Product Sales Specialist - DACH Market

About Smartness

We are Smartness, and we support small and medium-sized accommodation providers with solutions to help them fight back against the huge hotel chains. We started in 2020 by providing these companies with a dynamic pricing solution which increase revenue by on average 30%. Last year, we were named one of Italy’s top start-ups, and are the fastest growing B2B SaaS company in the accommodation space in both revenue and number of clients. Today we are working with over 4000 companies in over 20 countries, and steadily growing. Yet, this is only the start of our journey.
Beyond Smartpricing, we've launched a suite of products over the past few years that is growing by more than 10% month-over-month. Our goal is to become one of the leading global players in our industry.

What Will You Do?

Weʼre looking for a Product Sales Specialist who is not just a product expert — but a sales weapon. Youʼll work alongside Account Executives, CSMs, and Onboarding Specialists to help us close high-potential deals, save at-risk accounts, and drive adoption of our most strategic products. Youʼll be brought into conversations where standard pitches arenʼt enough — and youʼll turn complexity into clarity, technical barriers into conviction, and objections into signatures.

You will be responsible for:

• Join new business and expansion demos to handle complex product topics and close the value story
• Support CSMs in strategic retentions and upsells, showing real business impact from our platform
• Craft and deliver product narratives that resonate with operators, owners, and decision-makers
• Translate customer challenges into ideal solutions across pricing, configuration, and integration
• Partner with the Product team to share feedback and stay ahead of what's coming
• In case of low inbound demand, proactively help CSMs target high-potential expansion opportunities

What Are We Looking For?

What You Are

• A sales-driven personality: you love to win and hate to lose
• Able to build rapport, read a room, and drive urgency
• Fluent in business challenges and technical workflows — and able to simplify both
• Great at live conversations and objection handling
• Comfortable in high-stakes commercial discussions (even if not owning them directly)

Key Hard Skills

• Deep product knowledge
• Industry knowledge
• Solution/value-based selling
• Advanced objection handling
• CRM usage & opportunity tracking
• Cross-functional communication (Sales, CS, Product)
• Upselling & expansion targeting skills
• Native Italian speaker with fluency in English and German

Must-Have Experience

• 3–5+ years in Sales, Solution Consulting, or Sales-Driven Customer Success
• Industry knowledge
• Strong knowledge of SaaS, ideally in hospitality, revenue management, or PMS ecosystems
• Deep familiarity with sales cycles, customer objections, and commercial tactics

What do we offer?

• Work in a small and top-performing team that moves extremely fast where you are extremely important.
• Work without having to deal with jerks and ego-maniacs.
• The opportunity to join one of the best travel-tech sales teams in Europe.
• A place where your talent can blossom.
• An environment where mistakes are allowed – we make bold choices to achieve ambitious goals, learn from mistakes, and move forward.
• A place where your voice matters – meetings provide space for new ideas and projects, regardless of your role or seniority.

• We have fun while working! We are easygoing people.
• Leverage state-of-the-art software and automation frameworks to optimize development processes and enhance focus on delivering value to clients and achieving business goals.
