Background selling SaaS, AI, or automation products, ideally into logistics, freight forwarding, or supply chain operations.
Strong discovery, business case development, and ROI quantification skills in operational environments.
Experience developing sales playbooks and go-to-market strategies, as well as handling pricing, negotiations, and deal structuring.
Comfort working in a founder-led or early-stage environment.
Fluent German and English, including the ability to conduct business negotiations and presentations. Additional European languages are a plus.
Authorization to work locally in Germany and willingness to work in person several days per week and travel regularly.
