French-Speaking Account Executive - Hybrid in Madrid

Ready to take ownership of the full sales cycle and grow your career with uncapped earning potential? We're looking for a native or bilingual French-speaking Account Executive to join a dynamic sales team in Madrid , focusing on the French market.

About the Role

Join the team as an Account Executive for a leading e-commerce search technology company, managing the full sales cycle for the French market — from initial contact through to closing subscriptions. This hybrid role calls for someone who's comfortable with cold-calling, thrives on outbound prospecting, and is ready to drive growth in a fast-paced, international environment.

Candidates must have the legal right to work in Spain and be willing to relocate to Madrid at their own expense. Please note that relocation support is not provided.

What You'll Do

• Manage the complete sales cycle: initial contact, client meetings, free trial management, and subscription close
• Hand over accounts to the Customer Experience team post-subscription
• Utilize system-assigned leads effectively
• Handle a high volume of calls, approximately 80-100 per day
• Achieve KPIs related to calls, demos, trial-to-paid conversions, and Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) generated

What You Bring

• Native-level or bilingual proficiency in French
• Native or bilingual proficiency in English
• Must already reside in Spain (no relocation support provided)
• 1-6 years of solid commercial experience (BDR, SDR, call center, or outbound prospecting)
• Strong comfort with cold-calling and a KPI/metrics-driven mindset
• Availability aligned with US time zones

Work Schedule

Monday-Thursday, 9:00-18:00; Friday, 9:00-15:00 — flexibility especially valued during client onboarding, with US time zone alignment expected.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Below 80% of target: x1

• Clear internal growth path: AE2 level at €35,000 base, AE3 level at €40,000 base
• Permanent contract
• 22 days of annual leave, plus discretionary days between Dec 24-31
