About Us

sunday is building the fastest, simplest way to pay in restaurants. With a quick scan of a QR code, diners can pay, tip, and leave in about 10 seconds. We believe great products should feel obvious, not complicated, and we focus relentlessly on keeping things simple while earning trust from restaurants and guests at every interaction. Today, sunday powers payments in thousands of restaurants across the US, UK, and France, helping operators turn tables faster, increase tips, and unlock valuable insights. We push ourselves to go beyond what’s expected, building with ownership, moving fast, and scaling with ambition as we tackle our biggest growth opportunity in the US.

We are seeking experienced Account Executives with a proven track record of success in fast-paced, high-growth sales environments.

• Shape Our Future: collaborate cross-functionally to improve our product and processes based on real customer feedback.
• Think Like a Founder: you’re not just selling, you’re building a business.

About You

• 5+ years of full-cycle sales experience
• Entrepreneurial spirit with the drive to lead a market launch from zero

• Natural communicator and storyteller who builds trust quickly
• Confident, organized, and execution-focused, you thrive with autonomy
• Experience selling to SMBs or enterprise hospitality clients is a plus
• Familiarity with tools like Salesforce, Microsoft Suite, and Slack

What We Offer

• $145,000 to $180,000 OTE
• A balance of in-person and remote work (in-field with restaurant partners) hybrid work setting
