About Airwallex

Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 676,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.

We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,300 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read our operating principles to see it in full.

 

We are looking for an experienced Account Executive to join our SME & Growth team.

Airwallex aspires to partner with the most ambitious businesses globally. The SME & Growth sales team is where this partnership begins.

If you have a customer-first mentality, are solution-focused, obsessively curious about everything, and have the desire to make an impact and grow yourself, our market, and our customers, then you have found your calling!

Our UK team is growing, we are currently 110+ employees, working in a hybrid work environment with 3 days per week required in our London Office @wells&more - GPE, Fitzrovia.

  • Owning the full sales cycle, territory management from prospecting to close

  • Be accountable for increasing revenue and new client acquisition 

  • Representing Airwallex at client meetings and events (some travel required)

  • Meticulous CRM usage and forecasting

What You Bring...

  • Minimum 3+ years of full cycle sales experience, preferably selling a technical product, with a track record of top performance, supported by at least 2+ years in an outbound role before that

  • Ability to understand complex technical requirements and craft solutions across multiple products

  • Passionate about sales with the ability to develop and execute territory plans 

  • Strong presentation and communication skills, particularly for in-person meetings with multiple stakeholders (CXO)

  • Proven ability to lead complex negotiations involving bespoke commercial agreements and multi-product sales

  • Superior verbal and written communication skills in English (additional language nice to have)

  • Ability to operate in a highly ambitious and fast-paced environment

  • Strong interest in technology and a good understanding of the payment space

At Airwallex you’ll have the ability to make an impact in a rapidly growing, global fintech. We want you to share in our success, which is why you’ll be offered a competitive salary plus valuable equity within Airwallex. We also like to ensure we create the best environment for our people by providing a collaborative open office space with a fully stocked kitchen.
