Factorial

Team lead in SaaS

In short

This role leads a team of Sales Account Executives at Factorial, a SaaS company, driving account expansion for customers in France and Italy from the Barcelona office. It combines hands-on coaching, deal involvement, and team KPI ownership rather than individual quotas. The role requires 2-3+ years of B2B sales experience (preferably SaaS), native-level French, and solid English; Spanish and leadership experience are a plus.

•Step into key negotiations when necessary to help drive deals over the finish line
•Help the team identify opportunities for upselling and cross-selling
•Ensure a top-tier customer experience and a value-based sales approach
•Work closely with Account Managers, Sales Leaders, and internal teams

•Excellent soft skills: resilience, empathy, top-notch communication, and the ability to manage complex team dynamics
•Proactive, energetic, and solution-oriented mindset
•Willingness and capability to jump on calls, support negotiations, and be highly present for your team
•Native-level French and solid English skills
