Payment specialist | Director | Startups

We’re building a company to fix recurring payments at the core - acting as the intelligent middle layer between banks and businesses.

The UK’s £100B+ recurring payments infrastructure is outdated and full of friction. Our platform is under development, the tech roadmap is clear, and we’re now looking for a commercial co-founder who can start bringing in leads and closed deals - not just conversations.

Your Role:

• Own the commercial side - sales, partnerships, go-to-market.
• Bring in customers from day one (we’ve identified our target segments).
• Use your network - warm intros beat cold outreach.
• Know our competitors and help us beat them.
• Work directly with the Founder & CTO to scale from day zero to something big.

You Are:

• A closer. You’ve led B2B sales and built GTM strategies in fintech, SaaS, or payments.
• Deeply connected in UK fintech or SME channels - you know how banks and small businesses buy.
• More founder than employee - you want equity, ownership, and impact.
• Hungry to help reshape how recurring payments work in the UK and beyond.

What’s on the Table:

• Leadership seat from day one
• £750k raise in progress – join just before the inflection point
• Flexible structure – capital contribution preferred, not required
• This role is remote-first, but you must be based in the UK
• You must be available for in-person meetings in London when needed (typically investor or partner-facing)
• No visa sponsorship available – you must already have the right to work in the UK
