About the Role

This is a high-impact, generalist sales role sitting directly alongside the founding team of an early-stage B2B SaaS company serving the commercial and industrial energy storage market in Europe. You'll help build the go-to-market engine from the ground up, with real ownership and daily access to senior leadership.

What You'll Do

  • Work fluidly across Sales, Growth, and Customer Success, prioritising wherever the business needs you most.

  • Help build and iterate on the sales playbook, identifying new revenue opportunities in B2B markets across Europe.

  • Design and implement internal operational processes to keep day-to-day execution running smoothly.

  • Support team growth by coordinating recruiting efforts and helping attract strong candidates.

  • Tackle ambiguous, undefined problems end-to-end — learning fast and driving outcomes with limited guidance.

What We're Looking For

  • 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 (Bachelor's or Master's, top results) with 1+ relevant internships in similar environments.

  • Demonstrated ability to execute B2B outreach and close deals with senior decision-makers.

  • Proven track record building sales or operational processes from scratch in fast-moving, early-stage settings.

  • Hands-on experience with CRM systems and sales automation tooling.

  • High ownership mindset: comfortable with ambiguity, rapid iteration, and independently scoped work.

  • Nice to have: exposure to product, growth, marketing, strategy, or operations; prior experience in CleanTech, battery storage, or energy markets; familiarity with European C&I markets.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base salary: €65,000 – €85,000 per year

  • Equity: VSOP / equity package with standard vesting included

  • Visa sponsorship: Not available
