Account executive, enterprise, DACH

We’re looking for our a Berlin-based Enterprise Account Executive to bring Watershed to more companies in DACH. We’re at an inflection point: every large company is launching a sustainability program as pressure for action builds every day. You’ll do whatever it takes to get those companies on Watershed and help them be effective. As a founding member of our Berlin-based go-to-market organisation, you’ll help build the sales playbook, shape Watershed’s product and help us build a stellar team.

You will:

• Be a founding Enterprise Account Executive for our new Berlin office!
• Sell Watershed. Find your way to the right people at leading DAX companies, educate them about effective climate programs, and help them succeed with Watershed. You’ll own the full lifecycle, from first outbound to contract signature.
• Develop the Watershed sales playbook for winning lighthouse logos —what’s the best messaging? How do we triangulate through the org? What tools do we need?—into a repeatable machine.
• Take Watershed into new market segments.
• Shape Watershed’s product strategy by sharing feedback from customers on the front line.
• Become an expert in climate, and educate companies on how they should navigate the world of carbon reduction targets, clean energy, and decarbonising their supply chain.
• Help build the sales team.

You might be a fit if you have:

• 5+ years of relevant account executive quota carrying experience in a SaaS organization
• A track record of sales excellence, especially with enterprise customers (1,000-10,000 employees) at an executive level. 
• Have experience prospecting new business in a new territory, specifically, DACH.
• Are excited to lead from zero to one. You love to build things from scratch—new playbooks for navigating organizations and ways to tell the Watershed story.
• Are an excellent consultative seller. You listen deeply to customers and excel by helping them solve their problems.
• Love going deep on new domains. You’ve sold products in complex or technical fields, and relish becoming an expert on your subject matter. You’re voraciously curious. You’re excited to learn everything about climate and help companies navigate this space.
• Have a track record of doing whatever it takes to get things done. You’ve accomplished things that others thought were impossible. You’re relentlessly resourceful.
• Want to join a startup, take responsibility for the fate of the company, and move fast.
• Are an exceptional communicator.
• Native German speaker, bilingual in English.
