  • Experience with cold calling and closing, with a phone-first sales approach.

  • Experience selling HR technology or recruiting software, ideally to staffing agencies or temporary employment firms in DACH.

  • Experience independently developing go-to-market plans for a new market and selling to mid-market businesses.

  • Familiarity with applicant tracking systems, such as Bullhorn or JobAdder, and a network in the DACH HR or staffing sector are valued.
