Business Development Representative

I build outbound systems that turn cold leads into warm conversations—and scalable pipeline.

With a background in Enterprise SaaS and experience across EMEA/DACH markets, I specialize in account-based sales development that blends strategic cold calling, cold email, video prospecting and advanced sales automation. I’ve generated over €3M in pipeline by designing outbound workflows that consistently deliver 20%+ phone connect rates and high-quality SQLs.

My tech stack includes tools like Clay, Apollo, Smartlead, Outreach.io, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator—but it’s not just about tools. I also tap into curated, human-verified data sources to fuel Phone-First campaigns with contacts that match exact ICP criteria, ensuring higher precision and high dial:connect ratios.

I’ve worked remotely with high-growth companies and lean go-to-market teams, consistently exceeding quota and contributing directly to closed-won revenue. My experience spans the full sales funnel—from prequalification and TAM mapping to pipeline management and sales enablement.

I believe great sales isn’t about volume—it’s about velocity and relevance. If you’re scaling a team, entering a new market, or want to talk shop about sales automation, let’s connect.

GlycanAge

Joined GlycanAge out of my personal curiosity for the longevity field. Figured out that there is no magic pill to live longer. Nothing beats the basics: Sleep 7-8 hours per night, work out 3-4 times per week, move throughout the day, eat healthy and have positive relationships. As Head of Business Development R&D I was responsible for the sales of scientific studies to our customers in the health care sector that used our biological age biomarker to test the effectiveness of their interventions to increase longevity. My tasks included lead generation, sales and project management.

Rencore GmbH

As Head of Business Development, I was responsible for the GTM of our new B2B SaaS solution Rencore Governance. I acted as Enterprise Account Executive and sold the product to the first 17 customers (€568,000 ARR, largest deal €150,000 ARR).  I set up lead generation initiatives that created an annual sales pipeline of €5 million and worked with our sales team to build the sales engine. All this helped us close our Series A round with Capnamic Ventures.

Head of Business Development

As Product Owner of our B2B SaaS solution Rencore Governance, I conducted more than 80 interviews with potential customers and used my knowledge of methods such as Jobs to be done and Design Thinking to better understand the pain points and customer journey of our target group. This work served as a basis to define and prioritise product features with our product team, set up communication strategy and lead generation initiatives with our marketing team and help our sales team to set up the sales engine.

As Head of Revenue Management I joined the leadership team and worked closely with our Head of Marketing and Head of Sales to successfully reach our revenue goal of €2 Million ARR with our legacy B2B SaaS solution Rencore Code. My main tasks included:

- Lead generation and nurturing initiatives

Head of Revenue Management

As Senior Account Executive I was in charge of selling our legacy B2B SaaS solution Rencore Code to SMB, mid market and enterprises worldwide as well as taking care of our renewal business. I closed above €600.000 ARR and closed the biggest deal in company history with €40.000 ARR.
