THE MANDATE Win new business for the company’s banking technology solutions by building executive
relationships, developing qualified opportunities and converting bank priorities into commercial outcomes.
Role Overview
A global financial technology company is seeking a commercially driven senior sales leader to grow its banking
technology business across the United States. The role will own strategic client engagement and business
development with banks and financial institutions, positioning and selling the company’s banking solutions to
senior decision-makers. The successful candidate will combine a strong banking-domain understanding with a
demonstrable record of winning technology deals, building sales pipelines and delivering revenue.
This senior leadership role will drive strategic sales, business development and revenue growth for the
company’s banking technology solutions across the US financial services market.
Key Responsibilities
Banking Technology Sales & New Business
- Identify, originate and close new business for the company’s banking technology solutions with US banks
and financial institutions.
- Own the sales cycle from prospecting and executive access through discovery, solution positioning,
proposals, commercial negotiations and contract closure.
- Build, qualify and manage a robust pipeline; maintain accurate forecasts and deliver against agreed sales
and revenue objectives.
- Develop account plans to win new logos, expand strategic accounts and increase the adoption of the
company’s banking solutions.
Executive Relationships & Consultative Selling
- Build trusted relationships with C-suite executives and senior leaders across banking, technology, operations,
payments, treasury and lending.
- Lead consultative conversations to uncover business priorities, operational challenges and technology-
transformation needs.
- Translate client requirements into compelling value propositions, business cases and differentiated solution
presentations.
Solution Positioning & Deal Leadership
- Position the company’s relevant banking solutions across payments, transaction banking, cash management,
liquidity, lending, core banking and digital banking.
- Lead complex, consultative enterprise sales pursuits involving multiple stakeholders, long buying cycles and
significant commercial considerations.
- Coordinate with product, presales, consulting, implementation and delivery teams to shape proposals and
support successful deal conversion.
- Track competitive activity, market developments and client feedback to strengthen go-to-market plans and
solution positioning.
Commercial & Regional Leadership
- Contribute to regional growth strategy, sales planning, pipeline reviews, forecasting and revenue
performance.
- Develop a clear understanding of target-bank priorities, buying processes, procurement requirements and
decision-making structures.
CONFIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITY | UNITED STATES
- At VP/SVP level, provide leadership and mentoring to account or business-development teams where
appropriate.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- 15-25 years of relevant experience in banking technology sales, enterprise solution sales, strategic business
development or financial-services technology.
- A demonstrable track record of personally selling banking software, platforms or technology solutions to
banks or financial institutions.
- Evidence of sales ownership, including pipeline creation, opportunity qualification, commercial negotiation
and deal closure; experience against revenue targets or quotas is highly preferred.
- Established relationships with senior decision-makers at US banks, with the ability to open doors and develop
new commercial opportunities.
- Strong domain knowledge in one or more areas: payments, transaction banking, cash management, liquidity,
lending, core banking or digital banking.
- Experience managing complex enterprise sales cycles and working collaboratively with presales, product,
consulting and delivery teams.
- Excellent executive communication, consultative selling, negotiation and stakeholder-management skills.
