Inside Sales Engineer (Full-time – Dordrecht)
(Repair Work & Spare Parts)
Xylem continues to grow – including within our Inside Sales department! For our service and spare parts activities, we are looking for an Inside Sales Engineer who can expertly advise customers and provide accurate, timely quotations for repairs, restwork, and spare parts. At Xylem, we offer you the opportunity to develop yourself in the world of water technology.
What will you do?
A customer contacts us with the question: “Can you prepare an offer for the required parts and repair of my installation?” You immediately recognize a need for spare parts, repair proposals or restwork.
You analyze inspection reports from our Field Service Engineers, the technical condition of the product, or customer-provided information. Based on that, you create a complete, technically correct, and commercially attractive proposal. This may include part lists, wear components, repair hours, alternative components, and delivery times.
You prepare:
- Restwork quotations following service inspections
- Repair and overhaul proposals
- Quotations for spare parts
While preparing your proposals, you coordinate closely with the Service Department, Field Service, and Account Managers. You also document all customer interactions accurately in the CRM system.
In short: you combine technical insight with commercial drive to support customers quickly and professionally when their Xylem installation requires maintenance or parts.
Inside Sales Team
Our Dordrecht location has around 150 employees. The Inside Sales team consists of 15+ colleagues who jointly support the technical sales and service process. You work closely with our service department and are in daily contact with customers regarding repairs, spare parts, and restwork.
We also make time for team spirit. If you secure your first restwork order or spare parts deal, we celebrate it together — with cake, of course!
What we offer
- An independent role within an enthusiastic, knowledgeable sales and service team
- Opportunities for technical training, product courses, and growth within service or sales
- An informal and supportive work culture with focus on corporate responsibility
- Excellent employment conditions, including:
* premium-free pension
