Are you as passionate as we are about creating real, measurable impact in the fight against climate change? Do you thrive in an environment where purpose and hustle go hand in hand?

We’re looking for talented individuals who share our mission to join us on our journey. Senken, the 2nd largest carbon removal marketplace worldwide in 2024, is now expanding our team to help drive a transformative shift in climate action. We need Business Development Representatives ready to dive into outreach and turn interest into impactful conversations. You’ll be supporting our VP of Revenue, Sabine Koch, and our CEO Adrian, in driving real opportunities for closing deals that make a difference.

About Senken

Founded in March 2022, Senken has quickly grown into one of the best-funded start-ups in the climate space, with €7.5 million raised to date. Our incredible team brings together passionate, diverse talents from across the globe, united by a shared commitment to redefine climate action. Deeply rooted in Africa—close to where much of the impact takes place—we’re proud to have the support of visionary impact investors from Silicon Valley.

As a Business Development Representative, you won’t just be another sales rep; you’ll be a key part of our mission to create real, transparent change in the climate sector. At Senken, transparency, collaboration, and urgency drive everything we do.

What You’ll Do

• Execute outreach strategies that go beyond the basics—cold emails, LinkedIn engagement, phone calls, and even attending key industry events or conferences when needed.
• Collaborate with the sales team to build and maintain a robust pipeline of qualified leads.
• Engage prospective clients and partners in a meaningful way, opening doors to conversations that will help accelerate the adoption of Senken’s solutions.
• Constantly adapt your approach, learn from feedback, and bring insights back to the team to refine our processes.
• Take over more and more responsibility for managing your own accounts. This role is focused on hunting but will grow into a generalist sales role from acquisition to customer success.

Key Traits We’re Looking For

We care deeply about how you work as much as what you do. You’ll fit right in if you share these values:

1. Can-Do Attitude: You see challenges as opportunities to try new things and bring solutions to the table.
2. All Hands on Deck: You’re all about teamwork and have a natural willingness to adapt priorities for the greater good, especially in a fast-paced environment.
3. Passionately Curious: You’re always digging deeper, asking why, and sharing what you find with the team.
4. Ownership Mindset: You take full responsibility for your tasks and are committed to continuous improvement.
5. Transparency and Honesty: You resonate with our DNA values, communicate clearly, ask questions, and keep information flowing transparently, internally and externally.
6. Intrinsic Urgency: You’re ready to hustle, make quick decisions, and are willing to experiment as we grow.

What Makes Us a Great Match

• You bring 2-4 years of B2B sales experience and know how to manage diverse stakeholder needs, building strong relationships with ease.
• You’re highly organized and disciplined in setting and achieving your priorities—staying focused and proactive, even in a fast-paced environment.
• You’re driven by the ambition to truly understand your customers' challenges. You’re not just after quick wins; you want to be a trusted, knowledgeable partner for your clients, diving deep into complex topics to find solutions that matter.
• Transparency, measurability, and KPIs are central to how you operate—you believe that clear metrics pave the way for meaningful impact and continuous improvement.
• You’re fluent in both German and English, enabling you to connect with a broader range of clients and team members.
• Above all, you’re passionate about tackling climate change. You recognize it’s a huge challenge but believe wholeheartedly that meaningful change is possible—and you want to be part of it.

Why You Should Join Us

At Senken, we don’t just work—we’re driven by purpose, and we thrive in an environment that celebrates transparency and urgency. Join us if you’re ready to contribute meaningfully to one of the biggest challenges of our time. You’ll be part of a company that’s passionate about empowering people to create real change.

This role is budgeted at EUR 50-70,000 per annum, depending on the candidate's level of experience.
