As a Senior New Business Sales professional at Youwe, you are directly responsible for driving our growth and realising our new business revenue targets in the international digital agency market. You take over qualified opportunities from Business Development, guide Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs) through the full sales cycle, and turn them into profitable, long-term partnerships.
You combine commercial drive with a consultative mindset: you build trust with sharp discovery, well-structured pitches, and a methodical, result-oriented way of working. Your role goes beyond closing the deal; you act as a strategic partner for our customers and align their digital ambitions with Youwe’s services, so their business – and our relationship – can grow.
Your Role
In The Context Of Our Growing Agency, You Will
* Lead Conversion & Deal Closing
* Take full ownership of SQLs and convert them into closed-won deals, balancing customer value and Youwe’s commercial interests. You are responsible for your own annual new business target and a predictable pipeline.
* Architect Digital Solutions Translate complex customer needs into realistic digital roadmaps and clear proposals across Youwe’s portfolio (e.g. commerce, DXP, data & CX). You present these to multi-stakeholder DMUs and are comfortable operating at C-level.
* Strategic Pitching Lead the creation of compelling presentations and proposals. You know when to involve specialists (strategy, tech, marketing) and how to orchestrate a winning pitch team.
* Deep Discovery & Research Conduct a thorough discovery into the customer’s business model, challenges and digital maturity. You use this to position Youwe’s existing and new services and to qualify opportunities rigorously.
* Autonomous Management Operate with a high degree of autonomy and ownership across the full sales cycle: from qualification and scoping to negotiation and closing, including more complex and non-standard deals.
* Process Excellence Work in a structured way with our standard tools and processes (e.g. CRM, pipeline reviews, forecasting), and actively suggest improvements that increase win-rate, efficiency and customer experience.
* Relationship Building & Handover Build a strong foundation for long-term client relationships by making clear, realistic promises in the sales phase and ensuring a smooth handover to delivery, so scope, budget and expectations stay aligned.
Who You Are
* Experience You have 5+ years of experience in new business sales or business development in a digital agency or IT professional services environment, working with multi-stakeholder B2B deals.
* Analytical Problem Solver You quickly get to the essence of a customer’s situation, break problems down into manageable components and translate them into concrete solutions and next steps.
* Result-Oriented You are persistent, competitive in a healthy way and steer your daily priorities towards exceeding targets and improving your win rate.
* Market Savvy You are up to date on trends, platforms and regulations in the digital space and know how to use this knowledge in conversations with prospects and internally with the team.
* Strong Interpersonal Skills You communicate clearly, listen actively and adapt easily to different stakeholders and cultures in an international context.
* Commitment to Growth You invest in your own development, keep your knowledge current and obtain relevant certifications for the platforms in Youwe’s portfolio where needed.
* Leadership & Coaching You lead by example in deals, share best practices, and coach less-experienced colleagues in qualification, deal strategy and pitching.
