• Drive activation — coordinate a clean handoff to onboarding and stay accountable for the merchant going live and transacting.

REQUIREMENTS

• 2–4 years of B2B sales / business development, ideally in fintech, SaaS, payments, or SME-focused sales.

• A track record of owning a number end-to-end.

• Consultative seller — you diagnose before you pitch.

• Familiarity with payment platforms, POS systems, or e-commerce tools (Shopify, WooCommerce, etc.).

WHY THIS ROLE

• Uncapped impact — you own the whole cycle, so results are directly yours.
