🧡 Coverflex
Coverflex started with a simple observation: work changed, but compensation didn’t.
A few founders looked at how people were being paid across Europe — rigid salary structures, fragmented benefits, systems that were complex for HR and often meaningless for employees — and realized the model simply hadn’t kept up with modern work.
So we decided to rebuild it.
What began in Portugal as a small team trying to fix a broken compensation system quickly grew into one of the most ambitious compensation platforms in Southern Europe. Today, thousands of companies use Coverflex to manage benefits, meal allowance, insurance, and flexible compensation through a single platform.
But what makes Coverflex special isn’t just the product — it’s how we build.
We’re a team of people who like solving hard problems, moving fast, and taking real ownership. We care about clarity, autonomy, and impact. Titles matter less than outcomes, and good ideas can come from anywhere.
Now we’re entering our next chapter.
After building strong traction in Portugal, Spain, and Italy, we’re expanding into Germany — one of Europe’s most sophisticated and complex compensation markets.
Launching a new country at Coverflex isn’t about “copy-pasting” what already exists. It’s about building again — understanding the market, challenging old assumptions, and creating something that truly works for local companies and employees.
If you join at this stage, you won’t just be joining a company.
You’ll be helping build the next chapter of it.

⚡ Reality Check – What Makes This Role Hard
Let’s be real - here’s what makes this role challenging:
SMB sales moves fast. It’s execution-heavy, repetitive at times, and results depend on discipline and consistency. On top of that, this role is part of launching and building our presence in a new market, which means more ownership and ambiguity than in a fully mature setup.
You’ll help build structure where it doesn’t fully exist yet, contributing to playbooks, processes, and feedback loops that will shape how our GTM motion works in Germany The role requires high activity volume — calls, emails, follow-ups, and constant pipeline movement. Staying sharp and consistent is key Not every lead will convert. Rejection and persistence are part of the job, and resilience matters You’ll handle multiple deals at different stages simultaneously, which requires organisation and strong prioritisation You’ll need to learn fast, adapt your pitch, and improve week after week based on feedback and results Success comes from consistent execution, not occasional big wins 👤 You Must-haves (evidence, not years) Experience in B2B sales environments, ideally within SaaS or technology companies Experience with inbound and/or outbound prospecting, including managing first conversations with potential customers Ability to run end-to-end SMB sales cycles, from discovery to closing Strong organisational skills to manage and prioritise an active pipeline Comfort working in target-driven environments, with clear KPIs and sales goals Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build trust with prospects Resilient, proactive mindset, with the ability to learn quickly and improve through feedback Fluency in English and German Nice-to-have Experience selling HR, benefits, insurance, or fintech solutions Familiarity with HubSpot or similar CRM platforms Experience in startup or fast-growing environments Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese language skills 🧬 Your DNA Energetic : you bring momentum to every conversation Resilient : you don’t take rejection personally Curious : you ask good questions and want to understand customer pain Structured : your pipeline lives in the CRM, not in your head Growth-minded : feedback makes you better, not defensive You’ll probably find this frustrating if…
You dislike targets, repetition, or outbound activity You need rigid scripts and step-by-step instructions You struggle with fast pace and ambiguity You prefer comfort over growth 👥 Manager & Team
