About our client magmamath
Magma Mathe is one of the fastest-growing EdTech scale-ups worldwide, sustainably transforming mathematics education through the use of AI. Our platform enables individualized, formative feedback for students. Teachers receive real-time feedback on knowledge gaps and gain valuable insights into their students' learning progress; so they can focus more on real learning success.
The result: more inclusive, more motivating, and measurably more effective math education.
But we don't just develop technology – we solve a global education problem. Worldwide, about one in five students struggles with mathematics – a subject that is crucial for many educational and career paths. Our mission is to improve educational outcomes on a large scale.
We are already used in thousands of schools and are growing rapidly in the USA and Europe – now also in Germany. To achieve this, we are building an ambitious team that shares our vision: supporting millions of students in unlocking their full potential.
About the role
Germany is one of our most important growth markets. As an Account Executive, you will play a central role in building our market presence – with a lot of responsibility, scope for initiative, and direct influence on our success.
This is a classic scale-up role: processes are constantly evolving, not everything is already defined. We are looking for people who take ownership, work in a structured manner, and enjoy growing in a dynamic environment.
You will be responsible for acquiring new customers (schools & school authorities) throughout Germany – from lead generation to closing the deal. You will work with both self-generated leads and qualified inbound inquiries within a typical sales cycle of around two months.
Success means for you:
Understanding challenges in the daily school routine and education policy
Building long-term relationships with decision-makers
Clearly demonstrating the measurable added value that Magma Mathe offers
Furthermore, you will represent us at trade fairs, conferences, and events in the education sector and actively contribute to establishing our brand in Germany.
Your tasks
Responsibility for the entire sales cycle: Prospecting, Discovery, Demos, Proposal Phase, and Closing
Building and maintaining relationships with school principals, heads of mathematics departments, school authorities, education offices, and education policymakers
Participating in conferences, trade fairs, and on-site appointments
Analyzing customer needs related to learning performance, financing, and teacher support
Close collaboration with Customer Success, Marketing, and Product
Active involvement in shaping processes and structures in a growing organization
Your profile
At least 2 years of sales experience (ideally SaaS, software, or tech)
Fluent German and English skills (minimum C1)
Experience in outbound sales and proactive customer outreach
Independent way of working and high self-motivation
Competitive personality with team spirit
What you can expect from magmamath
A key role in an internationally growing PE-backed scale-up
High degree of personal responsibility and genuine scope for initiative
Competitive salary + performance-based commission
Regular company events and annual team trips
30 vacation days and a monthly health subsidy
An international, ambitious team with strong cohesion
The opportunity to make a measurable contribution to the future of education
