Strategic Account Executive, DACH (Paris or London) About Maki Maki is the worlds #1 AI Hiring tool and helps the world's largest companies hire the best people, fast. Nespresso, H&M, Deloitte and other global enterprises use Maki to screen, assess and amplify candidate engagement. Recruiters waste less time, candidates get a better experience, and companies get the best talent, that actually stay. Customers have cut time to hire by up to 45% and a large portion of our business comes from references directly in from customers, the same customers who rank Maki a High Performer 4.7 out of 5 on G2. Why now Enterprises cannot hire fast enough, and AI has made it worse: application volumes are higher than ever, and CVs tell you less. HR has been one of the slowest functions to adopt AI, and now it is pushing hard. Talent leaders know their legacy process hurts candidates, cost and revenue. A store that runs short of staff loses sales every hour it is short. Maki solves that. Maki is at an inflection point. Partners and customers recognise the quality of what we build. Now is the time where Maki goes global to meet the demand the market is putting on us. The role You build the strategy that lands the largest enterprise logos in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and build them into multi-year high growth accounts. You partner with a pod that comprises of a BDR, a forward deployed engineer and a customer success account manager. You bring the buyer a point of view, build the business case with them, and leave every signature with an account plan to grow the account for years. If you want large inbound enterprises that are ready to work with an expert, strategic rep, this is for you. If you want the chance to earn the most you ever have in your sales career, this is for you.

What you bring • Minimum 6+ years in sales, including 3+ years selling to enterprises in the DACH region. • Fluent German and professional English. • A strategic sales background: you have landed large logos and worked with many stakeholders at once. • Numerous closed six-figure deals you can walk us through in detail. • Points of view and business cases that executives acted on. • You use AI tools in your daily sales work. How we work We are an early team, during these early days these are the traits we demand in every single person: • Grit: you go big on accounts and keep going when a deal gets hard. • Candor: you give direct feedback, you want it back, and you act on it. • Curiosity: you crave learning and you want to build. • Ambition: you are ambitious about your own potential and the power of what Maki can do. What we offer • A competitive compensation that leads the market • Inbound and outbound enterprise demand, and a pod partner with to scale it. • Equity • The best Sales and AI tools • Based in our Paris office, with travel across Germany, Austria and Switzerland Our process • A short interview on Mochi, our AI interviewer, so you try the product yourself.

Bring one large strategic deal that you led and closed in the last 12 months. No slides.
