<div><em>At Malt we believe that Ambition is the Way, so all lists of missions and responsibilities are non-exhaustive.</em></div><br><strong>The Mission (Situation & Task) 🪐</strong><br><div>
<li data-path-to-node="5"><strong data-path-to-node="5" data-index-in-node="0">The Situation:</strong> Malt is transforming how work gets done as Europe’s leading freelance marketplace. While we have historically excelled at developing deep client relationships, we have identified a strategic, high-priority gap in our Go-To-Market engine: aggressive, net-new client acquisition.</li>
<li data-path-to-node="6"><strong data-path-to-node="6" data-index-in-node="0">The Task:</strong> We are not hiring you to maintain a warm book of business. We are bringing you on to architect our zero-to-one acquisition strategy targeting the backbone of the German economy: German SMBs and high-growth companies (500 to 2,000 FTEs). You - as a team of 3 - will operate as the autonomous founder of your territory, designing your own outreach methodology and conquering major local players to drive our next phase of hyper-growth.</li>
