About the Opportunity:

We're looking for an Associate Director who'd be responsible for new business acquisition through both internal and external business development.

There will be a sales delivery expectation through promoting our new Embedded finance proposition.

You could be drawing on your expert knowledge to deliver presentations, portfolio reviews and training to key introducers, enabling them to identify and meet their customers' card processing needs.

On other days you'll be out in the field, either virtually or physically, conducting meetings with prospective clients you have identified from your extensive network.

Your business development skills will allow you to guide these customers from initial discussion, through to agreement and implementation.

Maintaining a dynamic and active pipeline of new business opportunities is a critical requirement. Using your excellent judgement, you'll put the customer at the centre of all activities. Given the nature of the role, travel will be required.
