Vakansiya haqqında
Industrial B2B & Key Accounts
Location - Baku, Azerbaijan
Type - Full-time | Client-facing
Sector - Oil & Gas | Energy | Industrial
Reporting - Managing Director / Deputy Director
Role purpose
- Build
and grow profitable industrial accounts for Mantra by creating qualified
RFQs, expanding buyer relationships, converting opportunities into orders
and developing repeat business. This is a hands-on industrial B2B role -
not a generic tele-sales, marketing or lead-passing position.
Job responsibilities
- Own a
portfolio of target and key industrial accounts; map buyers, technical
stakeholders and decision-makers.
- Generate
qualified RFQs and new opportunities through meetings, visits,
reactivation, referrals and proactive account development.
- Grow
existing customers through buyer penetration, cross-selling, category
expansion and repeat-order opportunities.
- Follow
each meaningful opportunity from enquiry through quotation, clarification,
negotiation and PO / verified loss - do not stop at lead generation.
- Work
closely with Procurement and Operations to prioritise opportunities, close
client clarifications and maintain quotation momentum.
- Identify
tenders, projects, shutdowns, maintenance demand, vendor-registration
opportunities and market intelligence relevant to Mantra.
- Maintain
disciplined account notes, pipeline, next actions and follow-up dates in
Mantra systems; keep information factual and current.
- Represent
Mantra professionally in client meetings and help strengthen long-term
commercial relationships after order and delivery.
Candidate profile
- 3+
years of proven B2B business development, technical sales or key-account
experience; stronger experience is preferred.
- Relevant
exposure to oil & gas, energy, industrial, marine, EPC, MRO,
engineering products, equipment or technical services.
- Demonstrated
ability to originate opportunities and open/expand accounts - not only
manage inbound enquiries.
- Commercially
persistent: comfortable following quotations, negotiating, recovering
dormant buyers and asking directly for the next opportunity.
- Engineering/technical
background is preferred; strong industrial sales experience can substitute
for degree specialisation.
- Strong
professional English and Azerbaijani communication; Russian is a strong
advantage for local industrial interaction.
- Comfortable
with targets, KPI-linked variable pay, structured follow-up, Google
Workspace/Excel and transparent performance measurement.
- High
integrity, ownership, urgency and judgement; able to work
cross-functionally with Procurement, Operations and Management.

The Person We Want
- A
commercially aggressive but professional account-builder who creates
movement, follows through, and is motivated by winning quality business.
Pure retail/FMCG, call-centre, social-media marketing or passive
sales-coordination profiles are unlikely to fit this role.
Package & Selection
- Competitive
fixed salary + KPI-linked variable pay, based on experience and fit.
- Shortlisted
candidates may be asked to complete a practical account-development / RFQ
scenario before final selection.
