Business Development Representative - German Speaker

About Wayflyer

Wayflyer is designed to support ambitious small businesses by providing fast, accessible capital solutions. Unlike traditional financing, which can be slow and restrictive, our technology evaluates businesses quickly, generates tailored funding offers, and delivers cash in as little as 24 hours. We have already facilitated over $6 billion in funding globally, supported by top-tier institutions such as J.P. Morgan. Our team spans multiple international locations including Dublin, London, New York, Charlotte, Berlin, and Sydney.

Role Overview

As a Business Development Representative (BDR), you will be the initial point of contact for many entrepreneurs discovering Wayflyer for the first time. Your mission is to engage founders through thoughtful outreach and meaningful dialogue, qualifying their funding requirements and connecting them with our Account Executives. Successful BDRs are proactive, inquisitive, and deeply invested in providing tailored solutions rather than merely processing orders.

Career Growth

This position serves as a career stepping stone, with most BDRs transitioning into roles such as Account Executive or Customer Success within 12 to 18 months. We actively facilitate this progression through our Revenue Academy, a structured training program focusing on skill-building, exposure to deals, and commercial understanding. Managers prioritize your professional development and provide ongoing coaching beyond standard sales metrics.

Ideal Candidate

The role is tailored for individuals who thrive in goal-oriented settings and view challenges as opportunities to improve. You respond proactively to rejection and naturally identify opportunities beyond your immediate responsibilities. While prior sales experience is valuable, we prioritize candidates who possess strong commercial insight, enthusiasm, and a willingness to grow. Fluency in both English and German is mandatory, and while start-up experience is advantageous, it is not essential.

Location and Work Arrangement

This position is based in Berlin with a hybrid working model, requiring attendance at the office 3 to 4 days per week.

Benefits

• 25 annual vacation days plus public holidays
• Equity ownership opportunities
• Generous parental leave for all caregivers
• Flexibility to work remotely from any location up to 60 days per year
