We run our own portals — HRS Holidays and Tiscover — and partner with tourism organizations, holiday-rental agencies and hosts. The market is consolidating, and DS intends to be visibly at the top of it. Your mission is to personally win new logos across DMOs and short-term-rental agencies — selling full-cycle, from first outreach to signature, and displacing the competition along the coast and in the Alps. Location & work model — Home-based in Germany, remote-friendly, with occasional time in the office plus 30–50% travel to customers and industry events. Being based near the German coast or in the Alpine region is a strong plus — that's where your customers are. MISSION & IMPACT Mission As Head of New Sales, you own and accelerate DS’s new-customer growth across DMOs and STR / holiday-rental agencies in DACH+. You personally close the most strategic logos — including competitive displacements — grow a disciplined hunter team, and position DS visibly at the top of a consolidating market. You translate the DS roadmap (PMS, Channel, AI workflows) into commercial wins. This is an actively selling sales leader (player-coach), not a pure manager. Impact You fuel DS’s growth where it matters most: net-new ARR from the accounts that define market position. Every strategic logo you close, every hunter you ramp to full quota, and every competitor base you displace compounds into DS’s lead in a market that is picking its long-term winners right now.

Buying-Center Mastery & Deal Architecture - Navigate legacy agency owners, second-generation successors and semi-political DMO committees — consultative, relationship-led, multi-year; never an aggressive push. - Structure complex term sheets (volume tiers, transaction commissions, migration credits, exclusivity, exit clauses) with CRO/CEO; protect margin and lock-in. Competitive Displacement - Build and run a named-account program against top competitors’ customer bases. - Deploy DS differentiators — 150+ channels, ~350 exclusive DMO portals, AI workflows, revenue management. Team Build-Out & Sales Cadence - Lead and scale the team from 2 to 5 Sales Managers for New Business — recruiting, ramping and developing new team members to full quota. - Establish a clear cadence: MEDDPICC (or similar), HubSpot/SF hygiene, weekly forecast, monthly QBR, alignment with HRS Group sales logic. Voice of Market & Geographic Expansion - Deliver monthly structured feedback to Product and CRO on win/loss themes, price elasticity and roadmap gaps. - Design and own the coverage model for AT and (Phase 2) neighboring regions — territory design, language coverage, partner channels.
