What we’re looking for

• Pre-sales or lead qualification experience

• Ongoing development: certifications and dedicated sales training
• Career growth with coaches and a motivated team behind you
• An international, inclusive workplace that values diversity, equity, and inclusion

Why move from Germany to Barcelona?

• Sun, sea, and a better work-life balance. Beach after work, outdoor time year-round, and a milder winter than most of Germany.
• Lifestyle. Mediterranean food, tapas culture, and long evenings outside. Barcelona's pace is relaxed even when the career is ambitious.
• A tech and innovation hub. You'll work in the 22@ district, Barcelona's innovation quarter, surrounded by tech and digital companies.
• An international community. Barcelona draws expats from across Europe and the world, so you won't be starting from scratch socially. Many German speakers already live there.
• Close to home. Barcelona has regular flights to Germany, so family and friends are a short trip away.
• Cost of living. Day-to-day costs, rent in particular, are generally lower than in cities like Munich, Hamburg, or Frankfurt, though this varies by neighborhood.
• Culture and city life. Architecture, museums, festivals, and food markets, plus mountains and coast within reach for weekends.
• A career step abroad. Experience in an international, AI-driven sales environment is a strong addition to your CV.
