You will act as the primary commercial relationship owner, developing long-term partnerships with senior stakeholders across business, technology and product functions.

You will ideally bring:
6+ years of B2B sales experience, ideally selling sophisticated technology solutions to enterprise customers.
A strong track record of high performance against demanding revenue targets.
Experience winning and developing relationships with large enterprise organisations.
Experience developing and executing strategic account plans across multiple business units and stakeholders.
The ability to understand technical requirements and translate complex technology into clear commercial and business outcomes.
Experience navigating long, complex and multi threaded enterprise sales cycles.

Comfort operating within a fast paced, high growth environment.
A genuine interest in technology and how innovative platforms can transform large organisations.
Fluent German and English.
What Will Set You Apart
We are particularly interested in candidates who can demonstrate:

A strong combination of new-logo acquisition and strategic account growth.
The ability to engage both commercial and technical decision makers within the same opportunity.
Experience building multi year strategies for a small number of strategically important enterprise accounts.
A consultative approach that allows you to challenge customers and advise senior executives rather than simply respond to procurement processes.
The ability to connect high level strategic thinking with disciplined operational execution.
