Customer Success Lead

About us

Today, the mid-market segment (300 to 5k employee companies) is vastly underserved when it comes to their procurement processes. These companies struggle with outdated and old fashioned tools, dragged down by decades of tech legacy that create more problems than they solve in the day-to-day work of their employees.

Pivot is committed to solving this by building a smart, engaging and user-friendly procurement tool for employees, streamlining purchase processes while providing the right level of control and reporting. We are creating automations and integrations that simplify the work across all finance teams, freeing them up to be more strategic... and surely happier too!

The adventure started mid-2023 with three founders, former C-levels from fintech unicorns (Qonto and Swile) and highly experienced engineer from top-notch tech companies.

Since then we’ve raised €5M in pre-seed and €20M in Series A with tier-1 investors and built a team of 50 with a product operating with +50 customers across 15 countries.

We are looking for smart, execution-driven people to join our team, with a strong focus on excellence and a desire to achieve great things as a team.
