About this role

The mission

At Learned, we're building a fair, high-performing working world. Our software helps managers grow their teams continuously, evaluate them fairly and reward them transparently. The platform automates the whole performance and evaluation process. That saves managers valuable time and helps them have conversations with their people that make a real impact.

The opportunity

Our go-to-market engine in the Netherlands is proven and ready to scale internationally. We recently closed a new funding round specifically to speed up our expansion into Germany. As our first Account Executive in Germany, you'll win new customers in the German market. You'll run product demos and translate each prospect's challenges into the right solution on the Learned platform. You'll own the full sales cycle, from needs analysis and proposal through contract negotiation to close.

Then you'll hand each new customer over to Customer Success with a clear implementation plan. Not everything is set in stone yet, and that's exactly where you can bring in your own ideas and shape our German go-to-market strategy.

The team

We're a team of around 55 colleagues from more than seven nationalities, based in Utrecht. You'll work closely with our CCO and CEO, our German Partnership Manager and our German BDR. You'll spend your first two months of onboarding at our headquarters in Utrecht. After that, you'll be in the office about once a month and visit customers across Germany regularly. Whenever you're in Utrecht, you'll join our daily team lunch (healthy and fully taken care of), and we have a team activity every month.

Your development

This role goes well beyond a classic Account Executive position. Over time, you'll build your own German team of BDRs and (senior) Account Executives, with a clear path to Country Manager Germany. You'll have a lot of ownership, entrepreneurial freedom and direct influence on how we grow in Germany. An experienced, successful team in the Netherlands will back you up.
