Product Account Manager Automation | Belgium | Exclusive partner

Our client is an international industrial global player specializing in electric motors, drives, and automation. The organization combines in-house production, strong R&D, and customized solutions with a long-term vision, a flat hierarchy, and a clear focus on sustainability, innovation, and people. With significant growth potential, this is the right place to make a strong choice in both job content and organizational culture.

• Market leader in its field: Our partner is the undisputed number one in its industry, with a high level of specialization across multiple industrial segments. While their main focus lies on drives, around 10% of their turnover comes from control panel manufacturing. Thanks to their strong R&D reputation, they are a highly sought-after exclusive partner—an organization that truly knows what it is doing. You will play a key role within a strong, growing, and family-oriented organization, making a genuine investment in your career in every sense.

• Vertically integrated (nearly 99% in-house)
  In today’s challenging market conditions, this player stands out with a fully streamlined internal operation. Every day, approximately 80,000 motors are produced and shipped. They even manage their own packaging materials, sourced from a privately owned forest of 12,000 hectares. This level of integration enables significantly shorter lead times, allowing them to capture around 30% market share in Belgium alone within their area of expertise—driven by quality and delivery reliability. To maintain their strong sustainability focus, a new tree is planted for every tree harvested.

• Exceptional investments in R&D and innovation
  Globally, the organization operates five R&D centers, with the largest located at the headquarters, spanning an impressive one million square meters. They invest heavily in new developments, which are produced on a large scale and then customized locally according to each customer’s specific requirements.
