Account Executive - Italy (all genders)
We are launching our first major international expansion, and we are looking for an entrepreneurial builder to spearhead our entry into the Italian market. You will have a blank canvas to establish our commercial presence in Italy, owning the entire pipeline from first touch to signed contract.
Overview
Why this role matters
We have proven our product-market fit and are now ready to scale beyond our DACH borders. As our first dedicated commercial hire for Italy, your success will define our international expansion playbook and directly influence our global go-to-market strategy. Without you, we cannot capture the massive, untapped demand waiting in the Italian B2B ecosystem.
Responsibilities
What you'll do
You will own the complete end-to-end sales cycle and local market strategy for Italy.
- Build and manage a robust pipeline of qualified opportunities from scratch through targeted outbound campaigns.
- Execute the complete sales cycle, from running sharp discovery calls and high-impact product demonstrations to negotiating and closing high-value deals.
- Design and iterate on the Italy-specific sales playbook, documenting what resonates locally to accelerate future hires.
- Feed critical product feedback and market intelligence back to our product and global GTM teams in Munich.
- Master our modern sales tech stack, including HubSpot and Outreach, to automate and optimize your daily sales operations.
Candidate profile
Who this is a fit for
- Holds 1-2 years of closing experience in B2B SaaS sales specifically targeting the Italian market.
- Possesses a strong existing network of relevant B2B decision-makers and buyers in Italy.
- Speaks Italian at a native level and is fully fluent in English (German is a strong plus).
- Holds a completed Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Business, Economics, Engineering, or an analytical field.
- Navigates modern sales tools like HubSpot and Outreach with high proficiency and structured execution.
- Operates with an entrepreneurial, self-starting mindset that thrives in high-autonomy environments.
Culture
What it's like to work here
Fast-moving, "revolutionary" energy with a heavy focus on autonomy, ownership, and an office-first culture at the Munich office (featuring table tennis and good coffee). Not a fit for people who need step-by-step guidance or rigid corporate structures.
What you get
The offer
- Deep operational autonomy to run the Italian market as your own business unit.
- Direct influence on our international expansion strategy and product roadmap.
- High-energy team culture with an office-first environment at our Munich Stiglmaierplatz headquarters.
- Modern office perks including regular team table tennis tournaments and premium coffee.
- Unmatched professional growth as the pioneering sales lead for a major new region.

A quick note
This probably isn't for you if:
- You need structured, step-by-step guidance, rigid playbooks, or a defined corporate blueprint to perform.
- You prefer a fully remote setup; we thrive on high-energy, in-office collaboration in Munich.
- You want to focus purely on warm inbound leads rather than aggressively hunting and building your own pipeline.
