About Us

transact.digital is a fast-growing AI company headquartered in Frankfurt, with offices in Berlin, Leipzig, and Plovdiv. We build an AI-powered company intelligence platform and agentic AI solutions that help corporate finance, M&A, private equity, advisory and corporate teams find, analyze and act on the right companies faster. Our platform analyzes more than a billion data points across millions of private companies, so clients can source acquisition targets, map markets, and identify buyers in minutes instead of weeks. Our AI agents understand each client's investment thesis and carry out the complex research behind it, surfacing opportunities that others never see.

With deep roots in software engineering, data, and investment banking, our founding team combines strong domain expertise with state-of-the-art technology. You will work alongside experienced professionals in an ambitious, friendly, and supportive environment that encourages both personal and professional growth, and you will help shape the future of company intelligence.

Role Overview

We are looking for a driven, mid-senior Account Executive to grow our client base across the DACH region. You will own the full B2B sales cycle for transact.digital's company intelligence and AI-agent SaaS platform, from prospecting and consultative discovery to demos, negotiation, and close. You will sell to corporate finance, M&A, private equity, advisory, and corporate clients.

This is a hands-on, quota-carrying role for someone who enjoys building relationships with senior decision-makers and translating a sophisticated product into clear business value.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the full B2B sales cycle, from prospecting to close, for our company intelligence and AI-agent SaaS platform
• Identify and engage decision-makers at M&A advisories, private equity and family offices, banks, consultancies, and corporates across the DACH region

• Build and manage a healthy pipeline, forecast accurately, and consistently meet or exceed quarterly targets
• Negotiate commercial terms and close new-logo business, while expanding existing accounts through upselling and cross-selling
• Work closely with Marketing and Product to sharpen positioning and feed market insights back into the roadmap
• Keep the CRM accurate and pipeline forecasts up to date
• Represent transact.digital at industry events and stay on top of trends in corporate finance, company intelligence, and AI

Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum 3 years of B2B software or SaaS sales experience with a proven track record of meeting or exceeding quota
• Domain (strongly preferred): Experience selling company intelligence, market or financial data, or information solutions (for example company databases, deal-sourcing or research tools) into corporate finance, PE, or advisory audiences
• Sales skills: Consultative and solution-selling ability, and comfort with complex, multi-stakeholder B2B sales cycles
• Languages: Native or fluent German (C1 or higher) and strong English, as our clients are primarily German-speaking
• Tools: CRM proficiency (for example HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar)
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Business, Economics, Marketing, or comparable practical experience
• Nice to have: Familiarity with a structured sales methodology (MEDDIC, SPIN, or Challenger)

Soft Skills

• Excellent communication and presentation skills
• Structured, organized, and able to manage multiple opportunities at once
• A proactive, hands-on approach and a strong interest in AI and technology

Location

This is an on-site position at our Leipzig office in Germany. As the role requires regular on-site presence and we are not able to offer relocation support, we are primarily looking for candidates who already live in or around Leipzig. Applications from candidates who can work on-site in Leipzig from the start are especially welcome.

Why Join Us

• Meaningful impact working on cutting-edge AI and company intelligence at a fast-growing company
• 30 days of paid vacation
