Business Development Manager

We’re GemOne, a start-up global tech company within TVH. We work in the field of telematics. Tele-what-ics??! Yes, we’re fully aware that telematics isn’t something most people know a lot about. But if you’re willing to learn and you have skills to share, then you might just find out that this company, role, and industry are a perfect fit for you.

We co-create cloud-based solutions and the necessary hardware components to gather data from industrial equipment, which our customers then use to streamline their industrial fleet management.

In a nutshell, we make technology that helps companies look after their industrial machinery and business better — we enable them to work safer and more efficiently, and save time and money.

We have offices all over the world: from Belgium to the USA; and from Asia to Australia. We are growing rapidly and we’re looking for people with a can-do mindset and a team player mentality.
