Regional Sales Manager (Chile)

BA Global Talent is seeking a remote Regional Sales Manager based in Chile for a global manufacturer of dimensional measuring instruments and industrial quality-control equipment. The ideal candidate will have hands-on commercial experience selling products such as coordinate measuring machines, vision measuring systems, surface roughness and contour measuring equipment, roundness testers, articulated measuring arms, or related dimensional inspection solutions. Candidates from the bearing industry may also be considered.

Our client is a global supplier of measuring instruments and metrology solutions, with an international distribution network serving customers in more than 75 countries. The company focuses on quality, innovation, service, and value and continues to expand its global market presence.

Responsibilities:

• Commercialize dimensional measuring instruments and quality-control solutions across the assigned South American markets.

• Support distributors and customers with product selection, demonstrations, applications, and commercial positioning.

• Train distributor sales teams on CMMs, vision systems, surface and form measurement equipment, articulated arms, and other relevant products.

• Identify manufacturers, laboratories, quality-control departments, machining companies, automotive suppliers, and other customers that use dimensional inspection equipment.

• Evaluate distributors based on their technical capabilities, customer relationships, market coverage, sales performance, and ability to support precision-measurement products.

• Develop and implement marketing and sales strategies designed to increase brand visibility and market share across the assigned South American markets.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with existing distributors and customers.

• Plan, organize, and participate in industry exhibitions, trade shows, and other events to promote the company’s products.

• Develop and manage advertising campaigns across relevant media channels in alignment with company marketing objectives.

• Monitor the performance of advertising and promotional activities and adjust strategies when necessary.

• Travel extensively throughout South America and internationally as required.

Qualifications:

• 10+ years of sales experience in dimensional metrology, precision measurement, or industrial quality-control equipment. Relevant products may include CMMs, vision measuring machines, roughness and contour gauges, roundness testers, articulated measuring arms, dimensional hand tools, or comparable inspection systems.

  • Candidates without dimensional-metrology experience may be considered if they have strong commercial and channel-management experience in the bearing industry.

  • Experience limited to process instrumentation—such as pressure, flow, temperature, environmental monitoring, industrial automation, or telecommunications measurement—will not independently meet the technical requirement unless accompanied by relevant dimensional-metrology or bearing-industry experience.

• Demonstrated experience in sales, distributor development, channel management, or business development within the industry.

• Proven ability to develop and maintain strong relationships with distributors and customers.

• Experience supporting sales through exhibitions, customer visits, marketing initiatives, and distributor training.

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Measurement, Metrology, or a related field.

• Fluent in Spanish and English, with strong verbal and written communication skills.

• Ability to communicate effectively in English with an international client team on a daily basis.

• Ability and willingness to travel frequently, both domestically and internationally (the role will cover the South American region, excluding Brazil).

• Strong relationship-building, communication, negotiation, and organizational skills.

• Self-motivated and capable of working independently in a remote environment.

• Must currently be based in Chile.

Nice to have:

• Previous experience with dimensional-metrology brands such as Renishaw, TESA, Hexagon, Mitutoyo, Mahr.

• Existing relationships with distributors, customers, or industry stakeholders within the South American measurement and metrology market.

• Previous experience managing sales or distributor networks across multiple South American countries.

• Experience selling bearings or related solutions through industrial distributors.

• Familiarity with product demonstrations, technical training, calibration, inspection applications, and quality-control processes.

Benefits:

• Base Salary: Paid in local currency through the EOR provider.
