• Location: New York, NY | Full-Time | In-Office (Herald Square / Penn Station)

We are working with an ambitious, technology-led payments business that is continuing to grow across the merchant services market. Built on long-term success rather than outside investment, our client has established a strong reputation by delivering tailored payment solutions to businesses across retail, hospitality, eCommerce and specialist sectors. As the company expands, they are looking for an Account Executive who is eager to develop into a high-performing sales professional within a supportive, hands-on environment where your success is directly rewarded.

The Account Executive will learn every stage of the sales process while working alongside experienced sales professionals who provide real-time coaching and mentorship. From your first day, you'll earn commission as though you're managing deals independently, with a clear pathway to becoming a trusted closer and, ultimately, helping develop future members of the sales team.

• Review merchant processing statements and build tailored pricing proposals for prospective clients.
• Work closely with senior sales professionals throughout your onboarding to accelerate your development.

Why You'll Love It

• Uncapped residual commission with recurring monthly earnings for every successful account.
• Commission paid from day one during your training and development period.
• Continuous one-to-one coaching from experienced sales leaders.
• Clear progression based on performance and responsibility rather than time served.
• Opportunity to work with businesses across multiple industries and merchant types.
