<span><span color="#e1000f">About this Position
At Henkel, you’ll be part of an organization shaping the future through innovation, sustainability, and collaboration. Within our Adhesive Technologies business unit, the Infrastructure Protection & Repair (IPR) team delivers engineered solutions that protect critical assets across downstream, industrial, and energy markets.
This role supports Henkel’s Downstream IPR portfolio, including Stopaq, CSNRI Composites, Mascoat, Highland, and U.S. Coatings. The position is highly technical and field‑focused, responsible for driving specification‑based sales through education, demonstration, and value‑based selling to contractors, distributors, and asset owners.

- Gather market intelligence on competitors, applications, and customer needs

Personal Attributes
- Field‑oriented, self‑motivated, and comfortable working independently
- Curious, coachable, and comfortable being challenged technically
- Strong communicator with the ability to influence without authority
- Organized and disciplined in managing long, complex sales cycles
