at Green Fusion

🏢 About Green Fusion

Green Fusion uniquely automates boiler rooms to maximize energy savings and reduce CO₂ emissions, targeting the PropTech and energy sectors. As a company focused on sustainability through technology, it offers the chance to work on meaningful environmental impact while being part of a fast-growing SaaS business. Their remote-first EU structure provides flexibility while tackling a critical global challenge.

About This Role

This role serves as the 'Außenminister:in' for the Western region, responsible for building strategic relationships, driving expansion deals within existing customer portfolios, and leading cross-functional teams in a pod structure. It's impactful because you'll directly increase Green Fusion's market presence and share of wallet in a key territory, contributing to both revenue growth and CO₂ reduction goals through expanded SaaS adoption.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve morning coordination with your pod's SDRs and account executives on pipeline priorities, followed by strategic calls with key regional stakeholders in the PropTech or real estate sectors to build relationships. Afternoons could focus on analyzing expansion opportunities within existing customer portfolios and planning regional marketing events to increase Green Fusion's visibility, all while monitoring budget and performance metrics for your territory.

🎯 Who Green Fusion Is Looking For

  • Has 3+ years in B2B SaaS, preferably in fast-growth environments, with demonstrable experience managing MRR/ARR, churn, and expansion metrics.
  • Possesses deep understanding of PropTech, real estate, or energy-adjacent sectors, enabling credible stakeholder conversations about boiler room automation.
  • Is a natural networker ('Netzwerker-Persönlichkeit') with proven ability to build and maintain strategic relationships in a regional context.
  • Has experience leading in pod or cross-functional structures, coordinating between Sales, SDR, Customer Success, and Tech Ops teams.
