KEY ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE
EU GTM | Berlin, Germany
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE TEAM
SumUp's Sales team in Germany is growing — and we're looking for a Key Account Executive in Berlin to help us deepen relationships
with small businesses while continuing to win new ones. You'll be part of a high-performing, collaborative team that combines the
consultative mindset of account management with the drive of outbound sales. Our merchants are at the heart of everything we do,
and your job is to make sure they get the most out of SumUp — while identifying opportunities to grow the partnership. If you're
someone who builds trust easily, loves variety in your day, and thrives on results, you'll fit right in.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT YOU'LL DO
* Manage and grow a portfolio of existing small business accounts, acting as their primary point of contact and trusted advisor
* Proactively identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities within your account base, matching merchants with additional SumUp
products and solutions
* Hunt for new business by identifying and approaching prospective SMB merchants through outbound activity — calls, emails, and
local networking
* Deliver a consultative sales experience that prioritises understanding the merchant's business before recommending solutions
* Own your full sales cycle — from first contact or account review through to close and handover
* Maintain accurate and up-to-date records in CRM, tracking pipeline, activity, and revenue performance
* Meet and exceed monthly targets across both retention/expansion and new business acquisition
* Collaborate with onboarding, customer success, and product teams to ensure merchants are set up for long-term success
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOU'LL BE GREAT FOR THIS ROLE IF…
* You have proven experience in an account management, sales, or customer-facing role — ideally with SMB or B2B clients
* You're equally comfortable managing existing relationships and going after new business — you see both as opportunities
* You're a natural communicator who can adapt your style depending on whether you're building rapport with a new prospect or
deepening a relationship with an existing merchant
* You're organised, proactive, and able to manage a diverse portfolio of accounts without losing sight of your targets
* You take ownership of your numbers and know how to prioritise your time to hit them consistently
* You speak German fluently and have a working level of English for internal communication
