Account Executive — German Speaker

bookaball is a fast-growing sports tech company from Amsterdam, transforming how padel and racket sports clubs manage and grow their business.

Our white-label Saa S platform helps clubs manage bookings, memberships, payments, player engagement, and retention — all within their own branded ecosystem.

We give clubs the tools to own their customer journey, increase repeat bookings, and build loyal communities, without becoming dependent on marketplace models.

Since our founding in 2022, we have grown rapidly across Europe and are now expanding further into the DACH region.

To support that growth, we are looking for a driven German-speaking Account Executive to help us build, qualify, and close a strong pipeline of racket sport clubs.

You will be responsible for identifying new opportunities, qualifying prospects, running sales conversations, and closing new customers.

This is a hands‑on commercial role for someone who enjoys outbound sales, building relationships, and taking ownership in a fast-moving scale‑up environment.
