ABOUT THE COMPANY

You'll be joining a fast-scaling, founder-led company that is redefining an entire industry. Founded in 2014, this European B2B signage company has built a premium brand trusted by some of the most recognisable names in retail, hospitality, tech, and luxury β€” think global household brands across Germany, Sweden, Poland, and beyond.

Β 

What makes this company unique is its ambition: to become the first truly scalable business in a sector that has historically been fragmented, craft-based, and impossible to systematise. Through smart processes, technology, and now AI, they are doing exactly that. This is not a startup at zero β€” it's a proven business with real revenue, real clients, and a clear roadmap to European market leadership.

Β 

With offices in Berlin, WrocΕ‚aw, and Helsingborg, they're at an exciting inflection point and building the senior commercial team to take them there.

Β 

THE ROLE

This is one of the most important hires the company will make this year. What it requires is someone who has led a sales team, knows how to take ownership, and is ready to step fully into a leadership role and grow with the business.

Β 

As Sales Director you'll architect the commercial engine. You'll own the inbound and outbound sales functions, the CRM and AI-driven workflow transformation, and the customer experience from first touch to retention. You'll manage and develop a growing team of sales consultants, working closely with the founders to shape strategy and execute with discipline.

Β 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Grow and develop the inbound sales team, outbound function, aftersales, and offline conversion

  • Own sales team targets and metrics β€” structured planning and execution, not gut-feel management

  • Drive customer satisfaction and retention of key brand clients

  • Oversee the CRM system and full customer journey

  • Develop market and customer understanding to inform product, pricing, and strategy

  • Manage client relationships and resolve disputes when they arise

Β 

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • 3+ years of experience in sales, with at least some time leading or mentoring a team

  • A strong sense of ownership β€” you take responsibility for outcomes, not just activities

  • Comfortable managing people and holding a team accountable to results

  • Solid understanding of CRM systems, pipelines, and data-driven decision making

  • An appetite for AI-native tools and workflow automation β€” you don't need to have built it all before, but you need to be genuinely excited about it

  • German at native level β€” this is non-negotiable

  • Professional English

Β 

WHAT'S ON OFFER

  • Base salary up to €100,000 per year, depending on experience

  • A genuine seat at the table β€” direct access to the founders and real influence over commercial strategy

  • The chance to grow into and shape a Head of Sales role at a profitable, scaling business

  • Berlin-based, on-site role with an international, mission-driven team
