan leaders at the Maplewood, Minnesota headquarters. Each business group also lists summer 2027 undergraduate sales internships. The rest come one or two at a time from Southeast Asia, China, Japan, Mexico, Costa Rica, Canada and Europe, among them inside sales in Bracknell, England, a Belgian sales engineer hired to open new adhesive accounts by cold prospecting, and a sales productivity team in Taguig, Philippines that handles reps' CRM, pricing and order questions.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
