Meet the team behind this journey
We're looking for a Commercial Account Executive to help us accelerate growth across DeepL's commercial segment (up to 500 employees) in the Benelux region. In this role, you'll own the full sales cycle with a focus on bringing in new business — building real relationships with clients and helping them break down language barriers with our market-leading AI translation technology.
The role can be based in London or Amsterdam.
Your responsibilities
Be a driving force in DeepL's growth by introducing our translation solutions to businesses across Benelux — helping them communicate across borders with confidence
Become a trusted expert on our products and a genuine partner to customers, understanding their needs and finding the right solutions for them
Guide prospects through the full sales cycle — from first conversation to close — with care, clarity and purpose
Build and manage a healthy pipeline of new business, while identifying opportunities to grow existing accounts through upselling and cross-selling
Work collaboratively with our SDR, Marketing, and Customer Success teams to deliver a seamless experience for every prospect and customer
Keep your pipeline organised and your forecasting sharp — tracking opportunities, use cases, timeframes, and next steps
Contribute to a team culture where everyone's success is shared
Qualities we look for
2+ years of full-cycle sales experience
Background in software or SaaS sales is a plus — but a strong learning mindset matters just as much
Strong communication, organisation, and presentation skills — you know how to build trust and tell a compelling story
Comfortable in a fast-moving environment and able to adapt when priorities shift
A collaborative spirit — you enjoy lifting others up as much as you enjoy your own wins
Fluency in Dutch OR French and English is essential

Regular in-person team events: we bond over vibrant events that are as unique as our team, from local team and business unit gatherings, to new-joiner onboardings, to company-wide events that bring us all together–literally.
Monthly full-day hacking sessions: every month, we have Hack Fridays, where you can spend your time diving into a project you're passionate about and get the opportunity to work with other teams–we value your initiatives, impact, and creativity.
30 days of annual leave: we value your peace of mind. With 30 days off (excluding public holidays) and access to mental health resources, we make sure you're as strong mentally as you are professionally.
Competitive benefits: just as our team spans the globe, so does our benefits package. We've crafted it to reflect the diversity of our team and tailored it to align with your unique location, to ensure you feel supported every step of the way.
