  • Consultative Selling: Analyze the technical and commercial requirements of potential customers (B2B/B2C) and derive tailored additional JAKALA solutions (e.g., migration to Shopify Plus, headless architectures, or app integrations).
  • Pipeline Management: End-to-end responsibility from qualification (inbound/outbound) through the demo to contract closing and handover to the delivery team.

  • Methodologies: Experience with frameworks such as MEDDIC or SPIN Selling is a plus.
  • Platform Knowledge: Solid understanding of Shopify (differences between Core and Plus, API capabilities, basic Liquid knowledge) is essential to speak confidently with eCommerce managers and identify gaps in the value chain.
  • Analytical Skills: Ability to interpret a merchant’s unit economics (CAC, CLV, AOV) and use those metrics to calculate the ROI of our services.
  • Languages: Business-fluent German (capable of C-level communication) and English.
  • Tech Stack: Confident use of Salesforce and sales-intelligence tools.
