• • *Your Role: A Strategic Opportunity in a High-Growth Environment**
• • The Sales team at Ravio serves as the crucial first point of human contact for our clients, a responsibility we take very seriously. Our approach is deeply customer-centric, prioritizing education and insightful guidance over aggressive sales tactics. We aim to be partners, collaborating with organizations to understand their unique challenges and steer them towards more intelligent, modern compensation strategies. In this pivotal Account Executive role, you will be entrusted with the complete ownership and strategic development of the DACH region – one of Ravio’s most vital markets. Germany already represents our second-largest market in terms of revenue and client size, underscoring the immense potential and strategic importance of this territory. This is a unique chance to truly own a market, defining regional strategies, cultivating a robust market presence, and establishing yourself as the authoritative voice and trusted face of Ravio across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. This position is fully remote within Germany, requiring a high degree of self-discipline, independence, and a genuine enthusiasm for autonomous work.

• • **Driving Revenue Growth:** Consistently meet and exceed ambitious sales targets for the DACH region, directly contributing to Ravio's overall revenue growth and market leadership.
• • We are seeking an individual who is not only driven and self-motivated but also genuinely people-oriented. You should possess a sharp commercial acumen combined with high emotional intelligence, enabling you to build rapport and credibility with a diverse range of stakeholders, from emerging HR leaders to seasoned C-suite executives. Thriving in an environment that emphasizes ownership, you will be expected to deliver results independently and possess a knack for transforming ambiguity into strategic opportunities. While prior SaaS sales experience or a deep understanding of the compensation landscape is a significant advantage, your innate curiosity, unwavering drive, and ambition are paramount. If the prospect of owning a region, building a market from the ground up, and contributing to the scaling of a category-defining company with global aspirations excites you, we eagerly await your application.
