About this role
Junior Account Executive DACH (German-speaking) Location: Remote (Within +/- 2 hours of CET) Contract type: Full-time Salary: Starting from €40,000 OTE per annum gross (60% base / 40% bonus), subject to location, skills and experience Not Your Typical Workplace: Great talent doesn't stop at borders, and neither do the companies we work with.
At WorkMotion, we're building the future of work: helping ambitious companies hire, onboard and manage the best people anywhere in the world, through smart, flexible workforce solutions. Remote-first, fast-paced, people-driven and globally connected, we empower businesses to build teams beyond borders. And we're looking for people who want to win while doing it.
More Than a Role The German market is full of ambitious companies trapped by hiring borders. A Munich scale-up has found the perfect engineer in Lisbon but doesn't know how to employ her compliantly. A Hamburg founder wants to put fresh funding into expanding to three countries by next quarter.
As our Junior Account Executive Germany, your mission is powerful: Open up the world's talent pool to German companies. This is a Junior AE role, built for a top-performer who's ready to close their own deals, not by pushing a product, but by advising with substance and closing with confidence.
You're confident in front of decision-makers, curious enough to ask the questions others don't, and ambitious about your numbers: hitting target is the minimum, outperforming it is what drives you. Your energy shows in your can-do attitude and follow-through, day in, day out.
Where Responsibility Meets Real Opportunity:Command Your Territory: Own the full sales cycle in Germany, from first conversation to onboarded talent. Curious Questioner: Ask the second and third question. Uncover where, why and how fast a company is hiring, and what's at stake if compliance goes wrong.
Champion Builder: Equip your HR champion with the arguments Finance, Legal and leadership care about, so decision-make
