About the role

We're looking for an Account Executive to join our new SME team, selling into the eCommerce, SaaS and Professional Services industries. These are fast-growing businesses operating internationally, and we're the only fintech with the payment infrastructure, software and AI layer to streamline how they get paid, manage treasury and pay suppliers from one system. Your job is to understand their priorities, surface where their finance systems are holding them back, and build the case for change.

What you will be doing

Pipeline and new business generation

Territory planning: prioritising accounts and the people worth reaching out to, as well as identifying routes in through partners or leadership connections.

Owning your outbound strategy: building a hypothesis on what a business is prioritising and where things are likely breaking, then getting to the right people. Our product evolves quickly, so we need reps who develop new angles as they open up.

Running a proven sales process, and iterating on it: understanding a business's priorities, the challenges preventing them from executing, and building the ROI case with the customer.

Forecasting: using MEDDPICC to know where you are in a deal, where the gaps are, and to forecast accordingly.

Cross-functional collaboration

Implementation and account management: coordinating implementation and handover, including the mutual action plans that keep everyone aligned on timelines and get the customer adopting quickly.

Product: relaying customer insight to the product team and influencing roadmap priorities.

Marketing: working together on ABM campaigns, competitive positioning and customer case studies.

What you bring

Experience

Ideally 3+ years of B2B software or fintech sales experience, with at least 1 year in an outbound closing role.

If you have 2+ years in an outbound lead generation role and have been deliberate about upskilling for a move into closing, apply and tell us how.

Skills and mindset

Curious: about the industries we sell into, the people we sell to, and our own product.…
