Business Development Director - SAP (m/w/d)

(Offices: Berlin, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Barcelona, Seville) Vicoland gives the professional services market a new dimension: Virtual Companies – “Vicos”. We invented Vicos as a new type of supplier, more efficient than traditional professional services firms (consultancies, system integrators, agencies etc.). On our AI-driven SaaS platform, freelance experts team up to form Vicos. AI agents integrate into these teams. The Vicos then act like real companies, competing successfully for large enterprise projects. Already, 100+ Vicos with thousands of freelancers work on projects for enterprise clients like BASF, Miele, Siemens or Zeiss and many SMEs. They also serve leading professional services firms as subcontractors, including Accenture, Infosys and Roland Berger. Forbes and Forrester have named Vicoland as a leading force transforming the market. Our SAP-certified platform provides the full digital infrastructure for forming and operating Vicos: marketing, finance, legal, organization – increasingly enhanced by AI agents as productive Vico members. An important focus of our growth lies in SAP services, ranging from S/4HANA transformations to highly specific SAP application modules. We are scaling our go-to-market and need a leader who sells by shaping how enterprise clients and partners think about sourcing SAP expertise in the agentic era. **Our offer to you** As Business Development Director SAP, you combine four capabilities: * deep SAP ecosystem knowledge, * understanding of AI’s role in service delivery, * strategic consulting skills, * and entrepreneurial drive.
