In this role, you will be growing the Swedish business and using your business development skills to bring out the best in each client opportunity.

• Gather customer requirements, understand their business needs and IT plans, think strategically about their needs and address them through the framework of our solutions;
• Collaborate with the marketing team to develop new strategies that help maximise sales revenue and profitability;
• Continuously learn and grow your knowledge of the Quinyx product and market trends.

✅ What we’re looking for

• Proven field sales experience within the SaaS industry focused on new business;
• Outstanding consultative sales skills and experience from longer, more complex sales cycles that typify a strategic sales process;
• Demonstrated ability to instigate, carry through and close deals;
• Around 3-5 years total commercial work experience;
• Fluency in the Swedish and English languages, as these will be used in the day-to-day work.

✨ Nice to have (but not required)

• Experience working with enterprise deals, preferably selling Workforce Management / HCM / Talent Management / Payroll or other related SaaS software;
• Knowledge of sales methodologies. An understanding of MEDDPICC sales methodology would be advantageous.

💡 Desired personality traits

• A self-starter attitude with the ability to get up to speed on complex concepts;
• Problem‑solving skills, being result‑oriented, and able to eliminate obstacles through creative and adaptive thinking;
• Good time management, strategic planning, and organisational skills.
