# Founding Sales / First Sales Hire

> Talent Voyager · Gothenburg, Sweden (Hybrid) · — · Posted 2026-05-07

**Workplace:** hybrid

## Description

Are you driven, curious, and excited by the idea of building something from the ground up?

One of our clients — an early-stage tech company within AI-powered surveillance solutions for construction sites — is looking for their very first sales hire.

The company is developing smart technology that helps construction companies improve safety, prevent theft, and gain better control on-site. Now they are looking for someone who wants to take ownership of the commercial side and grow together with the founders.

This is not a traditional sales role.

This is a founding sales opportunity for someone who enjoys opening doors, creating relationships, and building business from scratch.

You will:

-   Prospect and open new accounts within the construction industry
-   Book and run meetings with site managers and decision-makers
-   Own the full sales cycle from first contact to closed deal
-   Help shape the sales strategy and go-to-market approach
-   Work closely with the founders and have real influence on the company’s growth

This role is ideal for someone with a strong hunter mentality who enjoys being out in the field, meeting customers, and creating opportunities.

## Requirements

### We Think You Might Be Someone Who

-   Has experience within B2B sales
-   Enjoys outbound sales and new business
-   Understands the construction industry and its culture
-   Is relationship-driven but also highly proactive
-   Likes responsibility and working independently
-   Wants more than “just another sales job”

### Big Plus If You Have

-   Experience selling into the construction industry
-   Existing network within construction
-   Background from similar industries such as equipment, workwear, services, or technical solutions
-   Experience from competitors or adjacent markets

## Benefits

### What’s Offered

-   Opportunity for equity / ownership
-   A chance to become the company’s first commercial hire
-   Direct collaboration with the founders
-   High impact and high responsibility from day one
-   The possibility to build something long-term and meaningful
