The Opportunity

Lead a team of 4–6 Key Account Managers across Central EMEA - DACH plus Eastern Europe - owning growth and retention across an established enterprise customer base. This is a first-line leadership seat where developing people is the actual job, not a side effect: coaching structured, data-led sellers who expand accounts and protect revenue. You'd inherit a real book with genuine white space, the internal resources to grow it, and a brand candidates already trust. For a manager who'd rather build a team than be the loudest rep in the room, there's a lot here.

The Business

Our client is an established, profitable global software company in the brand and design technology space - their technology sits behind a huge share of the world's most recognisable brand identities. This is not a bet on a trend: the product is mission-critical, the category position is dominant, and the company is stable in a way that's rare in software. With a global team of 1,000+ and untapped revenue across the existing customer base, they're investing in front-line sales leadership across Central EMEA.

The Role

• Lead and develop a team of 4–6 Key Account Managers across DACH and Eastern Europe
• Own net revenue retention and expansion (upsell and cross-sell) across the existing base
• Coach the team on pipeline management, forecasting accuracy and quota attainment
• Spot expansion opportunities and churn risk early, and turn account data into action
• Report weekly to senior leadership on pipeline health and deal progression
• Partner with Customer Success, Marketing, Pre-Sales and Legal to align execution

What You'll Bring

• 5–7 years in B2B SaaS sales (enterprise or mid-market) with consistent quota and strong retention
• 2+ years formally leading a sales/AM team (forecasting, quota planning, pipeline management)
• A real developer of people - structured, fact-based and empathetic coaching, not a top rep handed a team
• Native/fluent German (C1+) and business-fluent English
• Berlin-based and comfortable with ~25% travel

Nice to have: Salesforce plus a value methodology (MEDDIC / MEDDPICC / Challenger); experience across both DACH and Eastern Europe; the analytical rigour to turn account data into strategy.

What You'll Get

• Hybrid working + generous paid time off
• President's Club recognition (open to all functions)
• Structured sales onboarding + high internal mobility
