Account Executive – French Speaking

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential B2B marketplace client seeking an Account Executive with native-level French and strong English. This is a fully remote role based in Germany, ideal for a sales professional who enjoys owning the full customer journey—from demo through contract closure, compliance, and the critical first 90 days of account activation.

In this role, you will convert qualified demonstrations into active, transacting customers. You'll work closely with SDRs and Account Managers in a globally distributed team, ensuring seamless handoffs and a strong customer experience. This is a consultative, results-driven position where ownership, speed, and measurable impact are highly valued.

Responsibilities

• Lead discovery-focused product demonstrations that align the platform's capabilities with each prospect's purchasing workflow and business objectives
• Manage the complete sales cycle: proposal development, commercial negotiation, objection handling, stakeholder alignment, and contract closure
• Build trusted relationships with prospective customers and clearly articulate value around supplier access, competitive pricing, and operational efficiency
• Drive KYC and compliance processes to completion, proactively resolving documentation obstacles without losing momentum
• Own customer activation through the first 90 days, guiding new accounts from initial activity to their first orders and repeat purchasing behavior
• Partner with SDRs for effective pre- and post-demo handoffs, and coordinate with Account Managers to ensure smooth transitions with detailed account context
• Maintain accurate pipeline stages, activity records, and forecasts to support reliable commercial reporting
• Monitor and improve KPIs including demo-to-close conversion, new business revenue, KYC completion time, 90-day activation rates, and forecast accuracy

What We're Looking For

• 3–6 years of proven closing experience in B2B sales, ideally within marketplace, transactional platform, or jewellery/diamond industry environments
• Strong understanding of marketplace dynamics: liquidity, supply breadth, customer trust, transaction mechanics, and the importance of driving initial transactions
• Ability to sell based on customer workflows and business outcomes rather than feature-led presentations
• Excellent discovery, demonstration, negotiation, objection-handling, and closing skills
• Commercial acumen with comfort managing pricing discussions, contractual terms, and multi-stakeholder pushback
• Operational discipline and willingness to own post-sale activities including KYC, compliance, onboarding, and activation
• Effective pipeline management, opportunity prioritization, and accurate forecasting in fast-paced environments
• Customer-focused approach with ability to build credible, long-term relationships across business sizes
• Strong ownership, resilience, adaptability, and attention to detail across multiple concurrent deals
• Native or fluent French and strong English communication skills for international customer and stakeholder interactions
• Comfortable working independently in a globally distributed, low-hierarchy, initiative-driven environment
