Country Manager Spain (m/f/d)

Your Mission

We are transforming weeks of real estate consulting into well-founded real-time analyses – and in 2026, we're bringing this to Spain. You will make this a reality on the ground in Madrid.

syte is a fast-growing, AI-powered geo-intelligence platform redefining real estate decisions. Founded in Münster in 2021, we are now a team of over 35 people with more than 200 clients in the DACH region – from project developers to asset and investment managers, brokers, banks, and municipalities. Our platform analyzes over 62 million parcels and 55 million buildings in real-time, delivering in minutes what previously required weeks of consulting. For this, we have been awarded the German AI Award and named PropTech of the Year.

Spain is one of our first markets outside the DACH region. As Country Manager Spain (m/f/d), you will be syte's first person on the ground – the face of the brand and the trusted voice of our platform in every customer, partner, and industry conversation.

Spain is a relationship-driven market – trust is built personally, over time, in Spanish. The data situation is also challenging: fragmented municipal regulations, LIDAR-based 3D modeling, and a planning landscape that differs from Comunidad to Comunidad. You know this market and understand how to open doors that remain closed to others.

This is the most entrepreneurial role at syte in 2026: You will implement the playbook that determines whether syte wins Spain.

Your Responsibilities

• Brand Ambassador: You are the voice and face of syte in Spain – at events, on stage, in meetings, on LinkedIn. You represent who we are, what we stand for, and what we are building.
• Sales Responsibility Spain: You lead the entire Spanish customer conversation – from the first contact to the signed contract. Discovery, demo, pricing, negotiation. You are the person every Spanish prospect speaks with.
• Pipeline Building: Cold outreach, warm intros, events, panels. You don't wait for inbound. You know Spanish project developers, asset managers, architects, and investment managers – and you don't hesitate to pick up the phone.
• Industry Presence: You represent syte at relevant events – SIMA, SIMAPRO, MIPIM, PropTech Connect. You build syte's reputation in the Spanish market, one conversation at a time.
• Focus on First Customers: You personally onboard the first Spanish customers and stay closely connected to them. Their success is our reference, their feedback shapes our roadmap.
• Market Radar: You translate the Spanish reality into clear input for Lena and the product team – which regulatory layers are missing for Spanish workflows, how architects and developers actually work, which segments convert first, and where cultural nuances change the message.
• Partnerships and Advisors: You take over and further develop syte's existing Spanish relationships and bring new ones into the network – from innovation-minded architects to institutional developers and digitally thinking asset managers.

Your Profile

• Your Network is Your Strongest Asset: You have real, current relationships with decision-makers in the Spanish real estate industry – developers, architects, asset managers, investment managers. People answer when you call. You can name 30+ accounts where you could start tomorrow.
• Technical Proficiency is Non-Negotiable: You understand AI, geo-intelligence, data products, and B2B SaaS deeply enough to demonstrate, discuss, and defend our platform to experienced real estate professionals as well as technical buyers.
• Experience in the Spanish Real Estate Market: You have worked with or sold to developers, asset managers, architects, or investment managers in Spain. You know the planning system, the Catastro, the Comunidades, the rhythm of this market – and how decisions are actually made here.
• Track Record in B2B SaaS Sales: You have closed real ARR contracts and know what a consultative sales cycle looks like. PropTech experience is a plus, not a must.
• Hunter Mentality: You are not afraid of the phone. A "no" is not a setback, but motivation. You have grit and want to win. Ambiguity motivates you to find solutions, and you report clearly.
• Communication Skills: Spanish is your native language, and you have excellent business Spanish and English, both written and spoken. You can explain complex things simply. German language skills are a plus.
• Residency in Madrid or the willingness to relocate there from day one.
• Work Permit for Spain.

Why syte?

You are syte's first hire outside Germany in Southern Europe. This carries weight. This role is designed to grow with the market: If we build Spain well together, the next conversations will be about your team, your area of responsibility, and your mandate to bring syte to Portugal, Italy, and beyond. We are not looking for someone to fill a position. We are looking for the person who will lead syte's Southern European expansion long-term – starting here.
