Leadership role responsible for leading a sales team to drive business growth in a B2B signage company.
About the company
- At The Global Talent Co., we provide opportunities to work with leading innovative technology companies worldwide, offering stable employment, competitive compensation, career growth, and access to a community of 25,000+ like-minded professionals.
- 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 — think global household brands across Germany, Sweden, Poland, and beyond.
- 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 — it's a proven business with real revenue, real clients, and a clear roadmap to European market leadership.
- With offices in Berlin, Wrocław, and Helsingborg, they're at an exciting inflection point and building the senior commercial team to take them there.
Responsibilities
- 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.
- 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.
- Grow and develop the inbound sales team, outbound function, aftersales, and offline conversion
- Own sales team targets and metrics — 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
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience in sales, with at least some time leading or mentoring a team
- A strong sense of ownership — 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 — you don't need to have built it all before, but you need to be genuinely excited about it
- German at native level — this is non-negotiable
- Professional English
