Role Overview

Join become.1 GmbH as a Business Development Representative (BDR) where you will play a pivotal role as the frontline of sales.

Candidate Profile

• Proven sales aptitude, with prior experience in telesales or business development within B2B or SaaS sectors.
• Strong communication skills, able to think quickly and positively engage prospects during calls.
• Driven and resilient mindset focused on exceeding targets; rejection motivates rather than deters.
• Fluent German language skills at native level (C1/C2), essential for high-level decision-maker engagement in the DACH region.
• Beneficial but not mandatory: possession of a trade license under §34d Abs. 1 GewO.
