This is not a general sales role. You will be tasked with hunting and closing high-value, complex deals within the German Enterprise segment (1,000+ employees), positioning our mission-critical platform as a strategic necessity for HR, Communications, and IT leadership.

- Act as a Consultative Advisor: Become an expert in digital employee experience and internal communication trends, using data and insights to build compelling business cases and challenge prospect assumptions.
- Drive Internal Collaboration: Work cross-functionally with Solution Engineers (SEs), Customer Success, and Product teams to ensure seamless discovery, solution scoping, and successful contract closure.
- Be a Brand Ambassador & Value Driver: Represent Staffbase with professionalism and enthusiasm, contributing your unique insights to shape our GTM strategy and our unique, high-energy company culture.
What You Need to Be Successful (Experience & Mindset)
- 3+ Years of Proven Enterprise SaaS Sales Success: Track record of consistently producing and exceeding revenue targets within the Enterprise segment (>$100k ARR deals preferred), ideally selling sophisticated B2B software (HR Tech, MarTech, Collaboration, or Web/Cloud solutions).

- Strategic Account Management: Deep understanding and proven application of strategic selling methodologies (e.g., MEDDICC/MEDDPICC) to control and accelerate sales cycles.
- Scale-Up Aptitude: Proven ability to thrive in a fast-paced, scale-up environment, demonstrating high emotional intelligence and adaptability.
- Language Mastery: Fluent German (C2 level) and professional, business-proficient English skills are mandatory.
