The Role
As Sales Director for Europe at Veloq, you will lead and develop the commercial strategy, deepen enterprise customer relationships, and build a scalable sales motion for warehouse automation solutions, while collaborating directly with the CEO and managing a sales team.
Summary Generated by Built In

About Veloq: Veloq is the software platform powering the next generation of grocery fulfilment.

Built on Rohlik Group’s (www.rohlik.group) proprietary technology and operational, Veloq is the software platform behind our same-day grocery operation. It combines warehouse automation, e-commerce fulfilment and last-mile logistics in one system, and it runs today across five European markets serving 850,000+ customers. Veloq is now a standalone company taking that platform to grocers, retailers and 3PLs. You will lead its commercial push in Europe and close its first major enterprise customers.

Why this role

A proven product. The platform already runs Rohlik's operations at scale. You sell something buyers can see working, not a roadmap.

Real ownership. You work directly with the CEO on pricing and positioning, build the commercial team, and help shape how Veloq scales.

What you will do
  • Own the European revenue target and close Veloq's first major enterprise customers

  • Advance an existing set of qualified accounts and open new ones across Europe

  • Lead consultative, multi-stakeholder sales of warehouse automation and fulfilment software, built on a clear business case for each customer

  • Shape pricing, commercial terms and major negotiations with the CEO

  • Build the sales playbook, pipeline discipline and forecasting

  • Hire and lead the commercial team as it grows

  • Represent Veloq with senior buyers and at industry events

What you bring
  • A track record of closing complex enterprise deals with 6 to 18 month cycles, at or above quota

  • Experience selling into grocery, retail or 3PL operations at VP and C-level

  • Time as an early commercial hire, or building a sales function from zero

  • Fluent English

Nice to have

  • Background in warehouse automation, WMS or supply chain technology

  • Existing relationships with senior buyers at European grocers or 3PLs

  • Experience leading a sales team

  • Exposure to pre-sales or solution design

  • German or another European language

Why it is different

This is an early-stage build with proven technology and real operations behind it. You get more ownership and less infrastructure than at a scaled vendor.

Skills Required

  • 10+ years in enterprise SaaS or supply chain/logistics technology sales
  • At least 5 years in senior commercial and/or hunter roles
  • Proven closer with a track record of hitting or exceeding quotas at €1M+ ARR level
  • Strong experience selling into retail, grocery or logistics operations at C-level / VP level
  • Strong understanding of warehouse automation and e-grocery economics
  • Proven people management experience
  • Consultative technical sales background
  • Strong hunter mentality
  • Comfortable with long and complex sales cycles (6-18 months)
  • Fluent English
