Introduction to the Team & Role
Our DACH sales team helps mid-sized companies (from 100 to 5,000 employees) in Germany, Austria and Switzerland build a learning culture with 360Learning. As Sales Director DACH, you lead full time the team of Account Executives who win new customers in the region, and you own the growth of this strategic market.
You report to the VP Sales Mid-Market EMEA. The role involves hands-on involvement in the sales cycles (tactical level) as well as the ability to analyse specific market trends, competitive landscape and work closely with cross-functional teams to help position 360Learning as the market leader in the region (strategic level).
Who We Are 360Learning enables companies to upskill from within by turning their experts into champions for employee, customer, and partner growth. With our LMS for collaborative learning, Learning & Development teams can accelerate upskilling with the help of internal experts instead of slow top-down training. 360Learning is the easiest way to onboard and upskill employees, train customer-facing teams, and enable customers and partners–all from one place. 360Learning powers the future of work at 1,700 organizations. Founded in 2013, 360Learning has raised $240 million with 400+ team members across North America and EMEA. Learning Includes Everyone. In concert with our culture, 360Learning believes learning includes everyone and that means embracing the strengths of diversity, connectedness, and inclusion. Through conscientious efforts, our global footprint celebrates cultures, perspectives, and experiences from all over the world to support our platform that is built for all regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, age, neurodiversity, disability status, citizenship, veteran status or any other aspect which makes an individual unique or protected by laws and regulations in the locations where we operate. Thus, 360Learning is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace, and we commit to continue this throughout our processes for recruitment, compensation, benefits, performance, promotion, and all other conditions and terms of employment.
