Job description

We're looking for a German speaking Business Development Representative to join our team in Leiden or Berlin!

You'll be joining a team of BDRs who are at the heart of ChannelEngine's growth - building pipeline from scratch through calls, emails, social media, and in-person events, and setting up demos with our Account Executives. It's a role where you'll see the direct impact of your work pretty quickly.

If you're fluent in German and genuinely excited about building a career in sales, we'd love to hear from you. We care more about your attitude and willingness to learn than your exact background - if you're driven, coachable, and good with people, we'll make sure you get the training and support to grow.

What makes you the ideal candidate?

• Fluent in both German and English, spoken and written
• Genuinely motivated to build a career in sales - your background matters less than your drive and your coachability
• Experience in a customer-facing role - whether that's sales, retail, hospitality, or support - and comfortable engaging and persuading people
• A growth mindset: you actively seek feedback, take it on board, and show up each week better than the last
• Demonstrate resilience and persistence when handling rejection and working towards a "yes"

Why you’ll love working here:

• A structured onboarding and ramp-up program with real hands-on coaching
• A professional, yet informal work environment, where it’s easy for you to try new things, share your ideas, and make an impact
• A team that genuinely invests in your development, with regular 1-on-1s, feedback, and a clear path to grow into a closing role
• An annual on-target bonus, paid in monthly installments
• Free access to mental healthcare support
