Klim is a company that specializes in promoting and implementing regenerative agriculture. It acts as a partner for resilience and economic efficiency through practices that enrich soil humus, improve soil structure, increase biodiversity, and secure yields. Klim provides solutions for companies seeking to offset CO₂ by offering regional CO₂ certificates through the development of soil carbon. It supports farmers by offering financial compensation and guidance during their transition to regenerative practices. Through scientific and agricultural expertise, Klim reduces emissions within the supply chain, and it tracks, verifies, and reports carbon sequestration in the soil. Klim operates in several countries, including Germany, Poland, the USA, the UK, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic, helping scale regenerative agriculture globally with local expertise.

📋 Description

• Help shape the future of agriculture by building strategic partnerships that make regenerative farming scalable, impactful, and commercially viable across global supply chains. • Lead complex new business opportunities end-to-end: from outbound prospecting and account strategy to negotiation and signed partnership agreements. • Build and manage a high-quality pipeline of strategic enterprise accounts across the agri-food value chain. • Navigate multi-stakeholder buying environments with senior decision-makers across sustainability, procurement, sourcing, operations, and leadership teams. • Drive commercial outcomes while balancing long-term strategic partnership development. • Work closely with customers to understand their business priorities, supply chain realities, and sustainability ambitions. • Co-develop tailored regenerative agriculture and insetting solutions that create measurable business and environmental value. • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, R&D, and farmer success teams to design scalable customer programs. • Build credibility with senior stakeholders by understanding industry dynamics, commercial pressures, and evolving sustainability requirements. • Bring insights on regenerative agriculture, Scope 3, supply chain resilience, and emerging market trends into customer conversations. • Help customers navigate ambiguity and translate sustainability ambition into executable programs. • Improve sales processes, account planning, and go-to-market approaches as we scale. • Maintain strong pipeline hygiene and forecasting discipline in CRM systems. • Share market insights and customer feedback to inform company strategy and product development.

It is advantageous for this role if you live in Berlin or can be present in our office regularly. • Additional benefits for full time, permanent employees: We offer membership in the Urban Sports Club or subsidisation of the Deutschlandticket, a company pension scheme, plus team lunches (if based in Berlin) and regular team events.
