Account Executive (B2B SaaS Startup)

At Superchat, we're rebuilding how businesses talk to their customers. The phone call, the contact form, the support ticket: all of it is being replaced by messaging and AI. We're building the platform that runs underneath. Founded in 2020, Superchat has become the platform of choice for 10,000+ businesses worldwide, from globally recognized brands like Allianz, Auto1, Enpal, Danone, and GASAG to the small businesses, dental practices, and one-person startups that need to look bigger than they are. Today, millions of messages flow through Superchat every single day. We started as a unified inbox: one place for every channel a customer might pick, WhatsApp, email, SMS, Instagram. Then ChatGPT happened, and the second chapter began: AI agents that respond across chat, email, and voice at the quality of the best human teams. We're 100 people, profitable, and have raised €18M in funding (last round 4.5 years ago, we've been growing on our own money since). Headquartered in Berlin. WHO WE WANT Senior commercial leader. You bring 7+ years in B2B SaaS, with significant time at the Head of / Director or VP level leading revenue-generating organizations at meaningful scale. Has unified a revenue organization. You have brought commercial functions - Sales, Partner, Marketing alignment, RevOps, and Customer Success - into one coherent revenue engine, and you understand how the parts compound when run as a system rather than silos.

Strategic and data-driven operator. You translate company-level objectives into quarterly targets, sales motions, and team-level priorities. You run the organization against the numbers, not against opinions. SMB to Mid-Market fluency. You understand the economics, motion, and team dynamics of selling to SMB and Mid-Market customers, and know how to balance velocity with deal quality. High standards, low ego.

A good working understanding of German is welcome, but not a requirement. WHO WE DON'T WANT Strong operator without strategic range. You execute well on a defined plan, but have not yet led at the level of org design, headcount strategy, and cross-functional revenue planning. Single-function thinker. You think strictly in sales metrics and have not worked closely with Marketing, RevOps, and Customer Success as one revenue system with shared targets and shared accountability.
