Sales Manager

Job Description

About us
Since 2015, transporters in the Netherlands have been getting more out of their fleets thanks to Route42's smart technology. 'Fueled by data, driven by intelligence' is our motto. We are a high-tech SAAS scale up from Breda and make transport companies ready for the future. A future in which data and technology are crucial for driving sustainably, efficiently, and safely.

The young and ambitious team of Route42 consists of around 15 people with varying experience and backgrounds. But what they all have in common is passion. Passion to make a difference. Passion to be innovative in a traditional market. Passion to move themselves, Route42 and the customer forward.

What do you do as a Sales Manager?
In 2 words: make deals! As a Sales Manager, you are responsible for the commercial growth of Route42. This growth is achieved by binding new customers to Route42. You approach interesting companies yourself (cold and inbound leads), match the challenges within the company with the solution offered by Route42 and, together with the customer, formulate a business case in order to close the deal. It often starts with a trial process that is supervised by your Customer Success colleague, but you remain closely involved to achieve the conversion and ultimately get the customer to make more use of our services.

We are looking for a Sales Manager with ambition, who first proves himself able to sell our products and to realise his target (or preferably over performed of course!). Primary market area will be the Benelux. Subsequently, the sales team will expand rapidly and you will take the lead in building and guiding the team, but also set a good example by achieving your own targets (lead by example).

In short, a broad position with plenty of opportunities for further development.

Job Requirements

What to bring?

• A winning mentality that allows you to exceed your targets.
• You are a driven sales hunter (new business), but understand the importance of a long-term customer relationship, so you stay involved with new customers so that you can also be at the forefront when there are opportunities to expand our services.
• You are analytical, strategic and data-driven.
• You have proven experience selling SaaS products, 3-5 years. You enjoy closing deals yourself, but also have the ambition to grow in the long term. A network in logistics is a plus.
• You are result-oriented and an agreement is really an agreement to you. You live up to it.
• You are communicative (Dutch and English) and not afraid to pick up the phone, you have guts and take action before someone asks you to. You listen well and ask questions when necessary.
• You have a good dose of curiosity and perseverance and have the urge to continuously improve yourself.

What we have to offer?

• Front row seat at a fast growing tech startup.
• A top team of bright minds and great customers.
• The opportunity to make your mark on the further growth of Route42.
• Great opportunities for growth.
• Pleasant company lunch with the tastiest tosti's.
