What you will do as a Junior Account Executive

• Fuel Pipeline Growth: Proactively build and maintain a robust sales pipeline through consistent, creative outbound strategies and by leveraging your professional network.
• Command Your Territory: Own the German market with confidence, managing the full sales cycle from engaging qualified leads (SDRs, inbound, events, partners, outbound, etc.) to confidently closing impactful deals.
• Be the Trusted Advisor: Dive deep into each client’s business landscape to uncover challenges and deliver solutions that drive real results, fostering enduring partnerships.
• Collaborate for Seamless Success: Work closely with Sales Campaign Managers, BDRs, your Team Lead, Customer Success, and Marketing to gain a deeper understanding of the market, ensure every new client experiences a smooth transition and immediate value realization, and continuously refine your sales approach.
• Elevate Client Success: Stay ahead of the curve, responding swiftly and effectively to prospect and new client needs to not only meet but exceed their expectations, turning satisfaction into enthusiasm.
• Surpass Sales Goals: Consistently achieve and strive to exceed your quarterly revenue targets by securing new business and amplifying opportunities within your newly acquired accounts.

• Proven Sales Drive: You have gained strong commercial insights through 1–2 years of hands-on experience in Sales, Business Development, or Account Management.
• Outstanding Communicator & Influencer: You know how to spark conversations, build instant rapport, and confidently engage decision makers; including C-level executives. You're outgoing, energetic, and thrive on building meaningful connections.
• Analytical Mindset & Customer Focus: You combine sharp problem solving skills with a deep curiosity to understand customer needs and turn insights into impactful solutions.
• Self-Starter with Resilience: You take initiative, stay motivated under pressure, and keep pushing forward even when facing “no.” Targets aren’t goals; they’re your baseline.
• Adaptable & Growth-Oriented: You’re positive, professional, and energized by change. You embrace feedback, love learning, and thrive in a fast-paced, ever-evolving sales environment.
• Language Proficiency: You speak German at a native level and possess fluent English skills, enabling effective communication with a diverse client base.
• Desirable (but not required):
• Educational Background & Business Acumen: A degree in Business, Communications, or a related field is advantageous; however, we also recognize relevant real-world experience that has shaped your commercial thinking and communication style.
• CRM Enthusiast: You have worked with HubSpot or a similar CRM and take pride in keeping your pipeline clean, organized, and fully up to date; it’s how you stay in control.
• Outbound Sales Experience: You have already been successful with creating your own pipeline and winning customers through creative outbound efforts and you are confident in reaching out, following up, and creating momentum.
• Curious & Market-Savvy: You are excited about how businesses grow, passionate about SaaS and remote work trends, and genuinely enthusiastic about the German market and/or the startup ecosystem.
