Job description

Our Mission

At Circus (Xetra: CA1), headquartered in Munich, we are pioneering global developments in on-demand autonomous food production. Everything from creation to production and operation – enabled by seamlessly integrated cutting-edge robotics and transformative AI technology.

Our robots serve fresh food across every format — from full autonomous kitchens producing complete meals, to compact blend bars turning out fresh smoothies, soups and shakes in under two minutes from a single square meter. Staff-free, around the clock, wherever people need it.

Our foundation rests in the extensive developments of groundbreaking robotics driven by artificial intelligence, previously the missing link in achieving true autonomous food automation. This is the moment for a new status quo: just as autonomous driving will disrupt how we build cities, organize our days, and live our lives, so will we shift our whole reality around food.

Our Team is backing a paradigm shift in one of humanity's most important sectors with the sharpest minds in Robotics, AI, Engineering and Culinary, collaborating closely with industry-leading partners to revolutionize every aspect of the food service experience.

Join us as we forge ahead, crafting a future where the art of cooking and the science of technology converge to create a world that thinks differently about food than it has for thousands of years — a world where food means something new.

About the Role

At Circus, we're building physical AI robotics that produce food autonomously and our sales pipeline is how that technology reaches the market.

As Junior Sales Manager, you'll be the first point of contact for new prospects: opening conversations, qualifying interest, and building pipeline across sectors that haven't worked with autonomous food robotics before.

Our products connect naturally, so you'll learn to represent the full portfolio, not a single pitch. As you build track record, you'll take on more ownership and start running deals end-to-end. You don't need years of sales experience but you should already know what outbound and cold calling feel like, and be ready to sharpen that into a real skill.

Your Daily Business

• Build and own a structured outbound pipeline across our full product portfolio

• Open first conversations with prospects, qualify interest, and move opportunities forward

• Develop sector-specific outreach rather than a one-size-fits-all pitch

• Represent our full portfolio and spot cross-sell and upsell opportunities as they emerge

• Keep your funnel and outreach activity accurately tracked and current

• Partner with our Leadership Team to prioritize target accounts and take on greater ownership over time

Base Qualifications

• First hands-on exposure to sales, outbound, or cold calling — internship, working student, or early full-time experience all count

• A structured, logical thinker who connects the dots from A to B

• Genuine comfort on the phone - you've made cold calls before and know what it takes to get past the first thirty seconds

• Strong self-motivation and the drive to generate business rather than wait for it

• Some exposure to SaaS, tech, or product environments, ideally fast-moving or disruptive ones

• Native-level German and strong English

Our Offer

• Competitive Compensation: Competitive compensation package with stock options for full-time employees.
• Work-Life Balance: Regular team events, hybrid work setup, 2 months/year remote work (Worcation), unlimited vacation days, and corporate pension plan.
• Personal Development: Personal budget for training, in-house trainings, and growth opportunities in a fast-paced environment.
• Mobility: Monthly budget for mobility or other expenses, and a subsidized Dance Mobility Subscription for E-Bike/E-Moped.
• Well-Being: Discounted Urban Sports Club membership and Wellhub for a variety of well-being offerings.
