Sales Manager (Remote based anywhere in Europe)

• Location: Remote, Mazowieckie, Poland
• Remote: Remote
• Type: Permanent
• Job #26112

This is a true “market maker” role for a hungry German-speaking, high-output sales professional who wants ownership, autonomy, and a visible growth runway. You’ll launch and scale the German market for a new entrant, land the first reference customers, and—once Germany is performing—expand into Austria, Switzerland, Poland and then Scandinavia as the next phase of the plan.

Location / Flexibility

This role can be based anywhere in Europe (ideally Austria, Belgium, France, Poland, or the UK).

You must:

• Speak professional/fluent German (mandatory)
• Have proven experience doing business in Germany (selling into Germany / German customers / partners)
• Be willing to travel to Germany for business meetings

Company context (innovation + private equity growth agenda)

The business has an innovative, technical solution aimed at the hygiene / odour marketplace, built to solve a real operational problem for multi-site customers. Backed by leading private equity, the company is now entering its next growth phase with a clear mandate: accelerate customer acquisition and build momentum in Europe. Germany is the immediate priority market.

What you’ll do

• Win new business in Germany: prospect, qualify, pitch, negotiate, close
• Open doors with large multi-site organisations and key decision makers
• Build and manage an indirect channel: identify, recruit, and drive performance with resellers/distributors (including making tough calls when performance isn’t there)
• Create the go-to-market playbook for Germany (messaging, target segments, activity cadence, pipeline discipline)
• Provide market feedback to leadership on positioning, pricing, and channel strategy
• Prepare and support the next phase: Northern Europe expansion (Poland, Austria, Switzerland and Scandinavia) once Germany is delivering

What you’ll sell

A technical, differentiated hygiene/odour-control solution with a strong “need + ROI” story and repeat deployment potential. Typical target environments include washroom/hygiene service providers, multi-site operators, hospitality, and other high-sensitivity hygiene contexts—via both direct sales and partner networks.

What we’re looking for

• Proven B2B hunter mindset with consistent new-logo wins
• Strong ability to run a full sales cycle end-to-end (from cold outreach to close)
• Comfortable operating independently in a build phase (no inherited book of business)
• Experience with distributor / reseller models is a strong advantage
• “Product-led” selling background preferred (vs very long, complex services-only cycles)

Languages: professional German + fluent/professional English (both required)

Why high performers take this role

• Blank canvas in Germany + real authority to build something meaningful
• Direct alignment to a private-equity growth plan (high visibility, strong urgency, quick decisions)
• Clear runway to broaden territory into Austria, Switzerland, Poland and Scandinavia
• A compensation structure designed to attract top talent (with a strong emphasis on fixed pay), plus upside linked to new business impact

Next Steps

If you’re ready to build a high-impact sales career in the hygiene and/or food services space, we’d love to hear from you. Our client is looking for proactive, driven German-speaking sales professionals who enjoy winning new business, building relationships, and growing a territory.
