  • At least 3 years of experience closing complex enterprise B2B SaaS deals.

  • A record of personally closing six-figure annual contract value deals and consistently attaining meaningful quotas across multiple sales cycles.

  • Experience selling enterprise software for supply chain management, vendor or supplier management, or finance functions such as accounts payable or budget control.

  • Strong judgment in mapping stakeholders and navigating complex enterprise buying committees.

  • Full professional proficiency in German and English.
