We’re looking for an Inside Sales Manager to build, lead, and scale a high-performing inside sales team from the ground up for a new product we are launching. This team will be responsible for selling our offering to our existing client base - salon owners - helping them unlock new value and opportunities. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, enjoys building processes from scratch, and can balance operational execution with strategic thinking.

Key Responsibilities

• Recruit, train, and develop an inside sales team to drive the adoption of our product among existing customers.
• Set up scalable processes, tools (CRM, reporting, automation), and performance metrics.
• Lead by example - rolling up your sleeves to refine scripts, jump on customer calls, and close deals yourself.
• Monitor sales performance, analyse trends, and optimise team efficiency.
• Work cross-functionally with marketing, product, and customer success to refine the go-to-market approach.
• Define and implement the sales playbook, including messaging, outreach sequences, and objection handling.
• Ensure a consultative sales approach that builds long-term relationships with salon owners.
  
  

Qualifications

• Proven experience in inside sales leadership, ideally in a high-growth startup or fast-scaling business.
• Track record of building and scaling an inside sales team.
• Strong leadership skills - able to coach, inspire, and get the best out of a team.
• Hands-on & operational - willing to get involved in the day-to-day while also thinking strategically.
• Analytical mindset - comfortable with data, metrics, and optimising processes for efficiency.
• Experience in B2B sales (selling to SMEs or salon owners is a plus).
• Excellent communication skills (either DE or NL, and EN)
• Extreme self-starter, a hands-on mentality with a passion for building and scaling this project to a new revenue driver for Salonkee
  
  

What we offer:

• The opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the company's success
• A permanent contract, providing stability and long-term growth potential
• Flat hierarchies that promote open communication and encourages putting your ideas forward
• An international team with colleagues from diverse backgrounds and countries, fostering a multicultural work environment
• Regular company events to foster team bonding and create opportunities for networking and collaboration
• Enjoy perks such as free coffee, fruit and lunch vouchers
• Experience an amazing company culture that values teamwork, creativity, and a positive work atmosphere
