We're looking for an International Key Account Manager - Sports Fields to join our Business Horticulture Team in Eindhoven.


Working for Signify means being creative, being adaptive and being a team player. Our culture of continuous learning and commitment to diversity and inclusion creates an environment that allows you to build your skills and career. Together, we're transforming our industry.

As the world leader in lighting, we're constantly ahead of the curve. That also means for general Stadium lighting and since several years also in the emerging market of Sports fields.

Through our leadership in connected lighting and the Internet of Things, we're breaking new grounds in data analytics, AI, and smart homes, offices, cities and more!

Signify is one of the few companies in the world to achieve carbon neutrality and our next sustainability goals are even bolder: doubling our positive impact on the environment and society by 2025.

As an International Key Account Manager, you'll be responsible for building and fostering relationships with selected key accounts (Soccer-, Football-, Cricket stadiums, golf courses) to enable perfect grass pitches for the matches to play.

Your role is developing and driving the global business in sports field lighting with the grass segment team. You will talk with directors, technical staff and greenkeepers to retrieve their needs or any issue they have with their grass pitch. Your role is to turn this into a successful solution, based on LED technology, with which the stadium eventually will have that perfect grass pitch for every match to play.

Next to that you'll develop this emerging market further and create the awareness of the latest full controlled automated grass grow systems that includes, next to LED, also heat and airflows controlled by sensor technology.

We as Signify want to bring solutions to the market that help the customer in reducing his carbon footprint and improving their products. The opportunity of "LED-ification" in sport stadiums is big since the sector realizes a change must be made soon, and we as Signify are successful in bringing the right solution!

You will be working together in a team with among others plant specialists and technical specialists. This team will make sure that the requests of the customers will be in line with the solution proposed.

Together with the plant specialist and application/system engineers you can create the best proposal for your account.

We're on the lookout for forward-thinking innovators with a passion for sustainability. If you match this description, get in touch!
