Full-Cycle Sales – Space Tech (all genders)
Taufkirchen, Garching / Full-time / Permanent employee
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
We build carbon-fiber pressure vessels that go into orbit. You'll build the pipeline that gets them there.
This is a pure hunting role: cold calls, first meetings, follow-ups, closed contracts. You own the full cycle start to finish, no handoffs. If you've spent the last 3-5 years on a structured, metrics-driven sales floor and you measure your week in calls made, meetings booked, and deals closed, this is your next step up.
What You'll Do:
- Build your own pipeline from scratch through cold calls and outbound prospecting across the European space market.
- Run the full sales cycle yourself: first touch, qualification, technical discovery, proposal, close.
- Track and hit weekly and monthly activity and revenue targets, the same rhythm you already run today.
- Get in front of customers early and often, calls, site visits, trade shows included.
- Learn the technical side of COPVs on the job. We train you on the product. You bring the hunting instinct.
YOUR PROFILE
- 3-5 years in full-cycle B2B sales, ideally from a structured, quota-driven sales organization.
- A daily habit of outbound activity: calls, outreach, pipeline building, not waiting on inbound leads.
- Competitive drive. You track your numbers because you want to win, not because someone's watching.
- Curiosity about how things are made. No aerospace background required, we teach you the product.
- Fluent English. German is a plus.
WHAT WE OFFER
- Base salary at 60-80% of OTE, uncapped variable on top. You control your upside.
- Short paths, fast decisions, no layers between you and the people who call the shots.
- Real coaching and structure. You always know your number and how you're tracking against it.
- Germany Ticket, EGYM Wellpass, or a tax-free GivveCard, your call.
- Fresh shared lunch every day, different daily, peak team bonding.
