Technical Sales Engineer – Paper Machine Fabrics & Rolls (Pulp & Paper)

Territory: Quebec & Eastern Canada | Travel Required

Own a Territory. Drive Mill Performance. Build Long-Term Customer Partnerships.

If you have hands-on experience in paper mills and want to step into a more commercial, customer-facing role - this is your opportunity.

At ANDRITZ Fabrics & Rolls, we partner directly with pulp & paper mills to improve machine performance, uptime, and efficiency across the entire paper machine.

We are looking for a Technical Sales Engineer who can combine paper machine expertise + consultative sales to deliver real operational value to our customers

What You’ll Be Doing

This is not transactional sales - you’ll act as a trusted technical advisor inside the mill.

Customer-Facing Technical Sales

• Build and manage relationships with paper mills across Quebec & Eastern Canada
• Identify opportunities for:
• paper machine clothing (PMC)
• roll covers
• bowed rolls
• related services
• Lead machine audits, service visits, and optimization discussions

Field Work & Performance Optimization

• Conduct press section and machine optimization studies (including Rezolve™)
• Support shutdown inspections, troubleshooting, and performance improvement efforts
• Analyze machine performance and recommend practical, value-driven solutions

Drive Results & Growth

• Identify opportunities to improve performance and reduce operational risk
• Deliver clear reports, recommendations, and follow-up actions
• Provide visibility on:
• mill conditions
• customer needs
• competitive landscape

What We’re Looking For

Must-Haves

• Experience working in paper mills (production, maintenance, reliability, process, or technical support)
• Strong understanding of:
• paper machines
• press sections
• rolls or PMC
• Comfortable working directly in mill environments + customer-facing roles
• Ability to build relationships across all levels of a mill (operators → management)
• Self-driven and comfortable owning a regional territory

Preferred

• Experience in:
• paper machine clothing
• rolls / roll services
• press optimization
• Background in:
• technical sales, applications engineering, or field service
• Experience with:
• machine audits
• shutdown support

Why This Role Stands Out

• Own your territory - strong customer relationships and long-term accounts
• Direct impact on mill performance and efficiency
• Blend of:
• technical expertise
• field work
• commercial ownership
• Backed by a global leader in pulp & paper technology
• Strong support from engineering, service, and technical teams

Why ANDRITZ Fabrics & Rolls

• Industry leader in paper machine performance solutions
• Collaborative, technically strong team environment
• Stable territory + long-term customer base
• Competitive compensation + expenses covered
