Job description

About CLER

At CLER, we're redefining clean air. CLER is a deep-tech start-up that is revolutionising global air purification. Our cutting-edge, filter-free purification technology delivers ultra-clean air while requiring no maintenance, consuming less energy, and delivering a much more sustainable solution.

Why this matters:

99% of the world’s population breathes air that fails to meet WHO guidelines, causing more than seven million deaths each year.

Indoor air quality is often 2–5x worse than outdoor air, even though we spend 90% of our lives indoors.

CLER's technology is backed by smart Swedish engineering and rigorous innovation. We believe in creating effortless, reliable air quality solutions that work for everyone, without compromise.

We aim to become the new global standard in air filtration. Our ambition is to redefine how the world cleans its air - by cutting waste, reducing CO₂ emissions and protecting public health.

About the Role

We’re looking for a driven and resourceful Account Executive to build our sales function from the ground up. You’ll own the full sales process—from identifying prospects to closing deals—and help architect the playbook, tools, and process that will carry CLER forward.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role. You’ll be a central pillar in shaping how we sell, scale, and grow. If you’re bold enough to dive in and senior enough to lead, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

What you will be doing

• Lead the end-to-end sales cycle, owning pipeline creation, qualification, negotiation, and closing.
• Build our sales infrastructure from scratch—processes, tooling (CRM, automation), and the overall playbook.
• Champion operational efficiency through sales tool adoption, particularly AI and automation.
• Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and leadership—feeding market insights into product evolution and strategic direction.
• Get scrappy: prospect, demo, follow up, negotiate, and close—with grit and speed.

Whom are we looking for

• Have a proven track record of 3-5 years’ experience in B2B sales, commercial strategies, or a comparable role in a prestigious or industry-leading organisation.
• Someone who has built automation flows, using AI and other tools, to streamline outreach and get results.
• Someone who is highly driven - take clear responsibility for driving quota, hitting business targets, and putting the outcome of the company first.
• Brings a bias for action, you move fast, iterate, and don’t wait to be told what to do.
• Are naturally curious, seeing every challenge as an opportunity to learn and grow.
• Exhibit genuine openness to feedback, valuing the insights of others, and recognizing the importance of continuous improvement.
• Is comfortable putting in the extra hours when needed, not because it’s expected, but because you’re genuinely invested in the mission.
• Demonstrate a founder-like mindset, tackling obstacles with initiative and creating scalable systems for growth.

What We Offer

• Come in early stage in a high ambition startup. Grow with the role and take more responsibility over Scandinavian- and potentially European markets.
• Small team and flat hierarchy - opportunity to directly impact company growth and strategy.
• Competitive salary and compensation scheme.
• Centrally located offices in Stockholm
• Most importantly - Making a true impact for the world - contribute to cutting waste, reducing CO₂ emissions and increasing public health.

Recruitment process

We’re reviewing applications continuously, so don’t wait to apply. This is a full-time position based in Stockholm, Sweden. Swedish work permit is required.
