This is one global programme, activated locally, with a clear platform to build a long-term commercial career.\nWhat You’ll Do\nMaster the payments craft: Build a deep understanding of Checkout.com ’s products, the payments ecosystem and global payment trends so you can speak credibly with prospective merchants.\n\nResearch strategic accounts: Conduct detailed research into organisations, industries, stakeholders and competitive landscapes to identify high-value opportunities.\n\nCreate relevant conversations: Use thoughtful, creative and personalised outreach across phone, email, LinkedIn and other appropriate channels to open doors with the right decision-makers.\n\nDrive growth momentum: Build a consistent operating rhythm across prospecting, follow-up, discovery and pipeline management, generating qualified meetings and opportunities for Sales.\n\nRun advanced discovery: Move beyond the pitch to understand the merchant’s technical and business challenges, priorities and potential outcomes.\n\nPartner with Sales: Work closely with Sales representatives to progress opportunities, maintain momentum and support the commercial lifecycle through to successful financial go-live.\n\nWork cross-functionally: Partner with Solutions Engineering, Underwriting, Product, Marketing and other teams to align around merchant needs and accelerate the sales cycle.\n\nLeverage AI and sales technology: Use Salesforce, intent data, enrichment tools, analytics and approved AI tools to improve research, personalisation, territory planning and pipeline accuracy.\n\nOperate with rigour: Keep Salesforce accurate and up to date, apply qualification frameworks thoughtfully and use data to understand what is working and where to improve.\n\nLearn and contribute: Take part in cohort learning, enablement and community activities, share what you learn and contribute to a supportive, high-standard team environment.\n\nWhat You Bring\nHunger and drive: You set ambitious goals, work hard and keep going when the work becomes difficult.\n\nCommercial curiosity: You are interested in merchants, payments, fintech and how businesses create value.
