Digital Account Executive DACH (m/f/d)

At SoSafe, we aim to become the leading provider of Human Risk Management solutions in Europe. Our award-winning awareness platform helps companies achieve sustainable behavioral change through effective, interactive training on cybersecurity and data protection. Cybercrime costs the world over $10 trillion annually, with costs increasing by 15% each year – become part of the solution and actively shape the future of cybersecurity!

As a Digital Account Executive (m/f/d), you will join a dynamic, ambitious, and international team of Account Executives that focuses on collaboration, daily knowledge sharing, and the continuous optimization of sales processes. Success drives us – and with our open, motivating team culture, achieving goals is twice as much fun.

You will independently build a strong sales pipeline and a resilient network – because sustainable sales start with your own initiative. With your understanding of your customers' challenges and needs, you will identify the right opportunities, compellingly position our cybersecurity offering, and present solutions that your customers cannot do without. This is how you will meet and exceed your sales targets.

Teamwork is crucial – you will work closely with internal teams such as Customer Success and Partner Managers to ensure a seamless and impactful customer experience. Your ability to close deals and drive new business is critical to your success and growth in this role.

How you contribute to success:

• Identification and acquisition of new business opportunities in the SMB segment in the DACH market

• Responsibility for the entire sales cycle – from initial contact to closing – with the goal of acquiring new customers and meeting your sales quota

• Building, qualifying, and independently developing new leads to ensure a sustainable and well-filled sales pipeline.

• Management, negotiation, and closing of cross-selling and upselling potentials in close cooperation with Customer Success Managers

• Building sustainable relationships with key decision-makers of potential customers and compellingly presenting the added value of our cybersecurity solutions

• Presenting our innovative product in online demos, in-person meetings, and at events to strengthen customer business

What sets you apart:

• At least 1 year of full-cycle sales experience in SaaS sales in DACH, with a focus on new customer acquisition – ideally in SMB sales in an agile, fast-paced environment

• Sense of responsibility and ownership – you take initiative, remain consistently goal-oriented, and close deals with discipline and sustainability

• Team spirit and cross-functional collaboration – you work closely with marketing, customer success, and product teams to best address customer needs

• Proactivity and self-reliance – you organize your pipeline independently, set clear priorities, and act in a solution-oriented manner

• Adaptability and sense of priorities – you quickly find your way in a dynamic start-up environment and remain focused even under pressure

• Willingness to learn and openness to feedback – you actively use coaching for the further development of your sales skills and constructively question existing approaches

• Proficient use of AI-powered sales and productivity tools – you use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or comparable solutions for preparing conversations, creating proposals, and research; you are familiar with AI-powered sales tools for optimizing your outreach and closing activities

• Experience with CRM and prospecting tools – you have initial knowledge of Salesforce or HubSpot, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and common sequencing tools

• Willingness to work hybrid – with regular in-office days at the Cologne office

• Fluent German and English skills are required – other languages are a plus

What we offer*:

• Work-Life Balance: Flexible working hours, 33 days of vacation, and additional financial support during parental leave

• Well-being and Financial Support: Access to the Open-Up App, employee discounts, and well-being & fitness benefits with Urban Sports Club

• Connection & Community: Virtual events, joint team activities, and opportunities for local meetups

• And much more: Technical equipment, referral bonuses, an individual further education budget, dog-friendly office
