About the Role
A fast-growing, Seed-stage European AI phone assistant SaaS startup — backed by leading European investors and building its own proprietary orchestration layer — is looking for a German-speaking Account Executive to join its Vienna-based team. This is a high-velocity inbound sales role: you will run multiple qualified demos every day, own the full sales cycle end-to-end, and play a direct role in driving revenue as the company scales rapidly across Europe.
There is no cold outreach — you'll work exclusively with pre-qualified inbound leads generated by a strong marketing engine. This is a rare opportunity to join an early-stage company at an inflection point, with significant upside and career growth potential.
What You'll Do

Conduct 8–16 qualified inbound discovery and demo calls per day, showcasing the AI phone assistant platform and its business value to SMB prospects.
-
Own the full sales cycle from first contact through closing, consistently working toward monthly and quarterly quota targets.
-
Manage warm leads, execute structured follow-ups, and keep your CRM pipeline clean, accurate, and up to date.
-
Ensure smooth, professional handovers to the Customer Success team after deal closure.
-
Relay customer and prospect feedback to the Marketing team and contribute to reliable sales forecasting.
-
Collaborate closely with teammates to continuously refine and optimise the sales motion in a rapidly scaling environment.

Must-haves:
-
1+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience, with a proven track record of closing deals end-to-end along a clearly defined funnel.

Native-level German fluency and a confident, polished phone and demo presence.

Experience handling a high volume of inbound demo appointments (8–16 per day) in a structured, quota-carrying role.
-
Demonstrated ability to maintain CRM hygiene and meet monthly/quarterly quota targets.
-
Experience collaborating cross-functionally with Marketing and Customer Success teams.
-
Strong product and technical understanding enabling effective SaaS demonstrations.
-
Based in or willing to relocate to Vienna, Austria (hybrid arrangements considered).
Nice-to-haves:
-
Prior experience in a startup or scale-up SaaS environment.
-
Hands-on experience with CRM platforms such as Salesforce or HubSpot, and data-driven forecasting.
-
Familiarity with AI, telephony, or contact centre technologies in a SaaS context.
Please note: Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
Compensation & Benefits
-
OTE: €70,000–€120,000 (competitive base salary plus uncapped commission).
-
Top-of-the-line equipment of your choice.

Opportunity to grow with a well-funded, early-stage company scaling rapidly across Europe.
