You will sell business-critical ERP solutions to SMEs and mid-sized organizations across industries such as manufacturing, wholesale, e-commerce and professional services.
The role combines active prospecting with consultative software sales. You will speak with business owners, Finance, Operations, IT and other decision-makers, identify operational challenges and translate them into a clear business case for change.

Experience with any of the following would be a strong advantage:
ERP or accounting software
Finance and business management systems
Inventory or warehouse management
Manufacturing or production software
Supply chain and procurement solutions
CRM or professional-services automation
Microsoft Dynamics, Exact, Odoo, NetSuite, Unit4 or similar business applications
Direct ERP experience is valuable, but we are also interested in strong new-business sellers from adjacent operational SaaS environments who can quickly understand customer processes and business value.
You are someone who genuinely enjoys winning new customers.
You are comfortable picking up the phone, opening doors and creating opportunities yourself, but you can also switch into a consultative mode once a prospect engages.
You take ownership of the process instead of waiting for someone else to move the deal forward. You ask good questions, understand the customer’s business, involve the right stakeholders and maintain momentum until a decision is reached.
You are equally comfortable discussing operational challenges with a user, ROI with a CFO and strategic priorities with a business owner or CEO.
If you have a strong track record in new-business sales and enjoy owning the full journey from first contact to signed customer, we would be happy to hear from you.
Apply with your LinkedIn profile or CV and tell us briefly what type of customers and solutions you have sold successfully.
