About Thales

Thales works in three markets, defence, aerospace and space, and cyber and digital, and its sales hiring covers the last too: its sales openings sell Imperva data and application security, eSIM and IoT connectivity to mobile operators and device makers, identity and biometrics, border control, software licensing and monetization, or sovereign cloud through S3NS (its venture with Google Cloud in France) and a new German trusted cloud unit. Those seats look like software sales anywhere: regional sales managers and an enterprise sales director carrying a territory, account managers on named government and enterprise accounts, sales engineers who run demos, proofs of concept and tender answers, and technical account managers who keep enterprise customers renewing. The defence and aerospace seats are longer-cycle: key account managers for the British Army and MOD and for aerospace customers in Singapore, a sales manager for optronics and missile electronics in Glasgow, and capture, pre-sales and solution architect leads building bids for land systems, naval communications, sonar services, air traffic management and training and simulation, with the UK ones open only to UK nationals who can hold SC clearance. Roles sit in France (including S3NS in Paris), Germany, Singapore, the UK and the US, the US seats all in Texas: a regional IoT sales manager and a telecom and IoT seller in Austin and a new-logo major account manager for software monetization. Some are internal IT architects, a radio repair technician or lab internships rather than selling jobs.

If one of these employers pays a referral fee, it comes from them when you apply here, and your offer stays exactly the same.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
