Bring your customer-first mindset and digital commerce savvy to a role that sits at the heart of Agilent’s consumables business.

• Own day‑to‑day e‑commerce operations for B2B connections and our online store - track Agilent online store requests, resolve online shop issues, and administer the electronic catalogue.
• Drive delivery follow‑up (scheduled ship dates, partial shipments to prevent delays, backorders, and priority lists) and keep customers proactively informed.
• Handle backorder communications - explain status, set expectations, and de‑escalate when timelines shift.
• Clear orders for booking - help customers find the correct catalogue numbers and resolve price discrepancies before orders enter the system.
• Meet sales objectives by driving inbound activities. Proactively collaborate with field and cross Agilent teams to drive a differentiated customer experience.
• Prepare and manage quotations across defined consumables lines—accurate, timely, and aligned to pricing and contract terms.

Qualifications

• Science Degree in Biochemistry, Cell Analysis, Genetics, Molecular Biology or equivalent
• minimum 2-3 years Sales experience
• Experience in customer operations/order management within a consumables business.
• Working knowledge of pricing (implementation, change control, and negotiation basics, impact analysis).
• Familiarity with B2B e‑procurement and online store workflows; comfort collaborating with IT/ops to resolve electronic catalogue or checkout issues.
• Strong attention to detail, ownership mindset, and the ability to prioritize across multiple customer requests.
• Excellent Verbal and Written Communication Skills as well as Interpersonal and Presentation Skills in German and English , additional European languages a plus.
• Fluency with CRM/ERP tools and spreadsheets; you’re data‑literate and process‑oriented.

On a personal level, you are creative and customer focused. You are flexible and adaptable, show a real can-do demeanor and are motivated to work in a fast-paced, dynamic, international team environment. You enjoy working both autonomously and as part of a team.
