About The Role

We are transforming conventional agency setups by helping modern e-commerce brands expand efficiently and flexibly. As a German-Speaking Account Executive, your main focus will be identifying and setting opportunities—converting warm, marketing-driven leads into high-value clients using a consultative, discovery-focused approach.

If you thrive in a fast-moving environment, have a driven hunter mindset, and want direct engagement with D2C founders generating up to €50M in revenue, this role provides fast career progression toward full closing or team leadership paths.

Key Responsibilities

  • Inbound Lead Conversion: Conduct initial discovery discussions with warm, pre-qualified inbound leads provided daily by marketing.
  • Discovery-Driven Selling: Evaluate business models, shop performance metrics, and key operational friction points instead of depending on standard sales pitches.
  • Rigorous Qualification: Uphold high standards by filter-qualifying leads and declining poor-fit accounts to maximize sales effectiveness.
  • Pipeline & CRM Ownership: Oversee your sales pipeline end-to-end with high CRM discipline, timely follow-ups, and precise forecasting.
  • Market Insights: Gather and share client feedback with internal product and marketing divisions to continuously improve outreach methods.
  • Events & Representation: Attend leading e-commerce trade fairs, conferences, and industry gatherings to connect directly with decision-makers.


Requirements

  • Must-Haves:
    • Language Proficiency: C1 Fluent German (spoken and written) with clear, professional articulation.
    • B2B Sales Track Record: 1–3+ years in B2B sales, phone sales, SDR/BDR, SaaS, or agency settings.
    • Hunter Mindset: High discipline, self-motivated drive, resilience under target pressure, and comfort with proactive outreach.
    • Financial Acumen: Practical understanding of P&L setups and contribution margins (Deckungsbeitrag).
    • On-Site Presence: Ability to work 4 days per week in our Munich facility.
  • Nice-to-Haves:
    • Direct experience in the e-commerce, D2C, or agency consulting industries.
    • Experience in specialized opening/setting roles within complex B2B services.


What We Offer

  • Competitive Compensation: Attractive €50,000 – €100,000 base package paired with structured performance commission options.
  • High-Quality Lead Flow: Daily inbound lead supply and exclusive e-commerce benchmark data supplied directly by marketing.
  • Career Growth: Clear fast-track growth from opening/setting into full-cycle closing or strategic leadership roles.
  • Culture & Autonomy: High ownership, zero micromanagement, and a collaborative team culture focused on continuous development.
  • Perks & Benefits: Modern Munich workplace, 4+1 hybrid flexibility, Evolt Wellpass, Deutschlandticket, annual team retreats, and regular social events.
