- Shape and execute the sales strategy in collaboration with leadership and other senior stakeholders.
- Build and manage the sales team, with the aim to set up a successful sales function within the company.

- Represent the company in sales calls, presentations, and negotiations with clarity, confidence, and impact.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- 5+ years of experience in B2B software sales.
- Proven track record of closing deals and leading sales efforts with SMEs and large enterprises.

- Experience in start-up or scale-up environments, with the ability to work autonomously and lead initiatives.
- Experience in managerial or lead role, ideally in SaaS is a plus.
Compensation Structure
- Base Pay: €2,000 to €2,500/month via invoicing (Service / B2B Agreement), depending on experience and seniority.
- Commission-Based Bonus: Significant performance-based bonuses for:
- - Own closed deals
