Introduction

Ideals has been in the Virtual Data Room space since 2008 and has built a trusted reputation with clients across multiple industries in Europe, including Orcan Energy, E-Gruppe, Deloitte, and EY.

To support the rapid expansion of the Ideals VDR line of business in Germany we are looking for an **Enterprise** **Account Executive (Key Accounts) ** in **Munich** to focus on our Corporate segment. Unlike our advisory-focused motions, you will sell directly to a wide variety of enterprise corporations across diverse industries (such as energy, pharma, biotech, and telecommunications).

As a quota-carrying strategic seller, your primary goal will be to grow sales and revenue through the acquisition of new strategic enterprise accounts and the expansion of existing ones. You will act as an impactful industry expert, generating demand, navigating complex 6 to 9-month sales cycles, and displacing incumbents by utilizing deep discovery and consultative selling frameworks.

Tasks

  • Proactively build and manage a pipeline focused on the acquisition of new strategic enterprise accounts (new logos)
  • Conduct solution-based sales engagements, including client meetings, executive presentations, and product demonstrations (face-to-face and virtual)
  • Maintain "White Space" analysis and execute strategic initiatives to upsell and cross-sell within the existing customer base
  • Develop and deliver comprehensive business cases that quantify the cost of inaction and address customer priorities, pain points, and ROI
  • Structure, negotiate, and close complex deals, guiding corporate clients step-by-step through enterprise procurement, security compliance, and legal processes
  • Orchestrate multi-threading strategies to navigate enterprise politics, establishing strong relationships with C-Suite executives and key stakeholders across various verticals
  • Keep an accurate track record of personal sales activities in the CRM, including methodical mid- and long-term forecasting
  • Provide relevant customer feedback to the product development team and collaborate with Customer Success, Marketing, and Inbound Sales to maximize revenue and customer satisfaction

Requirements

  • 4–7 years of demonstrable quota-carrying success in B2B sales
  • Proven track record of managing lengthy or complex enterprise sales cycles
  • Significant experience selling directly to C-level executives (CxOs) and multi-threading within large enterprise organizations
  • Clear understanding of, and practical experience with, consultative sales methodologies (e.g., MEDDIC/MEDPIC, SPIN, Challenger)
  • 4-year university degree (bachelor's)
  • Exceptional business communication skills, enabling you to execute executive storytelling, challenge the status quo, and handle complex contracting negotiations
  • High learning agility, analytical thinking, and commercial curiosity to quickly grasp the nuances of various corporate industries
  • High AI fluency and advanced CRM tracking skills
  • Native-level proficiency in German with professional English level (C1+)
  • Fluency in an additional language
  • Background in SaaS, financial technology, or information security sectors
  • Familiarity with enterprise M&A use cases and corporate compliance workflows

Benefits
