Who you are

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum Requirements

• At least 6 years of client-facing experience at a leading technology, payments, financial services, or management consulting firm.


• A track record of creating outbound pipeline, acquiring new customers, and progressing complex opportunities through the full sales cycle.


• Experience developing and executing territory and account plans with a high degree of independence.


• Experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles, ideally with enterprise customers or platforms.


• Experience presenting to and building trusted relationships with senior business leaders.


• The ability to work effectively through ambiguity and thrive in an unstructured, fast-moving environment.


• An enthusiastic, hands-on approach to developing new opportunities and solving customer problems.


• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
