About this role

The challenge

As an Account Executive for the French market, you will play a key role in driving Plenit’s growth in France. Your mission will be to identify, engage, activate, and grow strategic IT partners, helping them build successful cloud businesses with Plenit.

You will primarily work with MSPs, IT integrators, VARs, service providers, and other companies within the French technology ecosystem that are looking to expand their cloud offerings and generate recurring revenue through our platform.

This role goes beyond simply closing deals. You will be responsible for understanding each partner's business model, identifying commercial opportunities, delivering impactful product demonstrations, managing the full sales cycle, and supporting partners through their first projects and initial billing activity.

You will join the Sales team and work closely with Marketing, Presales, Partner Success, Product, and Engineering to continuously improve our go-to-market strategy, partner activation process, and revenue growth across the French market.

We are looking for someone with a strong hunter mentality, excellent relationship-building skills, and the ability to combine commercial execution with strategic thinking. Someone who can generate new opportunities, build trust quickly, guide partners through complex buying decisions, and create long-term business relationships that translate into sustainable growth.

  • Ability to conduct high-quality discovery conversations, understanding a partner's business model, challenges, growth objectives, and go-to-market strategy.
  • Experience delivering engaging and tailored product demonstrations to both business and technical audiences.
  • Ability to operate in a field-sales environment, including participation in events, roadshows, webinars, partner meetings, and industry conferences across France.
  • Experience using CRM, prospecting, and reporting tools to manage pipeline, forecasting, and commercial activity.

  • Candidates may be based in Spain or France, preferably in Madrid or Paris, and should be willing to travel regularly throughout France when required.

Key skills and expected impact

  • Build and develop a qualified partner pipeline: identify, engage, and attract MSPs, integrators, VARs, and service providers through outbound initiatives, events, referrals, and marketing-generated opportunities.
  • Conduct consultative discovery: understand each partner's business model, customer base, technology stack, challenges, and revenue objectives.
  • Deliver impactful demonstrations: tailor presentations and product demos to the partner's specific opportunities and target market.
  • Manage the full sales cycle: guide opportunities from initial contact through proposal, negotiation, agreement signature, onboarding, and first billing activity.
  • Drive partner activation: ensure newly signed partners become active and start generating revenue as quickly as possible.
  • Build long-term relationships: develop trusted partnerships that drive retention, growth, cross-sell opportunities, and sustained engagement.
  • Maintain forecasting accuracy: manage pipeline visibility, opportunity progression, and revenue forecasting through disciplined CRM usage.
  • Collaborate across teams: work closely with Marketing, Presales, and Partner Success to maximize conversion and activation rates.
  • Share market insights: provide feedback on competitor activity, channel trends, partner needs, and opportunities identified in the French market.
  • Represent Plenit externally: participate in industry events, vendor initiatives, webinars, and partner activities, acting as a brand ambassador for the company.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement: identify opportunities to optimize sales processes, partner programs, messaging, and go-to-market strategies.

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
