It's a high-impact role at the heart of the company's revenue engine.

• Contribute to building out sales processes and a high-performance sales culture.

• Identify and experiment with AI-assisted workflows to improve sales effectiveness.

What We're Looking For

• At least 1–2 years of closing experience in B2B software sales (5+ years for senior-level consideration).

• Experience selling into industrial or technical environments; familiarity with procurement or supply chain is a strong plus.

• Proven ability to run an end-to-end sales process and develop customer-specific strategies.

• Comfortable building business cases and using data to articulate product value.

• Hands-on experience with CRM systems (e.g., HubSpot) and tracking key sales metrics.

• Excellent written and spoken German — this is a dealbreaker requirement.

• Consultative, solution-oriented mindset with strong advisory instincts.
