Field Account Executive - Stuttgart (m,f,d)

About Us & The Opportunity

Ready for the freedom to work completely independently, but with the power of a global tech pioneer behind you?
Lightspeed is the leading all-in-one platform for retail and hospitality. After a successful launch in all major German cities, Stuttgart is our next stop! As an AI-driven tech company, we offer you one of the best SaaS products on the market.

In this role, you're not just an employee – you're the "owner" of your own territory in Stuttgart. Together with a new, dynamic team of approx. 3 people and an experienced manager on-site, you will conquer the Stuttgart gastronomic market. We do without micromanagement and rely on trust, freedom, and results.

Your Mission in Stuttgart

You will take full responsibility for your sales territory and win over the city's top locations for Lightspeed. Your success is based on a modern, holistic sales approach:

• Digital Tailwinds: We actively support you through performance marketing & qualified leads.

• Strategic Partnerships: You will build a local network and strong referral management.

• Targeted Cold Calling & Walk-ins: You will be present in the market daily, visiting restaurants, cafés, and bars, and convincing the owners directly on-site.

• Full-Cycle Responsibility: You will manage the entire process independently – from the first handshake to the product demo to the successful contract closing.

• Consultative Selling: You don't just sell software, but partner with restaurateurs to help them make their businesses more successful.

Who You Are (Your Profile)

• A True Hunter: You love the challenge of acquiring new customers, are extremely self-motivated, and don't need anyone constantly looking over your shoulder.

• Strong Communicator: You speak German at a native level (essential for building trust with local owners) and have good English skills.

• Charismatic & Resilient: You have a confident demeanor, strong presentation skills, and no problem walking into a busy restaurant and starting a conversation.

• Ambitious: You want to take your success into your own hands and are looking for an environment where performance is directly rewarded.

• Experience: Initial experience in sales, business development, or the hospitality industry is a plus – however, your drive and attitude count the most for us.

The Offer – Why Lightspeed?

• Attractive Compensation Package: A fair base salary paired with uncapped commission – with above-average earning potential for top performers.

• Regular Salary Boost: A true performance culture where your salary can noticeably increase at short intervals by achieving clear revenue milestones.

• Secure Start: We invest in you. Look forward to a first-class onboarding month and a structured ramp-up phase, including a guaranteed bonus in the first few months.

• Company Equity: Become directly involved in Lightspeed's success through our attractive stock program.

• Lifestyle & Flexibility: Benefit from trust-based working hours and an annual budget for fitness and wellness.

• Team Power & Culture: Work in a great local team at our Munich HQ and celebrate our successes at legendary events – like our global Sales Summit in Canada.

• Additional Benefits: Contribution towards your public transport ticket for Stuttgart and professional mental health support via the Modern Health app.
