About this role

Recent achievements: EU Seal of Excellence (May 2026) : awarded by the European Commission for our Horizon Europe proposal BRIDGE, recognised as a high-quality proposal under the EIC pre-accelerator (Widening) call. Eurostars-awarded consortium: grant contract signed in September 2025, and the work is underway. DIGIT grant awarded (2026) : €496k to deliver our BRIDGE project over 24 months. Further funding in the pipeline : DIGIT Valid application submitted.

Bidsale launched in stealth (May 2025) : our AI platform for European public real estate auctions. R&D partnerships: we collaborate with FER (University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing), its TakeLab text-analysis lab, and EDIH (European Digital Innovation Hub). Role Summary: VendueTech is built by a team of independent contractors who collaborate as owners. Each of us is building something exciting and shares directly in its success.

This role follows the same model: you'll be compensated through equity in the VendueTech Ltd ESOP Trust plus uncapped commission on the revenue you bring in, so your upside grows with the company's. You'll lead our first commercial team and take part directly in long-term value creation. As our Founding Head of Sales, you will take Bidsale from zero revenue to its first signed customers. Expect to spend about 70% of your time selling hands-on in your first 12 months: owning the pipeline, closing the first deals, and developing the team per market as traction lands.

You'll work directly with the CEO on go-to-market strategy, pricing and market priorities across Germany, Spain, Italy and the wider EU, and you'll own the revenue story in front of investors. The ideal candidate has done this before: you've taken a B2B product from zero to its first customers and built the sales function behind it, and you want to do it again with real ownership. Key Responsibilities: Pipeline & Closing: Build and work the pipeline yourself through outbound, events, referrals and your own network across banks, NPL servicers, legal professionals, auction houses and investors.
