Senior Account Executive Benelux

As a Senior Account Executive, you'll hit the ground running closing deals with companies throughout the Benelux market.

You'll own deals in the upper SMB segment from day one, while building towards mid-market responsibility within 12 months.

This role is designed for a Senior AE who thrives in high-ownership environments: someone who can generate pipeline when inbound is insufficient, manage complex sales cycles (including multi-product deals, RFPs and tenders), and contribute to a predictable, high-quality revenue engine.

You will be a key pillar in ensuring business continuity and future segment coverage as the team scales.

In this role, you'll:

• Own and drive a high-quality sales pipeline from qualification to close.
• Run full-cycle sales processes including discovery, demos, validation, proposal, negotiation, and closing , with a strong focus on deal progression and win-rate.
• Actively build and maintain your own pipeline through outbound prospecting when inbound lead flow is insufficient.
• Lead complex sales cycles, including multi-stakeholder buying committees, procurement, legal negotiations, and RFPs/tenders.
• Sell the full Tellent offering (Tellent Recruitee, TellentHR, and add-ons), tailoring solutions to customer needs and business context.
• Maintain strong CRM discipline, forecast accuracy, and deal hygiene in line with team standards.
• Collaborate closely with Sales Leadership, Marketing, Product Marketing, Legal, and Partners to win competitive deals.
• Share structured feedback and market insights to continuously improve positioning, product, and go-to-market execution.

You'll bring to the team:

• Solid experience in full-cycle B2B SaaS/Software sales.
• Proven success selling into SMB and/or mid-market organizations.
• Proven ability to be successful in both inbound and outbound deal conversion.
• A structured, disciplined approach to sales, with strong qualification, deal management, and forecasting skills.
• Ability to sell value-based into a broader customer audience, multi-product solutions and tailor messaging to different customer needs.
• Experience at a scale-up or in a fast-moving environment.
• Ambition to grow into broader segment ownership and increased deal complexity over time.
