German-Speaking B2B Telephone Sales Representative – Funeral Industry

HerdenkSamen Europe is looking for a fluent German-speaking B2B telephone sales professional to build relationships with funeral homes and funeral directors in German-speaking markets. We offer a digital remembrance platform and are expanding our partnerships across Europe. You will work directly with our founder in the Netherlands.

This is business-to-business sales. You will contact funeral businesses and professional decision-makers, not grieving families. This industry requires sensitivity, trust, and a calm, respectful approach.

What you will do

• Research and qualify funeral homes and other relevant B2B partners.
• Call owners and decision-makers in German, explain the offering clearly, and discover their needs.
• Book qualified demos or sales meetings and follow up consistently.
• Keep accurate notes, next steps, and outcomes in our CRM.
• Improve your call approach using feedback and measured results.
• Work independently while communicating clearly with the founder.

You should have

• Fluent spoken German suitable for professional telephone sales (C1/C2 or equivalent). Strong written German is also required.
• Proven B2B outbound telephone sales, appointment setting, or closing experience, with concrete examples and results.
• A natural, empathetic speaking style and excellent listening skills.
• Experience speaking with business owners or senior decision-makers.
• Reliable follow-up, CRM discipline, and comfort working remotely.
• Enough English to communicate with our team.
• Availability during German-speaking European business hours.

Experience in funeral services, memorial products, or B2B SaaS is useful, but proven German-language telephone selling matters most. We value quality conversations and genuine fit over call volume or aggressive scripts.

This is a full-time remote role, approximately 40 hours per week, with substantial overlap with 09:00–17:00 Netherlands time. Starting pay: $5 per hour.

How to apply
Start your application with: I SELL IN GERMAN. Then answer briefly:
1. What B2B products or services have you sold by phone in German? To whom?
2. Give one concrete example of a deal or qualified meeting you personally generated, including your role and results.
3. What is your German level, and where have you used German professionally?
4. Write a 3–4 sentence German opening for a first call to a funeral home owner.
5. Share a 60–90 second audio or video introduction in German if you have one.
6. Which CRM and calling tools have you used?
7. Do you accept the $5/hour starting rate, how many hours per week can you work, and when can you start?

Shortlisted candidates will have a brief live German conversation and a practical sales exercise before any hiring decision.
