This is a high‑impact, hands‑on commercial leadership role for a senior sales executive who thrives in a builder’s environment.

You will start as an individual contributor – owning pipeline generation, closing strategic deals, and shaping our GTM motion across the DACH region. As revenue grows, you will build, hire, and lead a high‑performing sales team and scale the commercial organisation.

If you are energized by building something new, winning mid‑market and enterprise clients, and shaping the future of AI‑powered transformation – this role is for you.

  • Work closely with the Head of Delivery and Delivery Centres to ensure smooth handover and long‑term client success
  • Represent AumentIQ at industry conferences, events, and ecosystem networking opportunities
  • Conduct market and competitive research to refine our GTM and positioning
Scale: Build & Lead the Sales Team
  • Hire, onboard, and develop a high‑performing Sales Team
  • Build repeatable sales processes, forecasting discipline, and performance dashboards
  • Coach and mentor the team to drive predictable quarterly performance
  • Establish a culture of excellence, accountability, and cross‑team collaboration
  • Drive alignment between Sales, Knowledge, Solution Architecture and Delivery
Market Development & Partnerships
  • Continuously analyse customer needs, market trends, and competitor movements
  • Refine AumentIQ’s positioning in the DACH market with initial focus on the mid‑market and later expansion into enterprise segments
  • Build partnerships with technology vendors, consultancies, and system integrators
  • Work with technical sales support to craft differentiated, high‑quality proposals
  • Establish AumentIQ as a thought leader in AI transformation and digital innovation across the region
What You Bring
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Computer Science, or related field. MBA is a plus
  • 10+ years of experience in B2B technology sales, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role
  • Proven track record of consistently exceeding sales targets in software development, digital transformation, or AI/technology services to mid‑market clients
  • Strong understanding of digital transformation trends, AI/ML technologies, and enterprise digitalisation development
  • Experience selling to mid‑sized organisations (€250k – €2m engagements) and complex, multi‑stakeholder sales processes
  • Demonstrated experience with consultative selling and solution‑based sales approaches
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and presentation skills
  • Experience building and scaling sales teams in competitive markets
  • Strong network within the DACH technology ecosystem, particularly in the mid‑market segment
  • Knowledge of software development methodologies and emerging technologies is highly valued
  • Willingness to travel across the DACH and occasionally to European Delivery Centres
  • Languages: German – Fluent or Business‑Fluent and English – Strong business proficiency (mandatory)
What We Offer
  • Competitive salary + industry‑leading commission
