Country Manager Spain

About the Role

syte is an innovative and rapidly expanding AI-driven geo-intelligence platform that redefines real estate decision-making processes. Founded in 2021 in Münster, Germany, the team is now over 35 employees strong, servicing more than 200 clients across the DACH region, including project developers, asset and investment managers, brokers, banks, and local authorities. The platform analyzes over 62 million land parcels and 55 million buildings in real-time, providing insights within minutes that traditionally took weeks through consultancy. Awarded the German AI Award and named PropTech of the Year, syte aims to expand into Spain in 2026.

As the first syte representative in Spain, based in Madrid, the Country Manager will embody the brand locally and serve as a trusted voice in all customer, partner, and industry conversations. The Spanish market is highly relationship-driven, and the role demands adapting to fragmented municipal regulations, LIDAR-based 3D modeling, and region-specific planning systems. The position offers the highest entrepreneurial autonomy within syte for 2026, responsible for implementing the success plan for the Spanish market.
