Sales Engineer | Water & Process Solutions

About

"Engineering for a Better World" – Starting Right Here in SA.

The Reality: South Africa’s industrial and municipal sectors are at a crossroads. From the aging infrastructure of our municipalities to the complex environmental mandates facing our mines, the need for sustainable, efficient water and waste management has never been more urgent.

The Opportunity: Our client is a global engineering powerhouse, but their impact is local. They are looking for a commercially-driven Sales Engineer who doesn't just want to sell "kit," but wants to solve the real-world problems that keep plant managers and engineers awake at night.

If you are a Chemical or Mechanical Engineer who is as comfortable in a boardroom as you are on a mine site in the North West or a treatment plant in Gauteng, this is the role for you.

What you’ll actually be doing:

This is a "hunter" role with a technical heart. You will be the bridge between world-class technology and South African industrial needs.

• Solving the Puzzle: You’ll walk onto sites, analyze complex processes, and identify where inefficiencies are costing the client money or risking their compliance.
• The "Heavy Lifting": You will specialize in Solid-Liquid Separation, specifically positioning high-end Decanter Centrifuges for wastewater (ETP), sludge handling, and mineral processing.
• Value over Price: You won’t be a "price-list" taker. You’ll be building ROI-based proposals that prove how engineered solutions save water, energy, and long-term costs.
• Navigating the Landscape: From private industrial hubs to municipal tenders, you’ll use your network to open doors and close high-value capital projects.

Desired Experience & Qualification

Who you are:

• The Pedigree: You hold a B.Eng or Diploma (Chemical / Mechanical / Environmental). You understand the science behind the solution.
• The Track Record: You’ve spent years in the South African industrial or mining sectors. You know how to navigate long sales cycles and high-stakes negotiations.
• The Mindset: You are a "Solution Hunter." You enjoy the technical deep dive, but you are motivated by hitting targets and securing the handshake.
• The Local Edge: You understand SA environmental regulations and have a genuine passion for the "Green Transition" of our local industries.
