Field Sales Representative/ Account Manager – Randstad & Midden Nederland

Responsibilities

You will be the ensuring our “sell-side” pipeline is constantly widening and that bike offering on BikeFair is seemingly endlessly growing. More specifically, you will be:

• Expanding the network of partnering shops and sellers in the region of central Netherlands – from finding potential partners through managing the regional sales pipeline to onboarding newly acquired partners,
• Digitizing bicycle offering of the partnering bike shops – taking pictures of the offered bicycles, managing freshness of stock, communicating regarding orders and related matters,
• Managing relationships within your partner network – assisting the partners in using BikeFair and increasing their engagement,
• Creating sales materials, mediating disputes, introducing new features,
• Collecting insights and filling innovation pipeline for our dev team,
• Potentially leading a small team of sales representatives.

Why should you consider

• Dynamic, ambitious team with a purpose-driven mindset: you’ll directly and measurably contribute to the world’s sustainable future.
• Ownership of your work in all senses of the word: you will get a share in the company via our stock options plan and will be able to see your specific role in the company’s development.
• Unusual professional freedom and space to implement own ideas and initiatives.
• Competitive starting salary,
• Contribution for professional development and regular team fun activities (we’re open to all ideas on this front, too!).

And, of course, a bike for personal use. 🚲

About you

As per your character:

• You’re a natural leader,
• You are competitive, seemingly tireless winner.
• You’re the master of word and enjoy talking to people,
• You’re outgoing yet structured: able to keep track of communication, goals and results.
• You are self-driven and able to prioritize – you don’t often require to be told what to do, yet are able to deliver and ask for advice or help if needed,
• You are able to manage your time – we do not count hours worked and don’t necessarily distinguish a Tuesday from a Sunday, as long as you own your responsibilities.
• You thrive in dynamic environment or even uncertainty, enjoy travelling and are able to work on the go.

Regarding your skills and experience, you:

• Understand trends in technology and are able to grasp the basic terminology,
• Have 2+ years experience in sales, ideally within a startup environment (proactive fast-learning personality can compensate for that, though)
• Have a driver’s licence category B (automobiles)
• Are fluent in both Dutch and English,
• Live in the Randstad or central Netherlands in general,
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent is a plus,
• Bonus points for advanced photo skills!

As a bike start-up, we also seek:

• ‘MacGyver mindset’ – what can YOU do with only a paperclip?
• Discipline of Captain America – are you able to master your own will?
• Inner motivation of Nikola Tesla – there’s more to life than piling cash. What gets you up from the bed every day?
• Unhealthy affection for bikes – owning three or more bikes is a must!
• Slightly weird sense of humour. The line above is a joke, of course. Well, partly... :)
