Sales & Business Development Working Student / Intern
Berlin / Remote (Germany)
As a Sales & Business Development Working Student or Intern at Phantasma, you'll help us bring AiPS, our production scheduling software, to more manufacturing companies. You'll work closely with our founder and team on finding the right companies to approach, reaching out to them and identifying where there could be a fit.
This is a role where you'll get directly involved in outbound and lead generation from day one. There's still a lot to build, test and figure out on the sales side, so we're looking for someone who's curious, brings their own ideas and wants to help shape how we approach sales as we grow
Tasks
You’ll work closely with our founder and team on sales and business development, with a strong focus on outbound and lead generation:
- Research and identify potential customers in the manufacturing industry
- Reach out to potential customers via email, LinkedIn and phone
- Qualify leads and help turn initial conversations into demos
- Test and improve outreach messaging and sales approaches based on what works
- Keep our CRM and sales pipeline organized and up to date
- Work closely with our founder on target accounts, outreach and new opportunities
Requirements
You don’t need years of experience, but we’re looking for someone who has already had some practical exposure to sales or business development and genuinely enjoys talking to potential customers. We're looking for someone who:
- Is currently enrolled in a university program (Bachelor or Master)
- Has some practical experience in sales, business development or outbound, for example through an internship or working student role
- Is comfortable reaching out to new people via email, LinkedIn and phone
- Is confident communicating with different people and interested in understanding their businesses and challenges
- Is curious and willing to test different approaches rather than just following a fixed script
- Is fluent in German and English, with strong written and spoken communication skills
- Is available either as a working student or for a full-time mandatory internship (ideally 3–6 months)
- Is flexible to work later hours occasionally to connect with leads in the US
Benefits
- Build real B2B sales experience: Work directly on outbound, lead generation and new opportunities in an early-stage AI company
- Real responsibility from day 1: Take ownership of outreach and opportunities that can turn into new customers
- Direct collaboration with the founder and the tech team: Understand our product, customers and market from different angles
- A flexible, supportive, and open work environment: Clear communication, fast feedback and learning by doing
- Flexible working hours & hybrid setup: Work remotely or from our co-working space in Berlin Mitte, whatever helps you do your best work
- Company laptop: We'll provide the equipment you need for your work
If this sounds like your type of challenge, we'd love to hear from you! Don't worry if you don't tick every single box. If you're excited about the role, willing to learn and ready to take ownership, apply anyway!
