German-Speaking Sales Agent (Remote, EU)

About the Company

You will be joining a fast-growing European clean energy company that helps homeowners make the switch to solar, battery storage and heat pump solutions. The company is expanding its network of independent sales partners across Germany and is building a small, focused business development team to drive that growth. This hire sits at the front of that expansion, bringing new partners into the network.

The Role

As a Sales Agent, you will drive the growth of the company’s independent sales partner network across Germany. Your focus is partner acquisition: finding the right self-employed agents, brokers and real estate professionals, opening conversations by phone, and turning interest into committed partnerships.

You’ll be part of a newly formed team, which means early visibility on your results and a real say in how the team’s approach evolves. This role suits a resilient, target-driven communicator who enjoys high-volume outreach, thinks on their feet, and takes pride in clean, consistent follow-up.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify and reach out to self-employed commercial agents, financial and insurance brokers, and real estate professionals through structured outbound campaigns
• Pitch the sales partnership model with clarity and confidence, tailoring each conversation to the prospect’s business
• Handle objections in real time and build trust with independent sales reps, managing directors and sales leaders
• Qualify prospects and move strong-fit partners to the next stage of the partnership pipeline
• Own your monthly activity and conversion targets, managing your pipeline with disciplined follow-up
• Keep the CRM accurate and up to date with call outcomes, pipeline stages and next steps
• Feed market insights and objection patterns back to the team to sharpen messaging and targeting
• Follow data protection, compliance and call guidelines at all times

Ideal Candidate

• Fluent German, as all partner conversations are conducted in German
• Proven outbound sales or business development experience, ideally in B2B phone acquisition or partner acquisition
• Available during core hours, Monday to Friday, 9:00–17:00 CET
• Based in an EU member state, as this role is only open to candidates residing within the European Union
• Confident building rapport with independent sales reps, managing directors and sales leaders over the phone
• Strong objection handling and a consistent, disciplined approach to follow-up
• Comfortable with structured CRM documentation and holds a high standard of data quality
• Driven and resilient: motivated by targets and bounces back quickly from a “no”

Nice to Have

• Background in financial services, insurance, real estate, mortgage financing, energy or telecommunications
• Experience as a B2B SDR, Inside Sales Representative or outbound acquisition specialist
• Experience in partner or affiliate acquisition
• Exposure to broker pools, structured sales or field sales recruiting
