Speak fluent German and enjoy the challenge of winning new business? FGS Recruitment is working with an established international business looking for a driven sales professional to help build its pipeline across the German-speaking market.

This opportunity would suit someone with B2B sales experience who enjoys prospecting, asks good questions and brings energy and persistence to their work.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you’ll be doing
- Identifying businesses that could benefit from the company’s services.
- Engaging senior decision-makers through calls, personalised emails and LinkedIn.
- Exploring prospects’ needs and establishing whether there is a commercial fit.
- Generating qualified opportunities and arranging meetings for Account Executives.
- Following up consistently and keeping your prospecting activity organised within the CRM.
- Taking ownership of your activity and contribution to the sales pipeline.
What we’re looking for
You’ll bring experience in B2B sales, business development or lead generation, alongside the confidence to approach new contacts and build rapport. You should be comfortable with outbound calling, motivated by targets and able to keep momentum when a prospect says “not yet”.
