Jobbeschreibung

Growth trajectory

This is a four-month part-time role with clear continuation intent: if it is a mutual fit, we grow you into a full-time Account Executive owning your own book of business. You will not be cold calling all day, you will be running real product demos with real prospects from week one (after ramp).

At Rankscale, we are building software to help thousands of brands (such as Bosch, Iberdrola, …) monitor and improve their visibility in AI search engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity.

Inbound requests and demos can be a bottleneck for a growing company. Our founders cannot run every call themselves. We need two sharp German-native students to take ownership of our lower-tier demo pipeline. Qualifying SMB and mid-market prospects, running the demo, handling objections and closing or escalating cleanly.

This is not a setter role. You are on camera, in the call, representing Rankscale to prospects that are evaluating AI Visibility tools.

We hire based on talent and drive, regardless of background.

Reporting line

Reports to: Mathias Ptacek, CEO. Works with CEO and sales team.
