Jobbeschreibung

Overview

At Hästens, we strive for a world where people sleep well – one that’s more joyful, peaceful and loving. Every day since 1852, we continue to hone our world-class craft in our factory in Köping, Sweden.

Sleep may be today’s ultimate modern luxury. But it’s more than that; it’s a biological necessity and the foundation of our entire wellbeing. We want people to sleep well so that they can create the future they dream of upon waking. That’s why our master craftsmen consider and handcraft every detail of our bespoke designs using only the finest natural materials.

We are proud to be a world-class international brand, operating in more than 40 countries with over 300 partners in Europe, Asia, America and Africa – and still growing.

Business Developer - Germany and Austria

Do you thrive on competition, bold targets, and building something bigger than yourself?

Are you a born deal-maker who knows how to turn strategy into execution and execution into results?

We are looking for a business leader with entrepreneurial DNA– a builder, a driver, and challenger with a luxury retail background to join our journey for a world where people sleep well.

At Hästens, we don’t just want growth. We want transformation. We want someone who can set the bar higher than anyone thought possible – and then deliver.

This is your chance to lead with autonomy, shape your market with our partners, and achieve results that make a measurable mark on a global stage.

Responsibilities

• Build, inspire, and challenge partners to reach new levels of performance.
• Own your market– lead Hästens’ growth with the mindset of an entrepreneur, not an employee.
• Outperform other markets– open doors where others can’t and close deals others only dream of.
• Drive business action plans that don’t just increase sales – they redefine what success looks like.
• Represent a global luxury brand and make it even stronger through your vision and execution.
• Travel, negotiate, influence, and lead at the highest level – across Germany and Austria, and occasional trips to Sweden and other destinations globally.

Requirements

• You have founded, scaled, or led businesses before – you know what ownership feels like.
• Strong commercial mindset with a focus on creating mutual growth opportunities with partners.
• You have a track record of winning– hitting ambitious goals and exceeding expectations.
• Proven success in luxury sales – you’ve consistently delivered exceptional results in premium retail environments.
• You are strategic, fearless, and competitive– you play to win and inspire others to do the same.
• Sales excellence: you can move mountains if that’s what’s needed.
• You know how to analyze, plan, and execute – and you never shy away from accountability.
• Fluent in German and English, with the flexibility to travel 70–80%.
• Valid EU driver’s license.

Opportunities

• A global platform where your results are visible and rewarded.
• The freedom and responsibility to act like an entrepreneur inside a fast-growing international brand.
• The chance to compete and win at the highest level in luxury retail.
• A culture that recognizes performance, ambition, and leadership.
