Junior Sales Manager (m/f/d) - Career changers welcome!
€48k - €52k EUR
About us:
At Saltz, we believe the best ingredients should be available in one marketplace.
For too long, the culinary world has been tangled in a web of distributors and hidden costs, separating passionate chefs from incredible producers. We're changing that.
Saltz is the digital marketplace where quality and creativity connect directly. We empower chefs to discover and source an incredible variety of fresh ingredients from local farms to international craftsmen with complete transparency. For producers, we unlock a global market overnight.
We recently closed a €20M Series A - backed by top European venture funds and the operators who built Europe's biggest consumer marketplaces. Our vision is to connect thousands of suppliers with thousands of chefs across hundreds of cities, building the new standard for how the world sources food.
About the role:
Own Saltz.App expansion in your city! You’ll find and contact new venues, meet chefs and managers, show how the app works, and support their orders, from cozy lunch spots to Michelin-level places. We’ll train you, and give you room to own your day and your results.
You don't need a sales degree, you need grit, passion for gastronomy, and the drive to grow.
What your days will look like:
You’ll be out in the field, visiting restaurants and kitchens. Your mission is to introduce chefs and owners to a marketplace that actually makes their lives easier
You’ll manage about 10–15 meetings a week and you’ll be responsible for following up and making sure no one is left hanging
You will plan your weekly schedule (with guidance when needed) and work towards hitting or exceeding targets
You’ll show chefs a demo of our application, in their own environment, how Saltz makes ordering simple and reliable
You’ll use our CRM (don't worry, we’ll teach you!) and other tools to keep notes on your progress so the whole team can support you
What you need:
Whether you’ve run a kitchen, managed a bar, or worked as a concierge, you understand the fast-paced world of gastronomy. Career changers are welcomed! If you’ve done sales internships or part-time customer roles, that’s a huge plus too
You’re energized by being out in the field, walking into kitchens, and building face-to-face relationships with chefs and managers
Very good oral and written German and English skills
