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.
