The job

What you'd do
Help aviation and logistics companies get real value from Celonis, from first demo to renewal. You'll build business cases, run workshops and present results to top executives, all in German.
What you'd sell

Software that shows AI how a company's work really flows

When a retailer tracks orders, stock, and sales, each step usually lives in its own system. The problem is, no one can see how the work flows from start to finish, so AI tools only see one piece of it. Celonis maps how work really moves across all those systems, so AI understands the whole process before it acts.

The Braun Read

Proceed with caution

A few things here deserve a hard look before you spend time on it.

Pay
No pay listed at all.
Transparency
Says nothing about quota, attainment, deal size, territory or sales cycle.
Time on market
Open 25 days. Normal, but not fresh.
Company hiring
42 sales roles open, hiring at a steady pace. Ask how many reps they hired last year and how many are still there.

Red lights

Yellow lights

  • German required. The posting asks for fluent German. Worth knowing before you apply if you only sell in English.
  • Same role posted many times. The company has 8 or more open postings with this exact title. Could be a big build-out, could be a revolving door. Ask how many reps they hired last year and how many are still there.

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    How many reps are you hiring for this, and how many from last year's class are still here?

    Hiring a lot can mean growth, or people leaving.

  2. 2.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  3. 3.

    What are the base and the OTE for this role?

    No point investing hours before you know the number.

  4. 4.

    Who's the economic buyer, and who else is in the deal?

    Selling to a CFO and selling to a developer are different jobs.

  5. 5.

    What's the annual quota, and how was it set?

    A quota built from real data is a target. Otherwise it's a hope.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

› When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.
