Inside sales executive (German market)

Salary Competitive

Working at Pleo means you're working on something very exciting: the future of work. Through fintech we've seen a way to impact how people work; we think company spending should be delegated to all employees and teams, that it should be as automated as possible, and that it should drive a culture of responsible spending.


Are you a bit unsure what your first career steps should look like - and you just feel that you'd like to find out more about business?

This position could help you with just that. The ways we see it is that it's a foothold into either a career track in sales or marketing. If you're someone who's looking to explore the world of how business brings in revenue, this could be a great place to start. 

On top of this, here at Pleo we invest in people and set up clear career paths. You'll be having regular 1:1s with your manager, discussing your aspirations, and we'll do whatever we can to help you to realise them. We see this role as an entry-point into Pleo. From there, we'll sit with you, discuss your ambitions, and set up a path for success to meet them.

Starting a new role like this takes guts. We need you to have the confidence to pick up the phone and book meetings with people who have never heard of Pleo before. It takes efficiency as you'll look through all the people who are interested in Pleo, and qualify these leads from our website and book them for meetings with our sales team.

You'll also learn how to run different email and web campaigns, and figure out how to get more people to let us know that they're interested in using Pleo at their company.

 

The must-have skills

  • Strong communication skills (verbal + written) in German 
  • Strong communication skills in our company language, English 
  • Ambition to progress through the company
  • Good at relationship building
  • Interest in solving problems for companies

 

You'll stand out if you

  • Have some sales experience
  • Are a toastmaster, or are able to get on the phone or the stage quite comfortably
  • Speak a couple of different languages fluently

 

Your mom says you

  • Are ambitious, and are always open to new ways of doing things
  • Learn quickly, and are hungry to know more
  • Take feedback well
  • Make her proud (moms!)

 

Show me the benefits!

  • Your own Pleo card (no more out-of-pocket spending)
  • Pleo warrant programme
  • Flexible working options - if the plumber's coming, no worries (just speak to your team)
  • Quarterly trips for team camps (both company-wide ones and team-specific ones). We just came back from Berlin with drag-queen performers, just saying!
  • Investment in learning & developing (just check with your team for what's reasonable, we don't have set budgets)

 

And here are some other nice gestures that we do

  • Catered lunch
  • 25 days holidays (annual)
  • Loads of weird and wonderful niche communities to join in the company (we're talking guerrilla gardening, liquids tasting, the Pleo band, learning to code initiatives, that type of thing)
  • Wild enthusiasm and encouragement from us if you want to host MeetUps, events, etc - we'll help (venue, food etc)

 

Being HQ'd out of Copenhagen means we're inspired by sensible things like a good work-life balance, which permeates throughout our office. We also hire smart, nice people (no room for brilliant jerks).

 

Sometimes, people write nice things about us
