Founding GTM Lead – France

Telli builds and deploys consumer-facing AI voice agents at scale for B2C companies, handling millions of calls for customers such as Sky, Enpal and Engel & Völkers. As Founding GTM Lead for France, you open the French market from zero: you build the pipeline, close the first logos, and then build the team around the motion you validated.

Missions

  • Generate pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, events and your own network in France.
  • Run the full sales cycle end-to-end, from first contact through negotiation, contract and deployment, on deals of all sizes.
  • Win key French logos and establish Telli as the reference AI voice platform in the market.
  • Adapt Telli’s playbook, messaging and positioning to the French market and its regulatory context.
  • Feed structured customer insight back to product, marketing and strategy.
  • Hire and lead the French sales team once the motion is proven.

Profile

  • 2+ years in fast-paced environments such as startups or tech sales, ideally selling to B2C companies.
  • Proven ability to build pipeline independently and close without handoffs.
  • Entrepreneurial, high-agency and comfortable operating without an established playbook.
  • Leadership potential and desire to hire and develop a team.
  • Native or near-native French; fluent English.
  • Willing to travel frequently between France and Telli’s Berlin headquarters.
