Job description

Docusign brings agreements to life. Over 1.5 million customers and more than a billion people in over 180 countries use Docusign solutions to accelerate the process of doing business and simplify people's lives. With intelligent agreement management, Docusign unleashes business-critical data that is trapped inside of documents. Until now, these were disconnected from business systems of record, costing businesses time, money, and opportunity. Using Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Management platform, companies can create, commit, and manage agreements with solutions created by the #1 company in e-signature and contract lifecycle management (CLM).

The Role

As a Commercial Account Executive for Germany and Austria, you will manage a regional territory spanning mid-market to emerging enterprise accounts across various industries. Operating out of either of our Dublin or Munich hubs, you will own a hybrid book of business, balancing high-potential new logo acquisition with revenue expansion across established customers.

Reporting to the Senior Manager, Commercial Sales, this role calls for an adaptable closer who can balance high-velocity, run-rate deals with complex, multi-threaded enterprise cycles. Operating in the rapidly evolving Intelligent Agreement Management category, you will act as a trusted advisor, educating customers on digital agreement best practices and leading value-led transformations. By taking full ownership of strategic account reviews and whitespace discovery across your territory, you will be responsible for safeguarding existing portfolio value while actively driving net-new ARR (GNARR) through new departmental use cases and product lines.

Key Responsibilities

• Take strategic ownership of your assigned territory across Germany and Austria to consistently hit annual quota targets with quarterly pacing.
• Drive net-new annual recurring revenue (GNARR) and portfolio growth by acquiring high-value new logos as well as expanding existing accounts.
• Execute structured account planning and whitespace analysis to identify new departmental use cases, product lines, and subsidiary expansion opportunities.
• Manage a dual sales motion, balancing high-velocity run-rate deals with complex, multi-threaded enterprise cycles involving mutual close plans.
• Act as a trusted advisor to C-level decision-makers and multi-department buying committees, building tailored business cases that quantify ROI.
• Lead end-to-end sales cycles from discovery and live solution demos to technical, security, and commercial negotiations.
• Orchestrate internal cross-functional partners including Solution Consultants, Legal, Security, Sales Development, and Partner Account Managers.
• Collaborate with Customer Success and Renewal Managers during joint account reviews and renewals to uncover new expansion potential early.
• Maintain rigorous Salesforce CRM discipline to deliver accurate weekly forecasts and pipeline visibility.

Why Join Docusign in this Role?

• Position a category-defining Intelligent Agreement Management platform with strong product-market fit across all industries and business functions.
• Drive high-impact growth in DACH, one of Docusign's largest, fastest-growing global markets.
• Access high-value accounts in a Commercial segment defined by software spend potential rather than rigid company headcount or revenue caps, giving you exposure to mid-market up to emerging multi-national enterprises.
• Benefit from a dynamic hybrid portfolio that combines fast-paced, transactional deals with complex enterprise opportunities, mitigating pipeline risk and providing multiple paths to quota delivery and over attainment.
• Compelling compensation structure with uncapped commission, strong accelerators, and a proven track record of high team attainment above quota.
• Focus on strategic value creation and active expansion (GNARR), supported by dedicated Customer Success and Renewals teams who handle retention and platform health.
• Structured internal mobility and leadership progression out of our Dublin and Munich hubs into Enterprise AE roles or Sales leadership.
• Dedicated professional development budgets, structured enablement, and ongoing executive sales coaching to support your career growth.
