Account Executive - Treasury Automation & Bacs Payments

Location UK-based | Remote

Salary £50,000 – £65,000 base salary 10% commission structure + additional performance bonuses

About the Business

Our client is an established UK payments and treasury technology business entering a significant commercial growth phase following recent strategic investment activity.

The company has already developed a production-ready platform with live customers and a strong foundation within the Bacs and corporate payments space. Their technology helps organisations streamline payment operations, automate treasury workflows and improve cash visibility across finance functions.

Solutions include:

  • Bacs payment automation
  • Direct Debit management
  • Treasury and cash visibility tools
  • Corporate payment workflows
  • Finance automation and bank connectivity


The business is now looking to make its first dedicated commercial hire to help accelerate growth and shape the future go-to-market strategy.


What's in it for you? 

  • Founding commercial hire opportunity
  • Existing live customers and proven product
  • High level of autonomy and influence
  • Ability to shape GTM strategy and commercial direction
  • Strong progression opportunity as the business scales
  • Remote flexibility
  • Early-stage growth environment with strong long-term potential


The Opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to join at an early commercial stage as a founding sales hire.

The role is ideally suited to someone entrepreneurial who enjoys building pipeline, developing relationships and helping shape commercial strategy, not simply working within an established sales structure.

You will work closely with leadership to help define:

  • Sales strategy
  • Market positioning
  • Pipeline generation
  • Pricing approach
  • Customer acquisition strategy

 

This is a highly autonomous role with significant visibility and influence across the business.


Responsibilities

  • Build and manage new business pipeline across mid-market and enterprise customers
  • Develop outbound sales strategy and prospecting activity
  • Engage finance, treasury and payments stakeholders
  • Run consultative sales processes from discovery through to close
  • Help shape commercial messaging and market positioning
  • Contribute to pricing and go-to-market discussions
  • Build relationships within the treasury, payments and finance ecosystem
  • Work closely with leadership as the business scales commercially

Ideal Background

Candidates should have experience selling one or more of the following:

  • Bacs payment solutions
  • Direct Debit platforms
  • Treasury automation software
  • Cash visibility solutions
  • Corporate payments software
  • Bank connectivity or finance automation tools


Strong understanding of:

  • Treasury workflows
  • Corporate finance operations
  • Payment operations
  • Solution-based B2B sales


Experience selling into finance or treasury stakeholders is highly desirable.


What They’re Looking For

The ideal candidate will:

  • Be comfortable operating autonomously
  • Enjoy building pipeline from scratch
  • Have a consultative and commercial mindset
  • Be motivated by high-growth environments
  • Want genuine influence within a scaling business
  • Be excited by the opportunity to help build a sales function from the ground up
