French-Speaking Head of Sales (Belgium)

Job Description

Welcome to Huble 👋, HubSpot’s 2024 global partner of the year! We are a global HubSpot, AI, marketing & creative consultancy enabling mid-market and enterprise businesses move faster, adapt smarter, and innovate freely—by building their business around HubSpot’s CRM. We believe in striking a balance between professionalism and being human.

👀 Who we're looking for:

A driven, senior sales professional to own and grow new business across the Benelux region, in particular in France & Belgium. This person will be responsible for building Huble's commercial presence in the region, developing pipeline from the ground up and establishing Huble as the go-to HubSpot partner in the market.

This is a hands-on, quota-carrying individual contributor role to start. As the region grows and the team expands to support it, we expect this individual to step into a sales leadership position — taking ownership of the Benelux team and continuing to drive the region's growth.

The ideal candidate is an experienced B2B sales professional with a background in digital consultancy, CRM, MarTech, or a related technology services environment. You are comfortable running the full sales cycle independently, energised by building pipeline from scratch, and motivated by the prospect of owning a region — not just a quota.

Fluency in French & English is essential. We require someone who can represent Huble credibly — in the language and culture of the market. Fluency in Dutch/Flemish is not required but would be ideal. The role covers the Benelux region as a whole but we expect it to focus primarily on France and Belgium to begin with.

The goal is to grow revenue in the Benelux region through:

• Qualifying inbound leads and managing them through the Huble sales process.
• Proactive outbound prospecting — identifying target companies, running outreach cadences, and building relationships with decision makers and influencers.
• Attending and leveraging industry events to generate pipeline and build Huble's presence in the market.
• Building and maintaining strong relationships with HubSpot sales and partner teams to surface and convert referral opportunities.

🚀 Key Performance Areas:

Management of Prospects in the Sales Process to Reach Set Target

• Taking a prospect from expressed interest through the Huble sales process, following all identified steps and adapting where necessary to close the deal, including:
• Conducting discovery meetings
• Coordinating a consultative approach and participating in proposition, commercial, and proposal development
• Building presentations and presenting solutions and commercials to prospective customers
• Responding to RFPs and tenders
• Negotiating commercial and contractual terms
• Conducting demonstrations of the HubSpot platform
• Developing a plan to reach and exceed sales targets set

Reporting on Sales Activity

• Recording and keeping all data related to sales activities in Huble systems, primarily HubSpot
• Submitting accurate forecast reports
• Reporting on levels of activity and maintaining a clear plan to reach sales targets

Pipeline Generation & Demand Development

• Working closely with the Huble marketing team to ensure inbound leads are being generated in the Benelux region
• Identifying prospects matching our Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) through outbound research and prospecting
• Running outreach programs to decision makers and influencers at target accounts, building relationships on successful connect
• Attending industry events, trade shows, and networking opportunities across the French-speaking Benelux market to generate pipeline and build brand presence
• Building relationships with HubSpot sales, channel, and customer success teams so that they turn to Huble when they need a trusted partner in the region
• Using your personal network to generate referrals and surface new opportunities

Regional Growth & Long-Term Leadership

• Taking ownership of Huble's commercial performance in the Benelux region — with accountability for growing revenue year on year
• Contributing to the regional go-to-market strategy
• Identifying opportunities to expand Huble's footprint in the region — new verticals, new partnerships, new channels
• As the region scales, playing an active role in shaping what the Benelux team looks like — with the expectation that strong performance and regional growth will create the opportunity to move into a formal sales leadership role

🏗️ To excel in this role, you should have the following:

• Fluent in French (native or near-native) and English. Dutch or Flemish is a plus.
• Proven track record of hitting or exceeding revenue targets in a B2B sales role within digital consultancy, CRM, MarTech, or a related technology services environment.
• Experience managing the full sales cycle independently, from prospecting and discovery through to negotiation and close.
• Demonstrated ability to build pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, events, and networking — rather than relying solely on inbound leads.
• Technically minded, with the ability to conduct discovery meetings and scope complex engagements without needing a sales engineer.
• Experience negotiating with C-level executives at mid-market to enterprise companies.
• Ability to build commercial proposals and solutions using a consultative approach.
• Familiarity with HubSpot CRM or a comparable CRM platform.
• Experience in or strong knowledge of the French-speaking Benelux market.
• Ambition to grow beyond individual contribution — you are someone who sees this role as the foundation for building and eventually leading a high-performing regional sales team.

⚡️ These personal qualities are key to your success:

• Naturally curious and always asking the right questions
• Coachable and open to feedback
• Proven track record of success in sales
• High emotional intelligence and interpersonal awareness
• High work ethic and self-motivation
• Strong rapport-building and relationship management skills
• Skilled at objection handling and commercial negotiation
• Commercially minded - you think about the region as a business to grow, not just a territory to cover
• Ability to prioritise and work autonomously in a distributed team environment
• Excellent time management and organisational skills
• Clear, confident communicator at all levels internally and externally
