About the role

  • Your focus will be clearly on B2B sales and strategic customer work:
  • Sales presentations & pitch materials: Create and refine compelling presentations and sales decks for B2B client conversations — structured, data-driven, and to the point
  • Key Account Management: Manage and strategically grow existing customer relationships; identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities
  • B2B pipeline development: Identify, outreach to, and qualify potential corporate partners and customers
  • Strategic analyses: Conduct market, competitor, and customer analyses to inform the sales strategy
  • Support for the founders: Assist with client meetings, negotiations, and the further development of our go-to-market approach
  • Process optimization: Review and optimize existing sales and account-management processes
  • Reporting: Contribute to our KPI- and data-driven management system; prepare regular and ad-hoc reports

Requirements

  • Experience at a management consulting firm (e.g., MBB, Big 4, strategy consulting, or equivalent) — you bring the analytical and structured thinking typical of that background
  • Fluent in German and very good command of English
  • Strong ability to present complex information clearly and persuasively — whether in a deck or in conversation
  • You are a doer: able to develop high-level strategies and ready to implement them operationally
  • Nice-to-have: Experience in B2B sales, account management, or business development
  • Affinity for fintech, financial products, or SaaS
  • Experience in a startup environment
  • Personal qualities: independent working style with an eye for detail without getting lost in it
  • Flexible and resilient in a fast-changing environment
  • Growth mindset and openness to new responsibilities
Benefits
  • You’re not just another employee number — you’ll see the impact of your work first-hand
  • Direct collaboration with the founders on an equal footing
  • Steep learning curve: from sales strategy and negotiation skills to building a B2B business in a startup
  • Ideal preparation for founding your own startup or for a career in business development / sales leadership
  • Flexible choice of when and where you work
