Sales development Representative – Outbound (w/m/d)

Hey there, thanks for stopping by!

Are you ready to power the world’s best businesses? Lightspeed is looking for a self-motivated, high-energy Sales Development Representative to join our team in Berlin.

As an SDR, you are the engine of our growth. You’ll be the first point of contact for restaurants, bars, and hotels across the German market, educating prospects on how our cloud-based hospitality platform can transform their daily operations. If you love the thrill of the hunt, enjoy building relationships over the phone, and want to kickstart your career in a global SaaS leader, this is for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

• The Research: Identify and qualify potential clients within the German hospitality sector (from Michelin-star restaurants to local favorites).

• The Outreach: Use your consultative phone skills to connect with decision-makers in the hospitality industry, overcome objections, and inspire them to see what’s possible with Lightspeed.

• The CRM: Maintain clean and accurate data in Salesforce to ensure our sales pipeline is predictable and high-quality.

• The Collaboration: Work closely with Account Executives to transition leads and help close deals.

• The Vibe: Bring positive energy and a “hunter” mindset to the office every single day.

About You

• Language Skills: You are fluent in German and have a professional command of English.

• The Drive: You are a self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, international environment.

• Phone Persona: You’re not afraid of “cold calling.” You have a proven track record of meeting (or crushing) outbound activity targets.

• Tech-Savvy: You’re comfortable with technology and can juggle multiple tools (Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, etc.) without breaking a sweat.

• Detail-Oriented: You have excellent follow-up skills and never let a lead fall through the cracks.

Come live the Lightspeed Experience…

Working at Lightspeed means being part of a team that values innovation and growth. Here is what we offer:

• Lightspeed Equity Scheme: We are all owners—you will receive stock options as part of your package.

• Competitive Salary: A fair package consisting of a solid base salary and uncapped commission.

• Health & Wellness Credit: Expense up to 400 EUR per year towards your gym membership, yoga classes, a new bike, or whatever else keeps you healthy.

• Mental Health Support: Free access to Modern Health for meditation, coaching, or counseling whenever you need it.

• People Experience (Work from Anywhere): Our PX benefit allows you to work from pretty much anywhere in the world for 60 days a year.
