Senior Sales Associate
Permanent
The opportunity
This is a founding commercial hire. You will report directly to our CEO with no sales layer above you, and you will own Omnisent’s route into the German government and defence market end-to-end.
Defence sales do not work like commercial SaaS. Tenders and programmes of record are published, and behind each one sits a dense, opaque network of stakeholders across multiple departments. Your job is to work out who genuinely decides, find a way to reach them, and put Omnisent in front of them in person — then carry that relationship through demonstration, technical evaluation and negotiation to a signed contract.
What you will do
Own the full sales cycle: identify and generate opportunities, build the route in, and drive through to close.
Map and navigate the stakeholder networks behind German government tenders and programmes of record, and identify the real decision makers within them.
Secure and run in-person meetings with those decision makers — this is a face-to-face, on-the-road role, not a desk role.
Coordinate technical demonstrations and evaluation sessions with our engineering team and manage the customer through that process.
Lead commercial negotiations through to contract, working closely with the CEO.
Represent Omnisent credibly in a sector where credibility is everything.
Feed market intelligence back into product and strategy as we expand into the Gulf region and the United States.
What we are looking for
Essential
Experience in defence sales, with a demonstrable record of navigating government or military procurement.
The ability to run a complex, multi-stakeholder sales process independently, from first contact to signature.
German at native level.
Willingness and ability to travel at least 75–80% of the time, and to sustain a high-intensity operating rhythm: this is an early-stage defence company, and the working pattern is roughly twelve hours a day, five days a week.
Comfort with the defence sector and a considered view of what our technology is for.
Based in, or willing to relocate to, Munich/Berlin.
