Adhese; Oost-Vlaanderen; Sur place; EUR 90 000 - 130 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Adhese in Belgium is looking for a high-velocity enterprise sales hunter to own a market, build a pipeline from scratch and close large SaaS deals. You will run discovery, lead product demos and collaborate with Delivery to bring opportunities to closure.

You will negotiate contracts, own the post-sale growth, and expand in cross-border accounts. Excellent English is required, and some travel to prospects and Gent HQ is expected.

Qualifications

• A background in commerce media, retail, AdTech, or media buying is a serious advantage
• Experience selling complex SaaS or platform technology to international, multi-stakeholder buying teams
• Technically fluent enough to talk integrations, data flows and ad serving without over-promising
• Excellent English. Other languages are a plus
• You are a proven B2B hunter who has carried a target and hit it, repeatedly

Responsabilités

• Own a market and a target, and personally carry the number
• Prospect relentlessly, every day: mapping, outbound, network, referrals, events
• Run sharp discovery and turn it into a business case that survives the budget conversation
• Lead demos, workshops and POCs together with Product and Delivery
• Negotiate and close: pricing, RFPs, contract, signature
• Be the commercial owner after the ink dries, and grow the account
• Bring the market back inside: what you win on, what you lose on, what customers actually ask for
• You are a proven B2B hunter who has carried a target and hit it, repeatedly
• Experience selling complex SaaS or platform technology to international, multi-stakeholder buying teams

Description du poste

Find them. Win them. Own them. Sell the platform behind Europe's commerce media.

Retailers, marketplaces and media owners are all building their own advertising business right now. Most of them don't have the right technology to do it. That's where you come in.

This is a hunter's role. You own a market, you fill your own pipeline, and you close deals worth serious money to us and to the customer. Nobody hands you warm leads, and you're not farming someone else's accounts. You build it, you close it.

The challenge

Commerce media is the fastest-growing corner of AdTech, and it's wide open. But these aren't quick wins. The environment is complex: commercial, product and technical buyers in the same room, often across borders, often people who are still figuring out their own strategy. Making that complexity simple is exactly what our platform does, and your job is to prove it.

You'll need to be genuinely interesting to talk to. The kind of seller who asks better questions than the competition, walks into a room of stakeholders and leaves with all of them on side, and keeps a long deal moving when it would be easier to let it drift.

What You'll Do

• Own a market and a target, and personally carry the number
• Prospect relentlessly, every day: mapping, outbound, network, referrals, events.
• Run sharp discovery and turn it into a business case that survives the budget conversation
• Lead demos, workshops and POCs together with Product and Delivery
• Negotiate and close: pricing, RFPs, contract, signature
• Be the commercial owner after the ink dries, and grow the account
• Bring the market back inside: what you win on, what you lose on, what customers actually ask for
• You are a proven B2B hunter who has carried a target and hit it, repeatedly
• Experience selling complex SaaS or platform technology to international, multi-stakeholder buying teams
• A background in commerce media, retail, AdTech, or media buying is a serious advantage
• Technically fluent enough to talk integrations, data flows and ad serving without over-promising
• Energised by people. You build rooms full of relationships and enjoy doing it
• Resilient and self-directed. You don't need chasing, you need room
• Honest in your forecast. We'd rather hear the truth early
• Excellent English. Other languages are a plus
