Head of Sales (m/f/d) | Energy Storage Scale-up | BESS
Batteries are becoming the backbone of the energy transition. Our client brings them to market.
On behalf of a venture-backed energy infrastructure company in Munich, we are looking for their first Head of Sales. Our client connects battery energy storage systems (BESS), wind and solar to European grid balancing and wholesale markets, from on-site integration to live market participation. The product is already live with some of Germany’s largest BESS assets, and the market pull is strong.
The founders have taken the company from zero to one. You take it from one to N: you lead the key deals yourself, shape the commercial strategy and build the team the way you think the market needs it. Direct line to the CEO, full ownership.
Your responsibilities
- Key Accounts: Lead the most important deals and partnerships personally
- Go-to-Market: Shape commercial strategy, pricing and marketing together with the founders
- Team Building: Hire and lead your own commercial team
- Market Feedback: Translate customer insight into product and positioning
- Visibility: Represent the company at industry events, on LinkedIn and across the ecosystem
Your profile
- Solid experience in B2B sales or business development with larger, complex deals
- Startup or scale-up experience and an entrepreneurial mindset
- Credibility with senior decision-makers at energy companies and investors
- Strategic thinker who still enjoys getting hands-on
- Fluent German and English
- A plus: experience in energy, BESS or flexibility markets
Different backgrounds welcome
If you come from finance, for example from a fund investing in renewables or BESS, and have worked with energy startups, you bring exactly the perspective our client’s customers value.
Why this role
- First commercial leader with real ownership from day one
- A product the market already needs, in one of the fastest-growing parts of the energy transition
- A team of 18 today, growing to 30+, with commercial at its core
- Freedom to build your own team and playbook
- Attractive package with fixed salary, variable component and equity (VSOP)
- Lean, tech-first and close-knit team, office-first in Munich
