How to Apply for B2B Vertriebsmitarbeiter (m/w/d) | Hunter im Projektvertrieb IoT und Infrastruktur | 100 % Remote

at RX-WATERTEC GmbH

🏢 About RX-WATERTEC GmbH

RX-WATERTEC GmbH is a pioneer in sustainable urban water management, transforming cities into climate-resilient environments with innovative IoT and infrastructure solutions. Joining means contributing to a mission-driven company that combines cutting-edge technology with real-world environmental impact, all while enjoying the flexibility of 100% remote work.

About This Role

This is a hunter role focused on B2B project sales in IoT and infrastructure, where you'll actively acquire new clients (70% of your time) through cold calling, targeted outreach, and trade fairs. You'll develop tailored sales strategies by analyzing customer challenges, with 20% field sales travel. Your success directly drives market expansion for a tech-forward product.

💡 A Day in the Life

Start your day by reviewing your CRM pipeline and prioritizing outreach to 5-10 new decision-makers in water utilities or municipalities. Spend mid-morning on cold calls and LinkedIn research, then follow up on existing leads via email. After lunch, prepare for a virtual product demo or attend a trade fair (during travel weeks), and end the day updating your sales funnel and strategy notes.

🎯 Who RX-WATERTEC GmbH Is Looking For

  • Proven hunter mentality with 3+ years of B2B sales experience in IoT, infrastructure, or technical project sales, including systematic cold calling and closing complex deals.
  • Strong technical acumen to understand IoT and infrastructure concepts, and ability to translate customer pain points into value propositions.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset: self-starter comfortable with 100% remote work, disciplined pipeline management, and proactive market research.
  • Fluent in German (C1+) and English (B2+) for client communication and internal collaboration.

📝 Tips for Applying to RX-WATERTEC GmbH

1

Highlight specific examples of cold calling success, including number of calls, conversion rates, or revenue generated from new accounts.

2

Showcase any experience with IoT, smart city, or water management projects—even if tangential—to demonstrate technical fit.

3

Tailor your resume to emphasize hunter roles, not account management; use keywords like 'Neukundenakquise', 'Projektvertrieb', and 'Abschlussstärke'.

4

Prepare a brief pitch (1-2 minutes) on how you would approach identifying and winning a new client in the water utility sector.

5

Mention familiarity with CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot) and remote sales tools (e.g., LinkedIn Sales Navigator, ZoomInfo).

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Your passion for sustainable infrastructure and IoT as a driver for climate resilience.', 'Proven track record in hunter B2B sales with concrete numbers and a clear methodology for cold outreach.', 'Ability to grasp technical product details and create compelling narratives for decision-makers.', 'Alignment with remote work culture: self-discipline, communication skills, and virtual collaboration experience.']
