• Identify and unlock new market opportunities, segments, and partnership models
• Collaborate closely with Marketing, Product, Network, Data & Sales to align messaging, targeting, and go-to-market execution
• Track, forecast, and report on pipeline, conversion, and revenue performance
  
  

Team Leadership

• Lead, coach, and develop a small team of junior Business Development Executives
• Set clear targets, activity standards, and expectations for a remote team
• Provide regular feedback, deal coaching, and performance support
• Build repeatable outbound and qualification playbooks that scale

Qualifications

Experience

What we’re looking for

• 6–10+ years of experience in business development, sales, or partnerships
• Experience in fintech, B2B SaaS, payments, financial services, or financial software

• Prior experience leading or mentoring junior team members (formal or informal)
• Experience working effectively in a remote or distributed team
  
  

Skills

• Strong commercial instinct with a hands-on, execution mindset
• Ability to simplify complex products into compelling customer value
• Confident communicator with senior stakeholders and partners
• Structured, organised, and comfortable working with targets and metrics
• Coaching mindset — you enjoy helping others improve and succeed
  
  

Nice to have

• Experience building BD processes or teams from early or scaling stages
• Exposure to partnerships, channel sales, or ecosystem-led growth
• Familiarity with CRM tools and outbound tech stacks
  
  

Additional Information

Location & Travel

Why join us?

• With high ownership, you will help define how Finmo scales revenue globally
• A chance to shape the future of treasury management & global payments with a product and mission built around modern finance reality, moving money globally while improving cash visibility, liquidity control, and risk management
• A tight feedback loop between teams, where your insights materially shape what we build next
