About the Role

We are a fast-growing, angel-backed European B2B SaaS startup building AI-powered phone automation solutions for businesses. Our product helps companies automate inbound and outbound calls, schedule appointments, and deliver 24/7 customer service - all powered by proprietary AI developed and hosted entirely in Europe.

We're looking for a driven Account Executive (German Speaking) to join our Vienna-based team. You'll run high-volume inbound demos, own the full sales cycle, and play a central role in scaling our revenue engine. No cold outreach - just qualified inbound leads ready to see what we can do.

What You'll Do

Conduct 8–16 qualified inbound discovery and demo calls per day, showcasing the product and its business value to prospective customers.

Own the end-to-end sales cycle - from first contact through closing - against clear monthly and quarterly quota targets.

Manage warm leads, execute timely follow-ups, and maintain a clean, accurate CRM pipeline.

Ensure smooth handovers to Customer Success after deal closure.

Feed structured customer insights back to Marketing and contribute to reliable sales forecasting.

Collaborate closely with teammates to continuously refine and improve the sales motion in a rapidly scaling environment.

What We're Looking For

Must-haves:

At least 1 year of B2B SaaS sales experience with a proven track record of closing deals end-to-end along a defined funnel.

Native-level German proficiency and a confident, polished phone and demo presence.

Experience handling a high volume of inbound demos daily.

Skilled in structured CRM pipeline management, lead follow-up, and meeting quota targets.

Strong product and technical understanding - able to deliver compelling SaaS demonstrations.

Experience collaborating with Marketing and Customer Success teams on feedback loops and forecasting.

Willingness to work on-site in Vienna (hybrid arrangements considered).

Nice-to-haves:

Startup or scale-up SaaS sales background.

Hands-on experience with CRM platforms such as Salesforce or HubSpot and data-driven forecasting.

Familiarity with AI, telephony, or contact center technologies in a SaaS context.

Visa sponsorship: Not available.

Compensation & Benefits

OTE: €70,000–€120,000 (competitive base salary plus uncapped commission).

Top-of-the-line equipment - your choice.

Work at the forefront of AI and voice automation technology in a high-growth European startup.

Location

This role is based on-site in Vienna, Austria. A hybrid arrangement may be considered. Remote-only candidates are not a fit for this role.
