About FERO
We're FERO, a cutting-edge startup revolutionising the customer Checkout and Payment journey. Backed by top VCs, our mission is to create seamless, personalised online Checkout experiences while helping merchants recover lost revenue.
🚀 We’re growing fast and we’re ready to scale. After strong traction in our founder-led go-to-market motion, we’re expanding our sales team and looking for passionate Account Executives to help us reach the next level.
We believe that your work day should be fun and inspiring, but we also believe in achieving results. This is your opportunity not to be a passenger, but to get a front-row seat to grab the wheel and steer us forward.
About the position
As an Account Executive at FERO, you’ll be at the forefront of driving our go-to-market success. You’ll identify, engage, and close e-commerce merchants who are ready to unlock more revenue from their checkout experience.
You’ll be responsible for managing the full sales cycle, from outreach and discovery to deal negotiation and handoff to our implementation team. You’ll collaborate closely with Sales Development, Product, and Engineering to help merchants see (and feel) the measurable impact of FERO.
This is not a passive role. We're looking for a driven, curious, and execution-focused seller who thrives in fast-moving startup environments, is resilient in the face of challenges, cares deeply about customer outcomes, and wants to help build something meaningful in e-commerce technology.
If you love solving complex problems, can balance data with empathy, and believe in the power of strong customer relationships, then this one’s for you.
Reporting directly to the Co-Founder, you will focus on:
- Prospecting & Lead Generation: Identify and engage potential clients through outbound prospecting (yes, generating your own leads will be a crucial part of the role) and follow up on SDR generated leads
- Building Trusted Relationship: Key to our success has been our ability to understand pain points, demonstrate subject matter expertise, and solve problems
- Pipeline Management & Closing: Own the full sales cycle from initial outreach through negotiation and contract signature, consistently progressing opportunities and driving deals to a successful close.
- Collaboration with Sales Development & Product: Every customer conversation yields new insights and we pride ourselves on learning together so by sharing your learnings with other teams, you can influence the direction of where we go as a business
- You own the momentum: not just closing the deal. You will focus on deals created, stage progression and pacing.
- Global coverage: Although this role is mainly focused on EMEA/UK&I, you will be responsible for prospects and clients in other geographies as well.
We’re looking for someone who has:
- 2+ years of experience in sales roles with deal closing experience
- Experience in SaaS, e-Commerce or FinTech is a plus
- A proven track record of closing new business in the €10K–€100K+ ARR range
- Confident selling to VPs of eCommerce, Heads of Digital, or CTOs
- Comfortable running both high-velocity and strategic deals
- A storyteller and problem-solver, who paints outcomes and doesn’t pitch features
- Fluent in English
- Danish, Swedish, German or Italian is a plus
- You're based in Amsterdam
What we offer:
- Innovative environment: Work on cutting-edge solutions in a greenfield setting
- Growth opportunities: You will help us build and grow our sales team, with heaps of potential to grow professionally and personally 🌱
- Collaborative culture: Be part of a driven, creative, and supportive team 🤝
- Competitive compensation: Great pay, no caps 💰
