Our Environment activity employs over 430 people worldwide and supports public and private operators with robust and cyber-secure remote management solutions (SOFREL, SAE...). With €123M in revenue and strong growth ambitions, we operate in more than 12 countries across Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

Job Description

  • Build, structure and manage a network of local distributors,
  • Represent LACROIX towards key stakeholders and associations (e.g. DVGW, BDEW),
  • Monitor market trends and regulations to shape our strategy,
  • Work closely with product, technical and marketing teams to tailor value propositions to the German market.

What makes this role unique : 

  • You'll operate with autonomy and impact, while embedded in our German sales team,
  • You'll leverage SAE's strong customer base and local presence,
  • You'll work with a proven product portfolio, certified and differentiated,
  • You'll benefit from a complete customer journey support: pre-sales support, training, technical, sales, after-sales,
  • You'll actively contribute to building LACROIX's Smart Water footprint in Germany.

Who you'll work with :

  • SAE Sales Director (your manager),
  • LACROIX Environment's International Sales Director (functional reporting),
  • Product & marketing teams at SOFREL and SAE,
  • Partners, municipalities, public operators.
Qualifications

What we're looking for :

Must have:

  • Strong business development background with proven track record,
  • Experience in the German water or infrastructure market,
  • Ability to build and scale a partner network,
  • Understanding of industrial/automation/IoT solutions,
  • Fluent in both German and English.

Nice to have:

  • Previous exposure to PLC/RTU or SCADA systems.
Additional Information

What we offer

  • A newly created position with full ownership,
  • A high-impact role with visibility and growth potential,
  • Access to best-in-class support teams,
  • Flexible remote work, with regular travel to customers and our French sites.
