You’ll work with mid-market to enterprise clients in the transportation industry—including carriers, brokers, and logistics providers—where timely invoicing, dispute resolution, and streamlined payments are critical to success. With over a decade of year-over-year growth, you’ll have the opportunity to deepen relationships and expand the footprint of our market-leading software and integrated payment processing solutions across this vertical.

• Experience selling into the transportation vertical—understanding the unique business processes, buyer personas, and billing/payment complexities common in logistics, freight, and fleet management.
• Selling Software-as-a-Service experience; Payments, AR, AP, ERP, and/or FinTech experience is a plus.
• Demonstrated ability to understand an enterprise solution and manage a complex sales cycle, with deal sizes over $150K in ARR.
• An understanding of a multi-stakeholder sales environment that involves multiple products and departments. Also a student of sales, bringing solid experience with various sales methodologies, such as Solution Selling, Sandler, or Miller Heiman.
• Strong presentation skills, both in-person and online via webinar.

• Comfortable with up to 20% travel ~ two customer visits a month.
