ReachPlayers is looking for a Head of Sales, DACH to build and scale our direct-to-brand business across the region, with Germany as the primary market.
This is a senior commercial role for someone who knows how to open doors with major brands, create new enterprise opportunities, and turn relationships into meaningful revenue.
We are not looking for someone to inherit a mature pipeline.
We are looking for someone who can build the market.
The Mission
Build ReachPlayers’ direct brand business across DACH into a predictable and scalable revenue engine.
You will own the commercial motion end-to-end: identifying priority accounts, opening relationships with senior brand decision-makers, building pipeline, closing new business, expanding successful customers, and helping establish ReachPlayers as a leading gaming media partner for brands across the region.

- Generate senior-level meetings and new opportunities
- Build long-term relationships beyond individual campaigns
- Develop a strong network across the German marketing ecosystem
Generate New Brand Revenue
You will own new business from first conversation through close.
- Prospecting and pipeline development
- Qualifying enterprise opportunities
- Building commercial proposals
- Structuring pilot campaigns
- Negotiating and closing deals
- Expanding successful customers
- Building repeat and recurring revenue
Build the DACH Sales Motion
This is not only about closing individual deals.

- Objection handling
- Pipeline management
- Forecasting
- Local market positioning
You will work closely with Marketing, Creative, Product, and leadership to make ReachPlayers easier for enterprise brands to understand and buy.

You’ll help us understand:
- What enterprise buyers need
- Why brands hesitate to enter gaming
