We're building infrastructure that makes crypto payments easier for businesses across Africa and beyond.

- Sales Execution: Conduct discovery calls, product demonstrations, commercial discussions, follow-ups, and negotiations to move qualified prospects through the sales process.
- Partner Relationship Management: Build and maintain strong relationships with existing and prospective partners, understand their business needs, and identify opportunities for deeper collaboration.
- Transaction Growth: Work with partners to increase product adoption, reactivate inactive accounts, and grow transaction volume.
- Sales Pipeline Management: Develop and maintain a structured pipeline of prospective partners, tracking progress from initial outreach through conversion and activation.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with the existing sales team member, B2B Marketing, Product, Engineering, Legal, Compliance, and other relevant teams to coordinate sales activities, support partner onboarding, and drive partner activation and transaction growth.
- Commercial Negotiations: Negotiate partnership terms and commercial agreements within approved company guidelines and in collaboration with relevant internal stakeholders.
- Industry Representation: Represent Breet at relevant industry events, conferences, and networking opportunities to build relationships and expand the company's B2B presence.
- Partner Onboarding and Activation: Coordinate with technical, compliance, and other internal teams to facilitate partner onboarding and support the transition from signed agreements to active transactions.
- Strategic Partnership Development: Identify opportunities for strategic alliances, referral partnerships, and other commercial relationships that can expand Breet's reach and revenue potential.
- Additional Responsibilities: Perform other duties relevant to the role as may reasonably be assigned from time to time.
What We're Looking For
- At least 4 years of experience in B2B business development, strategic partnerships, or sales, including at least 2 years in fintech, payments, or crypto.
- Proven track record of managing the full sales cycle, from prospecting and qualification to negotiation, closing, and partner activation.
- Experience selling to businesses across African markets, preferably in fintech, payments, or financial services.
- Experience selling APIs, payment infrastructure, or other technical B2B solutions is strongly preferred.
- Familiarity with APIs, stablecoins, cryptocurrency infrastructure, or digital payments.
- Strong commercial acumen and the ability to identify, evaluate, and pursue valuable business opportunities.
- Excellent communication, presentation, negotiation, and relationship management skills.
- Experience managing sales pipelines, maintaining CRM records, and tracking performance metrics.
- A proactive, results-oriented mindset, with the ability to work independently and take ownership of commercial outcomes.
What Success Looks Like
You'll build a strong pipeline of qualified businesses, independently manage partnership opportunities from first contact through onboarding and activation, establish valuable business relationships, and drive measurable growth in Breet's B2B partnerships and transaction volume.
