About Lun

Our carbon emissions are still increasing, and the evidence for dramatic climate change is all around. We want to do our part in solving it.

In Europe, 12% of our carbon emissions come from heating our homes - just as much as using our cars. Getting those emissions to zero will be a gargantuan task: retrofitting 90 million buildings across many countries is a hard problem.

Lun’s mission is to decarbonise homes faster, by building an operating system for tradespeople in the European energy renovation industry. Our first task is to make heat pump installations an absolute no-brainer for plumbers and electricians.

We've secured a robust funding of 11M€ from high-caliber investors, including the likes of Lowercarbon, Norrsken VC, Partech, Foundamental, and MCJ Collective, in order to very rapidly accelerate building retrofits across Europe.

About the role

Lun is expanding to Germany, one of Europe’s biggest and fastest growing heat pump markets. We’re looking for a German-speaking Senior Sales Manager to help us launch and drive revenue growth in the new market.

This is a sales-focused role for a driven self-starter who can build relationships, close deals and achieve sales targets in a new market, while working closely with our Product and Customer Success teams.

This position can be based in Lun’s HQ office in Copenhagen or remote in Germany. You will report to the Go-To-Market Lead for the German market.

What you will do

The overarching objective of the go-to-market (GTM) team in Germany is to grow Lun’s product with active installers, and achieve a sizable share of the heat pump installer market in Germany by the end of 2024.

You will be part of this team to get us there. Your specific responsibilities will include but are not limited to:

• Executing Lun’s GTM strategy in Germany including lead generation and qualification, prospecting, and leading product demos.
• Being the first point of contact with Lun’s installer customers in Germany.
• Growing our customer base in Germany to become the market leader.
• Participating in onboarding new customers, and helping resolve customer concerns or issues along with Lun's internal teams.
