About Zeppelin
Zeppelin's sellers work under four brands: Zeppelin Cat (Caterpillar construction machines, drives, service and parts, as Cat's exclusive dealer in Germany since 1954), Zeppelin Rental (machines, equipment and temporary site infrastructure), Zeppelin Power Systems (engines, generator sets and standby power for industry and critical sites) and Zeppelin Systems (process plant engineering). The field seat is the territory sales manager, here one for construction machines around Illingen in Saarland who carries revenue and margin targets, works the installed base, hunts new accounts and should ideally live in the patch, while the largest deals sit with a Hamburg key account manager who owns global data center accounts for Cat Data Center Solutions alongside a technical global account team. A large inside layer backs them: a Glinde inside sales agent who phones new, lapsed and current Zeppelin Rental customers and hands qualified deals to the field, an inside sales supervisor running the order desk and logistics teams for Energy Rental across Pfungstadt, Duisburg and Hamburg, a junior inside seller near Vienna who quotes and sizes standard generator sets and follows tenders, and a Leipzig e-commerce manager who sells Cat spare parts through the webshop. Hamburg roles chase new lines, a business development manager for energy storage, microgrids and smart energy systems and a digital consultant who sells digital services into existing and new accounts. The sales-titled openings are all in Europe: in Germany, Austria and Slovakia, where sales support desks in Banská Bystrica have postings with no description.

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.
