Job description

German-Speaking Account Executive

Are you a Sales professional ready to take your career into next step? Either you are a BDR, SDR, Account Manager, or in a position associate with Sales/Business development,

This is your opportunity to move into a high-impact Account Executive position with a fast-growing SaaS company, where you’ll own deals from initial outreach through to close and beyond.

This is a role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, is hungry to exceed targets, and wants to grow into a top-performing AE.

About the Role

As an Account Executive, you’ll manage the full sales cycle independently—from lead qualification and discovery to demo and close. You’ll balance strategic planning with hands‑on execution, managing a high-volume pipeline and owning your territory’s long-term success.

Top-performing AEs here close 70%+ of their opportunities, forecast with accuracy, and operate as trusted advisors to their prospects.

• Actively manage a high-volume pipeline and prioritize effectively
• Build and execute a strategic territory plan for sustainable growth
• Work collaboratively with peers and share best practices

• Take ownership of additional projects to expand your commercial skillset
• Represent the team with professionalism, accountability, and consistency

What You Bring

• Fluent in German and English (spoken and written)
• 1+ years of experience in a revenue-generating role such as BDR, SDR, Account Manager, or Junior AE in a SaaS/MarTech environment
• Proven success selling to founders, marketers, or business owners, ideally in ecommerce or retail
• Strong outbound prospecting ability with creative, strategic approaches
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-volume sales environment with multiple stakeholders
• Resilient, motivated, and goal-oriented — you thrive on exceeding targets
• Curious and coachable, with a strong growth mindset and drive for improvement
• Collaborative team player who brings energy, insight, and support to others
• Fully authorized to work in Ireland without sponsorship

What’s on Offer

• €47,500 base salary + €47,500 bonus | €95K OTE
