About Penneo

At Penneo, we build technology that helps businesses operate with trust in an increasingly complex world. What started as a digital signing solution in Copenhagen has grown into secure, compliant workflows used across Europe. With new forms of tech- and AI-driven fraud emerging fast, our mission to protect the integrity of digital business is more important than ever

Penneo is a Certified Trusted Service Provider - we were actually the very first private company in Denmark to achieve this certification. Something we're very proud of 
This means we're not "just another SaaS company". Rather, we operate critical digital trust infrastructure under the eIDAS regulation, building products that businesses across Europe rely on for identity, signatures, secure data handling, and compliance. 

If you want to join a talented team and help expand the use of meaningful products that define the future of trust in a digital society, Penneo might just be the perfect fit for you. 

Your role & impact

We're looking for a Sr. Account Executive with proven SaaS experience. In this role, you will play a key part in continuing Penneo's growth by generating new business in Denmark. This includes driving full sales cycles, navigating enterprise buying processes and closing high-value deals. 

We need your business acumen to succeed as a trusted advisor to prospects. You need to understand their workflows, compliance needs and the regulatory environment around digital trust.

You will sit in a team consisting of five talented sales professionals and report directly to our Sales Director. We work with a high pace and best-in-class tools such as Salesforce, Clari, Clay, and Lemlist to maximize selling time and minimize admin work. If you are passionate about leveraging new tools that make us work faster and better, you'll fit right in

This role is based in our Copenhagen office in Carlsberg Byen. We love to see our colleagues in the office, but we have a hybrid-set up as we want to foster a healthy work-life balance. What you'll be doing:

• Hunt and generate new business opportunities through cold calling, email, LinkedIn, and referrals.

• Build and grow a strong pipeline of enterprise opportunities.

• Drive the entire sales cycle from discovery and product demos to negotiations and closing.

• Engage and influence key stakeholders across large Danish organisations.

• Build a deep understanding of Penneo's products, use cases, and regulatory landscape.

• Act as a trusted advisor for prospects on both technical and compliance-related topics.

• Maintain strong CRM hygiene in Salesforce to ensure accurate forecasting and smooth handovers.
