We are looking for someone who has a passion for building relationships, selling, and negotiating, and a desire to revolutionize the way companies transact globally.

If you have a customer-first mentality, are solution-focused, obsessively curious about everything, and have the desire to make an impact and grow yourself, our market, and our customers, then you have found your calling!

Our UK team is growing, we are currently 110+ employees, working in a hybrid work environment with a minimum of 3 days per week in our London Office @ LABS House, Holborn.

  • Owning the full sales cycle, territory management from prospecting to close
  • Be accountable for increasing revenue and new client acquisition
  • Representing Airwallex at client meetings and events (some travel required)
  • Meticulous CRM usage and forecasting

What You Bring...

  • 2+ years of experience in outbound business development, and 1+ years in a closing capacity with a spend management tool or similar is a must
  • Track record of top performance
  • Ability to understand complex technical requirements and craft solutions across multiple products
  • Passionate about sales with the ability to develop and execute territory plans
  • Strong presentation and communication skills, particularly for in-person meetings with multiple stakeholders (CXO)
  • Superior verbal and written communication skills in English

At Airwallex you’ll have the ability to make an impact in a rapidly growing, global fintech. We want you to share in our success, which is why you’ll be offered a competitive salary plus valuable equity within Airwallex. We also like to ensure we create the best environment for our people by providing a collaborative open office space with a fully stocked kitchen.
