About Questel
The buyer at Questel is almost always an IP professional: patent and trademark attorneys at law firms, and the IP, legal and R&D teams of companies, who buy its search, management and drafting software and hand it their filing, translation and renewal work. In North America the sales team out of Alexandria, Virginia is organised by segment and product, with a patent lead generation group whose business development representatives book qualified meetings for the US sales team by outbound calls and email, sales development representatives who prospect US law firms and are told the seat is a fast track to key account manager, and key account managers who either run a set of top-tier existing clients on a quarterly quota for both new business and renewals or hunt new US law firms for its AI-driven patent tools through the full cycle. The European side sells by region: key account managers for translation and international filing services cover France and Southern Europe from Paris or Sophia-Antipolis and the UK and the Nordics from London, prospecting new clients and growing existing ones, and a customer success manager in Leeds or France owns a portfolio of large Equinox clients after go-live. Behind them, a sales operations team in Valbonne runs Salesforce, the DealHub quoting tool and sales onboarding, and a sales AI lead based in Valbonne or Paris finds and builds automation for the go-to-market teams. US account seats ask for prior B2B account management, ideally in SaaS, legal or IP, while the European account seats want a record of closing large service deals and fluent English (with French for the Paris seat).

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

Pay at Questel
Stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30From our research: stated by the company, checked 30 Oct 2026
Read from its postings on 30 Oct 2026: None of the sales postings prints a figure, in the US or in Europe, and the BambooHR pay field is left empty. The European key account manager postings describe the pay only as a competitive package with an uncapped commission plan, the US key account manager posting describes a quarterly quota covering both new business and renewals without saying how each is paid, and the SDR and BDR postings say nothing on pay at all. Ask for the base and on-target earnings, the split between them, whether renewals pay at the same rate as new business, how service revenue (translation, filing, renewals) is credited against software subscriptions, and, for SDRs, whether meetings booked or pipeline closed drives the variable and what the step up to key account manager pays.
