How We Work - AI-First & Data-Driven: We make sure to leverage the latest tech (or build our own) to let our people put their brains to use where they matter most - In control. As a self-financed startup, we make decisions, not investors - Ownership: We own our work, our wins, and our mistakes. It’s how we grow and improve - Excellence: We don't settle for “good enough.” Exceptional is the bar, in everything we do - Transparency: What you see is what you get. Open communication, honest processes, and no surprises - Candour: Bold, honest conversations that inspire new ideas and solve problems About the role We’re looking for a driven, curious, and impact-focused Account Executive to join our growing team. You’ll play a key role in driving revenue growth across mid-market and enterprise accounts by helping organisations automate their ERP processes with AI. At BLP, you’ll take full ownership of the sales cycle - from prospecting and discovery to negotiation and close - and directly shape how the next generation of companies operates. You’ll engage with senior decision-makers (CFOs, CIOs, CPOs, COOs) to uncover challenges, design tailored solutions, and position BLP's platform as a strategic enabler of efficiency and insight. You’ll work closely with marketing, product, and customer success to deliver exceptional value throughout the customer journey. What You'll Own Pipeline creation & territory strategy - Build and execute a territory/account plan: target accounts, stakeholders, sequencing, and multi-threading strategy. - Create net-new pipeline through outbound prospecting, partner motion, events, and customer referrals. - Maintain disciplined pipeline hygiene and forecasting; operate a repeatable, metrics-driven cadence. Insight-led selling & deal shaping - Practice insight selling: challenge the customer's initial framing and introduce a sharper point of view on where value is trapped (exceptions, approvals, master data, controls). - Run executive discovery to uncover operational bottlenecks and decision friction—and translate it into a crisp target-state narrative, urgency, and mutual action plan. - Build internal alignment across CFO/CIO-led buying committees, including champions, economic buyers, IT/security, and process owners. Commercial ownership: value case, negotiation & close - Own the business case, pricing strategy, proposals, negotiation, and contracting. - Quantify and communicate value (capacity release, cycle time reduction, control/compliance improvements, stack simplification) and tie it to executive priorities and budget. - Drive the deal to closure with clear next steps, strong deal governance, and accurate forecasting. Orchestration across presales & delivery - Partner with Solutions Engineers to run workshops/demos and de-risk technical concerns (security, integration, rollout). - Align with Customer Success on implementation readiness, success criteria, and expansion paths. - Ensure clean handoffs from close → kickoff, maintaining continuity of value narrative and outcomes. Competitive positioning - Position BLP against point tools and fragmented stacks (OCR/IDP/workflow/process mining/RPA) with an "end-to-end + exceptions-first" narrative. - Anticipate and neutralize competitive plays with crisp differentiation and proof. What We're Looking For Must-haves - 5–10+ years of enterprise B2B SaaS selling experience (or equivalent complex solution sales), with a consistent track record of hitting/exceeding targets. - Proven ability to run insight-led enterprise sales cycles: you can respectfully push back, quantify impact, and mobilize buying committees. - Strong executive presence with CFO/CIO/Head of Shared Services and comfort navigating enterprise procurement. - Ability to manage complex, multi-threaded deals: mutual action plans, MEDDICC-style qualification, forecasting discipline. - Strong collaboration with presales/SE and post-sales teams; you sell what can be delivered. Strong plus - ERP/SAP exposure (S/4, ECC, Public/Private Cloud) or selling into finance/procurement/shared services transformations. - Experience selling automation platforms (workflow/RPA/process mining/IDP) and winning against incumbents. - Experience with global enterprise rollouts and multi-country stakeholders. Language - Fluent in English and German (or another major European language depending on territory).. You’ll get - A product that wins. BLP's solution consistently outperforms competitors - your job is to open more doors. - Uncapped earnings. High, realistic OTEs with uncapped commission. - Real ownership. Choose annually to take your variable compensation in cash or company shares. - Growth and autonomy. Build your own success path in a rapidly scaling, internationally expanding company. - Continuous learning. Structured onboarding and ongoing coaching to help you excel. - Exceptional team. Join a group of ambitious, collaborative colleagues who push each other to achieve excellence.
