At Manheim Industrial, we're growing, and we're looking for driven, commercially minded sales professionals who love being in the market, building relationships and winning new business.

Success in this role will be measured through the achievement of personal sales targets, winning new customers, developing strategic customer relationships and maintaining a strong pipeline of opportunities across your territory.
