From the employer
Optiply is the AI-native platform transforming how e-commerce, retail, and wholesale businesses approach supply chain optimization. Our supply chain agents automate procurement end-to-end—handling everything from demand forecasting to purchase order execution—resulting in 32% less inventory, 80% less manual work, and dramatically higher product availability.
We're not building a software tool; we're enabling organizational transformation. Buyers go from spending entire days on purchasing decisions to having intelligent agents handle routine orders while they focus on strategic partnerships and growth. CFOs see immediate cash flow improvements. Procurement leaders see their teams work smarter, not harder.
We aren't looking for someone to just "close deals." We are looking for an Account Executive who can act as a strategic advisor to CFOs and Operations Directors. You won't just sell software; you will sell a new way of working. You will challenge the status quo of "gut-feeling" purchasing and replace it with data-driven, autonomous AI execution.- Lead the AI Conversation: Take ownership of qualified leads and guide them through a consultative sales cycle—shifting their perspective from "managing inventory" to "optimizing capital."
- Data-Driven Discovery: Conduct deep-dive sessions to understand a prospect's current supply chain pain points. You'll need to speak the language of safety stock, lead times, and working capital.
- The Power of the Demo: Perform high-impact product demonstrations that don't just show features, but prove ROI. You’ll show them exactly how our AI agents solve their specific stock-out and overstock issues.
- Collaborative Closing: Work closely with our SDR team to refine targeting and coordinate with Customer Success to ensure the "Transformation Roadmap" you sold is ready for execution.
- Optimize the Engine: Utilize our CRM and sales tech stack to track performance, analyze conversion data, and constantly iterate on your pitch.
- 2-4+ years of experience in B2B SaaS or Tech sales. If you have experience in Supply Chain, E-commerce, or ERP software, you’ll have a significant head start.
- Full-Cycle Mastery: Proven ability to manage a deal from the initial "aha!" moment in a demo to the final contract signature.
- Fluent in English & Dutch (Mandatory): You will be a key player in our home market, requiring native-level communication to build deep trust.
- Tech Savvy: You don't just use tools; you understand how they work. You are curious about how AI is changing the business landscape and can explain technical concepts with ease.
- Analytical Rigor: You are comfortable looking at a prospect’s data and identifying the "hidden" costs of their manual processes.
- Consultative Edge: You are a problem-solver who stays calm during complex negotiations. You know when to listen and when to challenge a prospect’s outdated assumptions.
- Competitive Salary & Uncapped Commission

- Training and development opportunities.
- Hybrid work model.
- Flexible schedule.

- Up to 1 month of "work from anywhere".
