Mobile = in the sense that the person will be able to go and visit clients / customers at their offices. For this task, he/she must be able to have a driving licence and access to a car, I imagine.

agree Jack Dunwell : "Technico" I find often needs reducing in emphasis. I think this is really just "Travelling Salesperson" ("marketing" being summat else)

Many thanks Jack. I agree that my job title may sound a bit long-winded, but don't they all in this day and age.

travelling technical salesman

(en anglais...)
Peer comment(s):

agree Philippa Smith : I'd prefer "salesperson". And the "affaires" doesn't seem to make sense here, "business salesperson" and "technical salesperson" being contradictory - maybe it refers to a department? / Sorry it wasn't clear, I meant "travelling technical salesperson" !

salesperson sounds good too, but doesn't it exclude the "technical" aspect of the Technico-commercial who has technical skills added to the sales skills? "Affaires" looks unnecessary to me.
neutral Chris Hall : You would need "salesperson" since "salesman" is neglecting all potential applications from female applicants.

Fair precision, thank you Chris.
