Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Professional Services roles sit at a key junction in SaaS: turning a product’s promise into real operational change for customers. This Senior Professional Services Consultant position is notable because it spans full onboarding delivery—from discovery through adoption monitoring—while also supporting complex scoping alongside Sales. The DACH focus adds a clear regional lens, reflecting how global SaaS vendors often tailor implementation and stakeholder management to local market expectations.
From a SaaS career perspective, the work builds durable implementation fluency: translating process requirements into configuration choices, running rollouts, and measuring outcomes over time. The remit also includes maintaining milestones across systems like Salesforce and influencing feature prioritisation, which is useful exposure to how customer feedback becomes product decisions. Mentoring responsibilities further signal a pathway toward lead consultant or services leadership tracks common in mature SaaS organisations.
This role tends to suit professionals who enjoy structured delivery, executive-level communication, and balancing customer advocacy with internal alignment. It fits someone comfortable moving between project governance, change management, and occasional technical depth, particularly in complex organisations. For German-speaking consultants aiming to deepen SaaS implementation expertise while operating remotely, the scope offers a clear platform for that specialisation.
