This is an exciting opportunity to source leads, build valuable relationships, and convert promising opportunities within the enterprise merchant space.

We're looking for an ambitious and driven individual ready to make a significant impact. You'll be a key player in identifying, prospecting, engaging with, and ultimately signing potential enterprise merchant partners and PSPs to help them optimize their payment solutions using our expertise in local payment methods.

• Hunt for new business: Actively generate and qualify leads, building a robust pipeline of opportunities.
• Build strategic relationships: Cultivate strong connections with key influencers and decision‑makers, including C‑level executives, fostering trust and identifying short and long‑term opportunities.
• Achieve and exceed targets: Deliver consistent revenue against new business goals, driving product adoption and customer satisfaction.
• Provide expert guidance: Work closely with Sales Engineering teams to ensure effortless client onboarding, and collaborate with Client Success and Marketing teams to deliver effective customer training and activation sessions.
• Seamless handovers: Develop comprehensive customer plans for efficient transition of accounts to the Account Management teams post‑sale.
• Become a local payments expert: Continuously develop a deep understanding of the UK & European payments landscape, specifically alternative and local payment methods, and clearly articulate how our solutions strategically address merchant needs.

• Proven sales experience: A track record of successful sales or direct partnership experience, ideally within the payments or fintech industry, with a clear ability to close deals.
• Knowledge of the FinTech payments space: A broad view of how and where we fit within the payments ecosystem, particularly regarding local payment methods, and how that is strategically important to our future positioning.
• Results‑driven: A proven record of high performance and achieving outstanding results against targets.
• Commercial and analytical acumen: Strong commercial, analytical, and quantitative skills are essential, with the ability to leverage data and analytics to back up assumptions, suggestions, and drive actions.
• Strong sense of ownership: Demonstrated ability to independently build and manage your pipeline and maintain high levels of productivity with minimal supervision.
• Exceptional influencing skills: Comfortable engaging with diverse customer types, including technical and C‑level stakeholders, and adept at customising messaging based on the audience.
• Fluent in English: Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential.
• Additional European languages are a significant advantage.
