About the Role

This is a hands-on sales leadership position at a fast-growing B2B SaaS company serving industrial Mittelstand customers across the DACH region. You will lead a team of roughly five Account Executives while carrying your own quota, shaping go-to-market strategy in a largely greenfield market, and delivering measurable procurement value to customers in manufacturing and industrial sectors.

• Close deals against a personal quota while coaching the team to exceed collective targets.

• Partner with founders and sales leadership to shape and execute go-to-market strategy in a greenfield market.

• Join critical customer conversations to guide deal strategy, reduce risk, and support negotiations and business case development.

• Build and develop a high-performing sales team through structured training, hands-on deal support, and performance management.

• Implement and coach structured sales methodologies, including MEDDIC, to sharpen discovery, negotiation, and pipeline management.

• Drive team performance through metrics tracking, pipeline reviews, and action planning to increase win rates and deal velocity.

• Identify and apply AI-driven workflows to accelerate team productivity and share best practices across the broader sales organisation.

What We're Looking For

• 3 or more years as an Account Executive in B2B SaaS, with experience in complex, non-transactional sales cycles.

• At least 1 year in a formal sales leadership role, ideally within a high-growth SaaS environment.

• Demonstrated track record of consistently meeting or exceeding sales targets.

• Strong ability to apply and coach structured sales methodologies such as MEDDIC.

• Experience contributing to go-to-market strategy in a new or underpenetrated market.

• Strategic thinker who can also execute tactically at the deal level.

• Highly motivated, resilient, and results-oriented with a purpose-driven mindset.
