Job Description
Technical Key Account Manager
Høglund builds advanced automation and control systems for the maritime industry — reliable, user-friendly, and built to last the full life of a vessel. We combine durable off-the-shelf components with global service and digital tools such as Høglund Live Data and automated IMO/DCS reporting, so crews can troubleshoot fast, cut downtime, and stay compliant.
As Technical Key Account Manager you are the technical owner of the customer relationship after we have delivered a system — the person who understands how their automation works and stays with it for the full lifecycle. You spot where a system needs attention, an upgrade, or added support, and you make sure the customer always has someone at Høglund who knows their vessels.
Main Responsibilities
- Customer ownership: Own a portfolio of key customers as their main technical contact, with structured lifecycle follow-up alongside the service organization.
- Agreements & contracts: Own and follow up digital service agreements, including Høglund Connect and other lifecycle-based subscription services.
- Technical upgrades: Use your insight into each customer's systems to identify upgrades, 5-year service activities and relevant digital solutions.
- Commercial input: Give Sales accurate technical input so quotations reflect the real needs of the systems.
- Internal coordination: Ensure effective coordination across Service, Engineering, and Operations to deliver consistent and high-quality customer support.
- CRM & reporting: Maintain accurate CRM records and monitor customer satisfaction continuously.
Requirements
- You have a solid technical background, ideally from the marine industry, with hands-on understanding of marine automation functions.
- You enjoy working with customers and building long-term technical trust.
- You are a clear communicator, comfortable interacting with stakeholders from the engine room to the management office.
- You are structured and proactive in your follow-up and task management.
- You are comfortable working across Engineering, Service, and Sales departments in a global business.
- You are fluent in both English and Norwegian.
