This is a hands-on outbound sales role, and the heart of it is talking to people. In the Netherlands, one focused salesperson driving cold and semi-cold calling has been remarkably effective for us -and we want to repeat that in the German market.
You’ll:
Open new business across DACH through cold and semi-cold calling — this is the core of the role
Build relationships on LinkedIn: real, personal outreach (supported by light automation), with a soft-selling approach
Give Smart Factory product demos in German (or grow into it)
Help us make the most of our presence at a major industry trade show this September
Own the top of the funnel — from first hello to a qualified conversation
What we’re looking for
Fluent or native German — this is essential. You’ll be calling, writing to, and presenting to German-speaking prospects every day.
Proven experience in outbound sales, cold calling, or business development
You’re comfortable — and effective — on the phone. Cold and semi-cold calling doesn’t scare you; you’re good at it.
Solid English — our internal team works and communicates in English
Self-driven, organized, and resilient — you can run your own pipeline without being chased
Nice to have
Experience selling B2B software / SaaS, ideally to manufacturing or industrial companies • Experience giving product demos
Comfortable with CRM and sales-automation / LinkedIn outreach tools
Why you’ll like it
You’re opening a market. This isn’t one more seat in an established team — you’re the person bringing Smart Factory to DACH. Real ownership, real impact.
A playbook that already works. Our approach is proven in the Netherlands; you get to adapt it, not invent it from scratch.
Long-term and remote, with a small, supportive team that backs you with automation and marketing.
