Invisible, but indispensable
Our industrial carbon black is not immediately visible, yet it is found almost everywhere – in tyres that get you safely to your destination, in the smartphone you hold in your hand every day, in the paint that brings your home to life, and in batteries that supply energy. Without it, modern life would come to a standstill.
But what you can see immediately is that we invest in you. In your development, your prospects and your future. We provide you with the framework you need to grow – professionally, personally and financially. Your commitment makes a difference to us, and in return you receive more than just appreciation: you receive genuine recognition.
We are seeking a highly self-driven Sales Manager to lead and represent our carbon black business in Taiwan, operating with full ownership and autonomy in a fully remote setup.

This position offers a high degree of freedom and responsibility, ideal for a professional who combines entrepreneurial thinking with a structured, customer-focused approach aligned with Taiwan’s collaborative business culture.

Bringing our portfolio to life, you position products confidently against competitors, support market launches, and guide customers through technical, logistical, and supply chain considerations and working closely with marketing and technical colleagues when needed.
Day-to-day excellence is reflected in your responsive customer engagement, from managing inquiries and supporting sampling processes to resolving complaints, tracking industry and competitor developments, and contributing to trainings, workshops, and industry associations.
