The Opportunity

This is a senior, high-impact sales role with responsibility for driving growth across our payments and cash management portfolio. You will own the full sales lifecycle—from identifying and developing opportunities through to contract negotiation and structured handover to delivery.

The geographic scope will be defined jointly based on your experience and market opportunities. You will work closely with pre-sales, product, delivery, and marketing teams, and play a visible role in shaping our go-to-market execution and commercial success.

Key Responsibilities

• Owning and managing complex sales processes, from early engagement through to deal closure
• Leading contract negotiations and coordinating bid teams in competitive sales situations
• Executing go-to-market plans in close collaboration with sales, marketing, and product stakeholders
• Building trusted, long-term relationships with prospective customers and senior decision-makers
• Maintaining ownership of sales cases until structured handover to delivery
• Developing and closing commercial contracts and project statements of work
• Supporting customer-related compliance, audit, and governance activities
• Contributing to thought leadership and market positioning in the payments domain

Your Background and Experience

• A demonstrable track record of winning new, strategic, long-term customer engagements
• Strong experience within payments, cash management, or transaction banking
• Experience in B2B software or SaaS sales (an advantage)
• Proven negotiation skills, including complex commercial and contractual discussions
• Hands-on experience in drafting, negotiating, and closing contracts
• Excellent executive-level presentation and communication skills
• Fluency in English (written and spoken); additional major European languages are a plus

Who You Are

• Proactive, self-motivated, and comfortable taking full ownership and accountability
• An engaged and open-minded team player with strong interpersonal skills
• Confident in influencing, collaborating, and driving change
• Comfortable operating with autonomy and ambiguity in a growth environment
• A role model who leads by example and enjoys challenging and inspiring others
