About this role
About Staffbase
We inspire people to achieve great things together. Our mission is to help organizations unlock the power of inspirational communication with the first AI-native Employee Experience Platform. Our industry-leading and award-winning agentic AI communications channels - intranet, employee app and email solutions - create engaging experiences that connect and empower employees.
Headquartered in Chemnitz, Germany and New York City, with offices in Berlin, London, Sydney, Tokyo, Prague, and Minneapolis–St. Paul, our diverse team of 550+ employees supports 1,500+ customers—reaching over 14 million employees—in transforming their employee experience.

If you’re energized by juggling multiple deals at once, creating urgency, and relentlessly pushing toward five-to-six-figure ARR, we want to talk to you.
This role can be filled remote within Germany, or in one of our Germany based office locations (Chemnitz, Berlin, Munich, Cologne, Leipzig, Dresden).
