More Than a Role The Swiss market is full of ambitious companies trapped by hiring borders. A Zurich scale-up has found the perfect engineer in Lisbon but doesn't know how to employ her compliantly. A Basel founder wants to put fresh funding into expanding to three countries by next quarter. As our Account Executive Switzerland, your mission is powerful: Open up the world's talent pool to Swiss companies. This role is built for an AE who already knows how to close and is ready to take full ownership of their deals. You win by advising with substance, not by pushing a product.

Discovery & Qualification: You run sharp discovery and qualify with a methodology such as MEDDICC, so you know early which deals are real. Outbound DNA: A cold call is a chance, not a threat. You know how to get a busy founder's attention, from a well-timed call after a funding round to a voice note they actually listen to. AI-Savvy & Organized: AI is a natural part of how you work, making you faster and sharper every day. And your HubSpot (or similar CRM) is always up to date. Coachable: You ask for feedback and put it into action the same day. Swiss German Native: Native Swiss German and business-fluent English.
