Overview

ABOUT THE ROLE

Full job description

ABOUT THE ROLE This is a generalist, high-ownership role sitting right at the center of an early-stage B2B cleantech software company. You will work directly with the founding team to drive revenue, build sales infrastructure, and keep operations moving, making this a rare opportunity to shape a company from the ground up in the European energy transition space. WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Build and execute the sales playbook, owning outreach, pipeline development, and deal closure with B2B decision-makers.
  • Identify and pursue new revenue opportunities across European commercial and industrial markets.
  • Design and implement internal operational processes to keep daily work running without friction.
  • Support team growth by coordinating recruiting efforts and attracting strong candidates.
  • Work across Sales, Growth, and Customer Success, stepping in wherever the company needs you most.
  • Tackle ambiguous, undefined problems with speed and a bias for action. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
  • Native or bilingual German and fluent English (required).
  • At least 1 year of experience at a high-growth startup, venture capital fund, investment bank, or strategy consulting firm, or a strong academic background from a competitive university plus relevant internship experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to execute B2B sales outreach and engage senior decision-makers.
  • Hands-on experience with CRM systems and sales automation tooling.
  • Comfort with ambiguity, fast iteration, and early-stage environments where scope is not always defined.
  • Experience designing operational or internal processes from scratch.
  • A competitive, high-energy mindset with a strong sense of personal ownership.
  • Bonus: exposure to product, growth, marketing, strategy, or operations functions.
  • Bonus: prior touchpoints with cleantech, battery energy storage systems (BESS), or European energy markets. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
  • Base salary: 65,000 to 85,000 EUR annually.
  • Equity: VSOP or equity package included with standard vesting schedule.
  • Visa sponsorship: Not available. LOCATION On-site in Berlin, Germany (Hamburg or Kiel also considered). This is not a remote role.
