• Drive personal and professional development of sales team, leading a field sales force of seven across Germany, Greece, Singapore and Japan as well as one Revenue Operations Working Student.
• Work closely with Marketing to develop and execute targeted campaigns and events as well as with Customer Service to secure customer retention and enhance customer experience
  

What You Bring

• Proven experience leading and scaling commercial teams in an international B2B SaaS or tech-driven startup or scale-up.
• Strategic and analytical mindset — able to connect insight, structure, and execution to drive outcomes.
• Previous experience and motivation to build sales processes, implement tools, and lead teams spanning different solutions and / or regions.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, combining clarity, confidence, and empathy.
• Fluent English and a global mindset
  

How You Work

• You get things done. Hands-on, fast, and focused on impact.
• You thrive in change and see structure as something you create, not wait for.
• You combine strategic thinking and intellectual sharpness with openness, empathy, and curiosity.
• You balance results with relationships, knowing one sustains the other.
