Sales Support Specialist

Every day, Global Payments makes it possible for millions of people to move money between buyers and sellers using our payments solutions for credit, debit, prepaid and merchant services.  Our worldwide team helps over 3 million companies, more than 1,300 financial institutions and over 600 million cardholders grow with confidence and achieve amazing results.  We are driven by our passion for success and we are proud to deliver best-in-class payment technology and software solutions.  Join our dynamic team and make your mark on the payments technology landscape of tomorrow. 

We are seeking a dynamic and resourceful Solutions Specialist to support our Merchant Sales Support Team in delivering exceptional service and closing deals efficiently. This role is not a sales position, but is critical to the success of the sales and support processes, acting as a trusted advisor and problem-solver for both Inside and Outside Sales Teams and prospective clients, with both presale and ongoing support.

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, is a master multi-tasker, and has a deep understanding of payment technologies, implementation processes, and service capabilities. A typical day in this role involves fielding calls from Merchant Sales Reps and resolving a variety of pre and post-sale inquiries to keep deals moving quickly and seamlessly. You’ll address questions related to supported products, pricing, system navigation, and required documentation – often managing multiple complex issues at once. The work blends phone support, data validation, and coordination with supporting teams to ensure successful onboarding and ongoing support of merchant accounts. 

Every question answered could mean the difference between winning a deal or losing a customer—so precision, urgency, communication, and relationship-building are keys to success in this role.
