Sales Manager - SecureLoad (m/f/d)

Einleitung

Two well-established companies in the maritime market have joined forces to form Secureload.

At Hoppe Marine, we’ve been setting global standards in maritime fluid control and vessel performance technology for over 75 years. As a proudly independent and family-owned company, we combine deep industry expertise with a commitment to innovation and precision engineering.
