Sales Executive - Denmark

Salary Competitive

Let’s start with an easy question: Do you get a kick out of selling a top of the class fintech product? Yes? Okay, so far so good. Let’s jump to the next one: Would you like to be a part of taking Sales to the next level in one of the best fintech companies coming out of Copenhagen? If you can answer YES to this one as well then we are off to a pretty good start. Let’s continue.

We are Risika. Data lovers, Culture geeks, Visionaries, Doers, Leaders, Gamers, Learners, Explores, Moms, Dads, Dog lovers, Strategists, Foodies but most importantly we are People-People and we genuinely believe that our people are the most important part of our company. Still with us? Great, then please keep reading.

We are looking for a Sales Executive for the Danish market that of course has the right experience and skills to take us to the next level but buying into the above and having a “we” approach to your job is an absolute must. Perfect, you are on board with that as well. Let’s dive a bit deeper into the role.


We would like you to

  • Be part of driving our sales approach together with the rest of the sales team and our Head of Inside Sales

  • Don't take a no for a no, understand the art of objection handling and asking the right questions

  • Have a broad background in tech products and it would be amazing if you have experience with financial services or business analytics

  • Have a focus on transparent communication to make sure that key stakeholders and relevant departments are on the same page

  • Be a courageous and people-centric Sales Executive that takes pride in constructive feedback, development of peers, pushing status quo and living up to our virtues

  • Be comfortable with being on a startup journey where things can be a bit chaotic at times


What we would like you to have

  • A proven track record of over-achieving quota and hitting target in consecutive months

  • The drive and motivation to take Sales to new heights

  • Great experience with toolings like sales tools, CRM systems, presentations etc.

  • The ability to think strategically and identify opportunities

  • An open minded approach to coaching and willingness to always learn new things

  • Strong interpersonal skills and excels at relationship building and collaboration

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in Danish - other languages are just a plus


You’ll probably have some other topics and ideas that we need to solve and that’s why the above bullets are what we imagine the main focus would be but we expect that you lay down the cards and help us understand what we need to focus on achieving our goals.


What you can expect from us

Of course we offer all the lovely benefits like an awesome location in the heart of Copenhagen, pension scheme, flexible working hours, the option to work remote, health insurance, lunch and all of that good stuff. But the most important part is that we offer you the opportunity to join a one of a kind startup journey where you can create real impact (not just the buzz word kind of impact but real impact where you take full responsibility of your area of expertise) and work together with the friendliest and brightest minds in the industry.
