Dutch Sales Development Representative (m/w/d)

EU GTM | Cologne, Germany

About the team

SumUp is one of the fastest-growing fintechs in Europe — and our SDR team in Cologne is at the heart of that growth. We're looking for a Dutch-speaking SDR to help us grow our presence in the Netherlands: someone who's comfortable picking up the phone, starting real conversations with business owners, and creating pipeline that our sales team can close. No rigid scripts, no micromanagement — just clear targets, plenty of ownership, and a team that wants you to succeed.

What you'll do

• Reach out to business owners in the Netherlands through outbound calls, emails, and other channels to generate qualified appointments
• Start conversations, understand how businesses manage their payments, and identify where SumUp can add value
• Qualify prospects and hand over opportunities with clear, well-documented notes so the sales team has everything they need
• Keep CRM records accurate and up to date across activity, pipeline, and progress
• Hit — and ideally beat — weekly and monthly activity and appointment targets

You'll be great for this role if…

• You speak Dutch fluently or at native level, and have a good working level of English for our international team.
• You're a confident communicator who's comfortable speaking with new people every day.
• You're target-driven and take full ownership of your own performance.
• You're organised and consistent — you understand that good sales results come from doing the basics well, every day.
• You're coachable, open to feedback, and genuinely interested in getting better.
