Description du poste

At Alma, we believe sustainable commerce depends on fair, well-balanced trade. Because finance plays a pivotal role in business, our mission is to put it back in its rightful place - serving merchants and consumers.

Our installment and deferred payment solutions help merchants boost sales by 20% or more, increase customer loyalty, and deliver a seamless shopping experience - without encouraging bad debt.

As the buy now pay later leader in France and active in 10 European countries, we've empowered over +25,000 merchants and 10 million consumers.

With 380+ Almakers and €100M+ ARR, Alma is scaling rapidly across Europe as a member of the Next40, and we're just getting started!

About the team

The Merchant Activation team's mission is to set merchants up for success and maximise TPV by providing an efficient onboarding journey with impactful training and tools.

The team covers three scopes: Enterprise (managed by two Retail Project Managers), Mid-market, and international expansion across Italy and Spain. The numbers speak for themselves: by May 2026, the team had already launched more retail networks than in all of 2025 - including OGF (2,000 POS), Yves Rocher, and Prada across 9 European countries simultaneously.

You'll report to the Head of Merchant Activation and work closely with Sales, Account Management, and the international teams (Italy, Spain) to ensure every merchant partnership starts strong and stays activated.

This position is a CDI based in Paris.

Deploy and train retail networks in Italy and Spain

• Conduct training sessions in Italian and/or Spanish for in-store teams - from small boutiques to major retail networks

• Contribute to improving the operating model and activation KPIs (SLA, quality, TPV)

Your background might be in Customer Success, project management, or account management - what matters most is your ability to coordinate, communicate, and make things happen across multiple markets

To succeed in this job
