This is a quota-carrying role selling regulated stablecoin payment infrastructure to fintech and payments companies across EMEA. You will run your own deals end-to-end, with the support of an existing playbook, a marketing engine, and senior colleagues.
Responsibilities
- Own a revenue quota and be accountable for pipeline generation, progression, and closed business across your territory.
- Build your own pipeline through outbound, network, and events, and convert inbound and event-generated demand.
- Own the full sales cycle end to end: prospecting, pitching, discovery, solution shaping, commercial negotiation, close, and go-live.
- Sell into payment companies, PSPs, issuers, acquirers, marketplaces, and fintechs, tailoring the commercial case to each customer's pain points.
- Drive adoption of Velocity across the EMEA payments ecosystem.
- Work closely with Product to translate customer requirements into product direction and feed market signal back into the roadmap.
- Contribute to the commercial playbook.
- Represent Velocity at industry conferences and events across the region.
Requirements
- 4–6 years' experience in business development, sales, or partnerships, with a meaningful portion in a quota-carrying closing role.
- A background in payments, fintech, or financial infrastructure, with a strong working understanding of how money moves and where the cost and friction sit.
- A demonstrable track record of hitting or exceeding quota.
- A growing network across the EMEA payments or fintech ecosystem.
- Experience selling technical or API-based products to business buyers.
- Credibility to hold a conversation with both a treasurer and an engineer.
