The Role

As a member of our UK Sales team, you will have the opportunity to be a key contributor to our future growth and success. Developing the market and acquiring new business are fundamental to our expansion strategy - and you will play an important role in driving this growth. While we have a significant client base today, the addressable market for this role remains vast.

You will represent Soldo at a senior client level, acting as a trusted advisor who delivers meaningful value and outcomes. Using data, insights, and your network, you will identify opportunities to drive finance and spend management transformation across a range of use cases.

You will be adept at building C-level relationships, challenging the status quo, and navigating complex, value-based selling processes. You will be expected to manage a high volume of market opportunities and have a proven track record of consistent over-performance in SaaS environments.

We want you to be a thought leader for our customers and prospects. You will use your knowledge and skills to articulate business value and build compelling business cases in order to help our clients identify productivity opportunities to deliver value back to their businesses. In addition, you will target specific verticals by developing true expertise in the challenges and trends of the sectors in scope. Recognising that we operate within a large ecosystem of technology vendors, partnerships are also a critical element of our growth plans and you will participate directly in how we partner for success.

In every client interaction, you will drive agility and responsiveness - characteristics that we recognise as key competitive advantages for Soldo. As part of a world-class team, we expect you to collaborate cross-functionally to deliver the best outcomes for clients. We seek individuals who bring the right experience, capabilities, and a strong cultural fit to Soldo.

  • Collaborate with the wider cross-functional team to drive value for your clients and aggressively expand markets through client acquisition 
  • Accelerate our market leadership in the decentralised spend management market
  • Act as the subject matter expert and a thought leader in the payments and spend management domains, along with the specific sectors and use cases of your target business clients
  • Build relationships with key contacts that lead to a deep understanding of client challenges and opportunities
  • Continually be aware of the market, emerging technology trends and our competitors, providing valuable information back into the business
  • Be well versed in our differentiators and continue to evolve our GTM strategy and messaging

  • Multiple years selling B2B SaaS products with a value proposition focused on transformational value to clients
