Mission
To work on developing IKOS GROUP's activities, we are recruiting Business Development Engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset and a first experience in the industry (railway and/or energy sectors is an asset).
The goal of the Business Development Engineer is to enhance the presence of the company in the country and provide our customers with solutions (team of engineers) that are tailored to their needs. Working with the Country Manager, the Business Development Engineer will, therefore, be in charge of recruiting his team of skillful engineering consultants (a primary task at first) and coordinate with the clients' technical needs. Some travelling will be involved to meet up with clients, prospects and consultants.
