The Opportunity

A leading international technology company is looking for a results-driven Account Executive to join its growing sales team in Madrid.

This is a full-cycle sales position where you'll manage the customer journey from initial contact through client meetings, product demonstrations, free-trial management and ultimately closing new subscriptions.

If you're comfortable with cold calling, ambitious sales targets and a performance-driven environment, this is an excellent opportunity to grow your sales career with strong earning potential.

What You'll Do

• Manage the full sales cycle from initial contact to subscription close
• Make approximately 80–100 outbound calls per day
• Qualify prospects and identify their business needs
• Conduct client meetings and product demonstrations
• Guide prospects throughout their free-trial period
• Convert free trials into paying customers
• Achieve monthly and quarterly sales targets
• Track KPIs including calls, demos, trial-to-paid conversion and MRR
• Maintain accurate CRM and pipeline activity
• Ensure a smooth handover to the Customer Experience team

Leads are automatically assigned, allowing you to focus on prospecting, selling and closing.
