Default 2 Position to Choose from... Both Well known but totall different field..Pls help me

Hi guys,

Was thinking of applying 2 positions but not sure which one is good. And career path will totally change if i choose either one.

Currently doing PM at some Public sector with about 1.5mths of experience, would like to switch to pte sector for a change. earning about 3.7k

I chanced upon this 2 positions:

1) Technical Sales Engineer-Herrenknecht (deal with TBM) tapping into Chinese market. world leading German manufacturer of Tunnel Boring Machines and have the reputation as technology leader. They are experiencing strong growth in Asia region

JD:
Candidate must possess at least a Bachelor's Degree in Civil / Mechanical Engineering.
Understanding of the Tunneling sector would be an advantage.
-Preparation of technical and commercial offers on the basis of project specifications and/or customer specifications.
-Participating in technical and commercial negotiations.
-Determining technical design of machines and liaising with headquarters in Germany.
-Providing technical sales support for Asia.
-Non commission based, no need hit sales target and need to converse in mandarin
- No need require own transport too. Might travel to China for coordination
- based on intel, i will get a pay cut of about 150 if join them...

2) Project Engineer- Natsteel Holdings (deal with steel, i bet everyone noes this coy)

JD:
-based on intel, i think can match my pay i think...
• Build customer relationship & provide after-sales customer service
• Provide technical support to our customers on our range of products and services.
• Monitor site progress of customers’ construction projects and provide forecasts of customers’ requirements.
• Work closely with planning department to coordinate the efforts in meeting customer requirements to enhance customers’ satisfaction and engagement
Mainly:
To handle multiple sites or projects and make sure Natsteel products reach the site on time, proper planning on the location of the products to be, logistics planning, transportation, forecasting and to know construction schedule at the tips of your hand. Engage with customers.


Most of the time visiting sites, so -Need to buy car to travel to sites, transport allowance 600 and 520 Fuel Card.
Is this job consider siong? I tot Project Engineer for Natsteel is not Project Engineer for the whole site. Thought Project Engineer quite stressful but izzit value added for own portfolio? This role is more concerning delivering Natsteel products, ensuring things running smoothly. Ultimately the whole site will be run by project manager of the Contractor right?



Sorry long message...but can help??
