Full-time | Frankfurt am Main, Germany | No professional experience required | Hybrid

To strengthen our team, we’re looking for you to join us at our Frankfurt am Main location as a Sales Manager (m/f/d).

“Do you want to kickstart your career in sales and take on responsibility? Are you interested in B2B sales, enjoy interacting with people, and want to learn how successful communication and media solutions are created? Are you curious, ambitious, and eager to grow both professionally and personally? Then we look forward to getting to know you.” — Franziska Welp, Publishing Director, Textil-Medien

Here’s what it’s all about

During our 18-month trainee program, you’ll gain a thorough understanding of sales at TextilWirtschaft from the ground up. Together with experienced colleagues, you’ll develop customized communication and media solutions for companies in the fashion industry. Step by step, you’ll take on responsibility for your own tasks, projects, and eventually your first client segments:

  • You’ll gain an understanding of the entire sales process—from the initial client outreach to the development of customized communication and media solutions, all the way to a successful close.
  • You’ll support our sales team in their day-to-day operations and take on your own tasks early on.
  • You’ll accompany experienced colleagues to client meetings as well as national and international industry events, gaining insights from discussions with marketing, sales, and executive leadership.
  • You’ll work with our portfolio of print, digital, and event offerings and learn to advise clients on their B2B media planning.
  • As you gain experience, you’ll take on your own client segments and manage your first projects independently.
  • From the very beginning, you’ll learn to work in a structured manner and reliably document your sales activities in our CRM system.

What Sets You Apart

  • You have a degree in media, communication, or business studies, or comparable training.
  • You’re passionate about sales and want to launch your career in B2B sales.
  • You enjoy interacting with people and can inspire others through your communication skills.
  • You’re curious, eager to take on responsibility, and enjoy learning new things.
  • Ambition, a strong work ethic, and initiative are what set you apart.
  • You work in a structured manner, and reliability comes naturally to you.
  • You enjoy being on the go and look forward to client meetings and industry events.
  • Good English skills round out your profile.

Your Benefits

  • A structured 18-month trainee program with individualized onboarding and personal mentoring.
  • Early responsibility for your own tasks, projects, and first client segments.
  • A diverse sales role at the intersection of media, communication, and fashion.
  • A diverse portfolio of print, digital, and event offerings that you’ll use to develop customized solutions for your clients.
  • A motivated team with short decision-making paths and a culture that values initiative, collaboration, and performance.
  • Attractive benefits such as the ability to work remotely, vacation pay, a Christmas bonus, and a wide range of professional development opportunities.

We look forward to receiving your application!
