At the same time, we care just as much about your judgement, curiosity, and ability to apply the right approach to the problem. The team around you We’re a fast-growing, international AI SaaS company with around 30 people, backed by international VCs. Most of our organisation is focused on building and developing the product, supported by dedicated Customer Success and sales and marketing teams. Our team is senior-leaning. You’ll work with experienced people who take ownership, challenge ideas, and move quickly without unnecessary layers. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We believe building a great company should be fun, and we work hard to keep our culture relaxed, supportive, and human even as we scale. We bring the same mindset to our commercial environment. We work with high velocity and transparency, using modern tools, agentic GTM operations, and a high level of automation. We look for people who are curious about new ways of working and actively use technology to improve how they sell. For you, that means working hand in hand with the founders on key accounts, having direct access to product leadership to influence the roadmap, and having the freedom to shape our sales playbook from the ground up. About Agileday We launched Agileday in 2023 to help professional services companies bring their people, sales, staffing, skills, projects, time, and financials into one connected operating platform. If that sounds complicated, you should see the spreadsheets and disconnected systems many companies relied on before finding us. Proof of the value is our lifetime client NPS of 80 and our ability to win against all major players in the marketplace. Following our Series A funding round in January 2026, we’re scaling internationally with a growing focus on North America and other global markets, serving almost 100 leading professional services companies in 11 different countries. We value ambition, expertise, autonomy, direct communication, and treating people well while doing demanding work. Compensation and location Our compensation combines a competitive mix of base salary, performance-based incentives, and a meaningful share of equity. The exact mix depends on your experience, preferences, and the scope of the role. We’ll discuss compensation openly during the process to ensure expectations are aligned on both sides. The role is based in Amsterdam and is remote-first. We expect you to be close to the local market and available to meet customers in person when relevant. You’re also warmly welcome to visit our HQ in Espoo and meet the wider team whenever relevant. Interested?
