What makes sales at CEEZER exciting?

Sales at CEEZER is exciting because we’re working in a market that’s still young, fast-moving, and closely linked to the global fight against climate change. You have to stay on top of new science, policies, and technologies, which keeps things interesting.

At the same time, every prospect feels like its own project. You need to think creatively about what matters most in their situation and build a tailored solution.

No two conversations are the same.

What led you to join CEEZER?

I came from a background in strategy consulting and international public policy, and I wanted to experience firsthand how the start-up world operates, especially in the climate space.

Tackling climate change will only succeed if the private sector plays its part, and I saw carbon credits as a tool that, when done right, can really make a difference, as they fund climate technologies, remove carbon from the atmosphere, and support communities most affected by climate change.

What also convinced me was CEEZER’s strong leadership, professional setup, and the caliber of its investors.

Which milestone or moment feels like a big win in your journey at CEEZER so far?

There are definitely partnerships I helped set up that made a real difference and that I’m proud of. But honestly, especially in the beginning it was more about the small steps. I didn’t come from a sales background, so a lot was new and took me longer than it should have. The moment I realized that things were clicking, that I could really contribute and pull my weight, was a big win for me.

(Note from the editor: Max is being humble. Besides this he has closed the largest deal at CEEZER to date).

How has CEEZER supported your professional development?

CEEZER makes a real effort to develop its people. That ranges from sales trainings, covering everything from prospecting to closing, to deep dives into climate impact science. In this market, you can only succeed if you keep learning and stay on top of new developments, whether it’s a new EU regulation or fresh research on the permanence of carbon projects. CEEZER makes sure we’re equipped to do that.

What’s it like working with the team here?

In the Revenue team, there’s a genuine sense of support and care for each other. I know sales can sometimes be associated with toxic competitiveness, but that’s not the case here. Everyone is focused on winning strategic deals, and we help each other get there. Of course, CEEZER has ambitious targets and high expectations for both quality and professionalism, which makes the work rewarding.

‍

Why is now the right time to join CEEZER in sales?

The company has matured a lot over the past year; there’s more structure, better tools, and stronger training, which makes it easier to succeed. At the same time, the broader market has moved past the “sustainability winter” fears. Companies are now becoming more practical and action-oriented about ESG.

Looking ahead, thousands of firms need to deliver on their net-zero pledges in the next few years. That won’t be possible without carbon credits and durable removals, so demand is only going to grow. It’s a great moment to be part of this journey.
