[Hiring] Senior Independent Sales Consultant @Rokt

Role Description

We are looking for a commercially driven Senior Independent Sales Consultant to accelerate Rokt Ads growth in the DACH market. This is a senior new business engagement focused on signing net-new Rokt Ads advertiser logos across market-leading German and DACH brands in ecommerce, retail, travel, finance, subscription, and consumer categories.

• This is an independent contractor engagement, not a Rokt employment contract.
• The individual will operate through their own registered legal entity (e.g. Einzelunternehmen, UG, or GmbH registered in Germany) and invoice Rokt for services rendered under a services agreement.
• The contractor will make direct advertiser connections across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
• Build senior relationships with priority prospects and establish Rokt Ads as a high-value growth channel for leading DACH brands.
• The contractor determines their own commercial approach and provides periodic updates to Rokt for coordination and reporting purposes.

Qualifications

• Significant experience in direct adtech, digital advertising, media, or performance marketing sales in Germany and/or the broader DACH market.
• Proven track record of signing net-new logos with market-leading German or DACH brands, ideally in ecommerce or performance environments.
• Native or near-native German fluency; strong professional English for collaboration with Rokt's global teams.
• Deep understanding of the DACH advertiser landscape — ecommerce, retail, travel, finance, subscription, and consumer brands.
• Familiarity with major DACH players (Otto Group, Zalando, MediaMarktSaturn, CHECK24, HRS, Scout24 ecosystem) is a strong advantage.
• Strong commercial discipline: prospecting, pipeline management, forecasting, negotiation, and deal execution.
• High ownership, resilience, and bias for action in a fast-moving, high-growth environment.
• Must operate as an independent contractor through your own registered German legal entity (Einzelunternehmen, UG, GmbH, or equivalent).
• Awareness of Scheinselbständigkeit requirements and willingness to structure the engagement compliantly is essential.
• Prior experience working as an independent consultant, Freiberufler, or contractor in Germany is strongly preferred.
• Nice to have: experience in commerce media, retail media, affiliate marketing, customer acquisition, or AI-driven advertising solutions.

Requirements

• Monthly retainer commensurate with experience.
• Performance incentive: additional compensation tied to net-new Rokt Ads advertiser logos signed, as set out in the services agreement.
• Rokt will reimburse reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the engagement, where agreed in advance.
• The retainer reflects the commercial nature of the engagement and is not linked to a fixed number of hours or working schedule.
• Invoicing and payment terms will be set out in a mutually agreed upon services agreement.
• This role is not eligible for equity, employee benefits, or paid leave.
• This engagement does not constitute a Rokt employment relationship.
• The contractor determines their own working hours, methods, and location, provided agreed commercial outcomes are delivered.
• The contractor is free to provide services to other clients on a non-exclusive basis.
