You actively contribute your sales experience and market insights to help further develop our processes and offerings.
You work with HubSpot (CRM), Notion, OpenAI, and standard MS Office tools – ensuring clean pipeline management and fast collaboration.

Digital Sales: Experienced with CRM (HubSpot), digital sales tools, and a data-/AI-driven approach to work.
Languages: German (C1/C2) for customer communication, English (>B2) for team collaboration.
