### ☎️ About fonio

We grew from $1M to $10M ARR in under 12 months, then went from $10M to $20M in about 8 weeks. Today we serve 10,000+ customers.

### Join one of the fastest-growing companies! 🚀

### Your role

You own the Polish market on the sales side. You'll build and lead a high-performing AE & SDR team from the ground up – hiring, ramping, coaching and holding the bar on day-to-day execution.

You stay close to the front line: running deals yourself when it matters, jumping into demos and discovery calls, and setting the standard for how we sell in Poland.

You own the Polish sales number – monthly and yearly targets – and you're accountable for a reliable forecast. You work hand in hand with Marketing on lead-gen for the PL market and with Customer Success on clean handoffs.

You translate what works in DACH into the polish context, feed learnings back to the leadership team, and shape how the whole polish sales motion scales.

### What's waiting for you

Market ownership: Full responsibility for fonio's sales performance in Poland.

Team building: Hire, ramp and coach the polish AE & SDR team as we scale.

Player-coach: Lead from the front – stay in deals and demos, not just dashboards.

Quota ownership: Clear monthly and yearly targets for the PL market - you´re setting it up for the team.

Cross-functional impact: Close collaboration with Marketing, Customer Success and the founders.

Build, don't maintain: Shape the Polish sales motion in a fast-scaling startup.

### What we offer

€80,000 – 110,000 (base + uncapped commission; depending on experience)

On-site in Warsaw (with a onboarding on-site in Vienna to start)
