The role

At Schneider Electric, we are the leading technology partner in sustainability and efficiency for companies, communities, and individuals; our goal is for all people to be able to make the most of our energy and resources through the integration of processes, software, Big Data, and industry-leading energy technologies that allow for the integrated management of buildings, industries, and cities.

The position is part of the Services Sales team in the Barcelona area, responsible for leading the development and growth of the services business in its geographic and/or account scope, with a clear focus on generating recurring business, modernizing the installed base (retrofit) and creating value for the customer through advanced service models.

The role combines a strong commercial and negotiation capacity with solid technical knowledge in Power Services, acting as a trusted advisor to the customer to identify risks, improvement opportunities, and efficiency levers, translating them into high value-added service solutions.

What you'll do

  • The person will be responsible for defining and implementing the services commercial plan in their scope, aligning it with the company's global strategy. They will analyze the customer installed base to identify growth opportunities, prioritizing those with the highest potential for recurrence and profitability. Likewise, they play an active role in the transformation of the commercial model towards more sophisticated, digital, and value-oriented service solutions.
  • The position involves the creation and development of a solid and sustainable pipeline, identifying opportunities in all phases of the asset lifecycle, from preventive services to modernization and digitalization solutions. The person must systematically integrate the sale of services into any opportunity, ensuring a complete vision of the customer's potential.
  • The candidate will lead complex sales processes, interacting with multiple stakeholders and being able to identify both explicit and implicit customer needs. Their main objective will be to build value propositions based on business indicators (TCO), the reduction of operational risks, and the optimization of the asset lifecycle, positioning consultative services as a strategic lever for the customer.
  • A key part of the role will be the design, sale, and negotiation of maintenance contracts and advanced services, ensuring that any modernization or retrofit opportunity incorporates an associated service model. They must actively drive the growth of recurring business, increasing contract penetration in the customer base and promoting digitalized and connected service models.
  • The Senior Services Sales leads complex negotiations that combine technical, commercial, and contractual aspects, with the aim of defending the value of proposals and ensuring favorable conditions for the company. They manage competitive situations, respond to customer objections, and guarantee an adequate balance between growth, profitability, and risk management.
  • The role requires the development of solid, long-term relationships with key customers, interacting with different decision levels within organizations, from maintenance managers to operations management. The person acts as a trusted advisor, positioning themselves as a strategic partner in the management and optimization of the customer's electrical assets.
  • The Senior Services Sales will collaborate closely with internal teams such as End User, execution, and tendering, ensuring an adequate transition from the commercial phase to service delivery. Additionally, they will contribute to aligning the organization's capabilities with customer needs and will participate in continuous improvement initiatives to optimize commercial and service processes.
