🀝 About The Position

Over the last 3 years, we have closed over 1.000 eCommerce brands, completely inbound driven by a great product and great service.

Your responsibility, will not only be to take some of the closing responsibility of our founders, but also validate and build a high performing sales department within Klar.

This means you will take ownership of the following topics:

  • Take over closing of larger inbound deals - currently larger deals are still being closed by our success team and founder. After onboarding, this will be your responsibility.

  • Hire the initial sales team - next to this role, we are looking to hire at least one more team member for the sales team who’s hiring you will be responsible as well as future team members post GTM validation.

  • Build and validate an outbound sales motion - our growth has been purely inbound but to accelerate growth even further, you will (together with the other hires) will be responsible for building and validating an outbound sales motion for the mid-market segment (50-250m in revenue) and scaling that across Europe.

  • Reactivate cold leads and closed lost deals - at 50%, we have a great demo to closed won conversion. At the same time, this also means that there is still plenty of potential leads already in our CRM that can be reactivated and closed.

  • Join our community events - next to Klar, we run the eCom Unity - Europe’s largest German eCommerce community where we host 15+ events each year. Plus, we also exhibit at large trade fairs like OMR, K5 & DMEXCO. A great opportunity to connect with potential new customers and close existing leads.

  • Level-up our Success team sales skills - to keep things lean, smaller deals will likely in the future still be closed directly from our onboarding and success team. These are all eCom people by background and are looking forward to learning from you.
