Role
Who you are
- You're from Belgium and know the market from the inside. You're based in (or happy to be based in) Belgium(Remote) or Amsterdam(Hybrid)
- Approaching people comes naturally to you. You're a real networker with, or the ability to build, a strong network, ideally within HR
- You have at least 4 years of sales experience, preferably in B2B SaaS, HR platforms, or a high-growth startup/scale-up environment
- Pipedrive, HubSpot, or Salesforce are well-known names to you
- You have an academic working and thinking level and you are action-oriented
- You thrive in a fast-paced, build-it-yourself environment and are a great team player
- You are fluent in Dutch and French and speak great English
What the job involves
- This is a founding role. As our Founding Account Executive for BNLX, you will be selling and shaping how OpenUp shows up in the Belgian market. You'll own the medium enterprise segment end to end and play a defining role in our expansion in the region
- You are responsible for the sales process from A to Z: exploring the market, building pipeline, planning and running sales conversations, and negotiating contracts to close. Because you're early, you'll have real influence over strategy, positioning, and how we win, and you'll work closely with our Business Development, Customer Success, Marketing, and leadership teams to make it happen
- You won't be doing this alone. You'll be part of our European sales team, and you can count on their full support and close collaboration as you build Belgium from the ground up. Next to that:
- You put OpenUp on the map in Belgium and build our network of B2B partnerships from the ground up
- You acquire new medium enterprise clients and create opportunities within existing accounts
- You are the face and first point of contact for customers in your market
- You bring the voice of the Belgian market back to the team, helping us adapt and grow smartly
Our take
Therapy and consultations are invaluable resources for helping people manage their mental health, but accessing such services is not easy. Long waiting lists, strict assessments, and other time-consuming processes present significant challenges, and this can often dishearten or even prevent someone from receiving the care they need.
OpenUp provides low-threshold mental health services, offering consultations, coaching and other programs for both individuals and workforces. The company's application process is designed to be as simple and undemanding as possible, aiming to eradicate the usual challenges and ultimately increasing access to mental health care.
There are many startups providing mental health service marketplaces, AI-driven therapy, and other innovative tools - but OpenUp has stuck with a more traditional approach. Instead it has innovated upon the way users apply for the services, aiming to remove as much bureaucratic friction as possible for their clients.
So far this approach has met with success, and OpenUp has grown a client base of over 850 companies including the likes of McDonalds, Deloitte and Decathlon. Having raised significant funding, OpenUp continues to expand its services across Europe, focusing on Spain, France and the UK.
