Job Description

As an Account Specialist Team Lead at Wise you’ll play a critical role in strengthening customer relationships, driving sustainable growth, and leading a high-performing team in a fast-paced, international environment.

  • Proactive management: Develop and implement proactive outreach strategies across the team’s book of business, preventing churn and supporting customer growth;
  • Stay hands-on: You’ll manage your own select portfolio of key customers and be ready to dive "into the rabbit hole" of data or compliance whenever the team needs an expert hand.

You bring:

  • Proven leadership: You have experience leading teams or acting as a senior mentor in a fast-paced Customer Success or Account Management environment;
  • The FinTech "Edge": You understand how cross-border payments work. You’re familiar with SEPA, FPS, SWIFT, and the business financial landscape;
  • Data-Driveness and assertiveness: You are comfortable connecting the dots between operational, product, and financial data to make smart, accountable decisions;
  • Compliance mind: You have a solid understanding of KYC principles and can spot red flags that others might miss;
  • Strategic problem solving: You identify root causes and implement lasting process improvements to prevent recurring issues;
  • Adaptability: You thrive in a dynamic, fast-changing environment, adapting priorities while keeping your team aligned;
  • Right to Work: You are eligible to work in Hungary (we're not able to offer visa support for this role).

Onboarding & Tools

You’ll go through a comprehensive onboarding programme with the Account Management Team, covering product knowledge, compliance requirements, and tooling to ensure a smooth transition into the role.
