Attributes We Value

We hire successful builders with founder-like energy who want real impact, accelerated learning, and true ownership. You bring strong role-related expertise and sharp thinking, and you’re motivated by our mission and operating principles. You move fast with good judgment, dig deep with curiosity, and make decisions from first principles, balancing speed and rigor.

You're humble and collaborative; turn zero‑to‑one ideas into real products, and you “get stuff done” end-to-end. You use AI to work smarter and solve problems faster. Here, you’ll tackle complex, high‑visibility problems with exceptional teammates and grow your career as we build the future of global banking. If that sounds like you, let’s build what’s next.

Why this role

We’re evolving our go-to-market engine and enterprise partnerships, and we need a strategic operator to drive cross-functional programs that unlock growth. You’ll be the central coordinator for some of Airwallex’s largest, most strategic accounts globally. You’ll guide these major partners across various work streams and products from onboarding through to expansion - unlocking new value, advocating for their needs, and acting as their trusted navigator across Airwallex’s product suite. You are the glue: answering day-to-day queries, spotting emerging trends and risks, and collaborating internally to drive proactive solutions. Your mission is to maximise client lifetime value, enable operational excellence, and shape product strategy by surfacing deep customer insights.

What you’ll do
Strategy and planning
  • Build and own program charters that align executive priorities, customer outcomes, and commercial objectives; define scope, milestones, decision forums, and success metrics (OKRs).

  • Develop fact-based recommendations using customer, product, and commercial data; prepare executive-ready materials to support prioritisation and trade-offs.

Enterprise program leadership
  • Orchestrate multi-workstream delivery from onboarding through continuous expansion; remove blockers, manage risks/dependencies, and ensure seamless execution

  • Run MBRs/QBRs that focus on value realisation, roadmap alignment, and measurable outcomes; capture and escalate insights to inform product strategy.

Product and commercial enablement
  • Become an expert in Airwallex’s product suite; identify where new capabilities or integrations unlock step-change value for enterprise customers.

  • Shape product direction by translating client use-cases and quantitative evidence into clear requirements and ROI narratives.

Insights and analytics
  • Instrument and monitor leading indicators for program health (deployment timelines, API usage, payment success rates, fraud/chargebacks, operational SLAs, CSAT/NPS).

  • Build simple models to assess business cases, scenario outcomes, and sensitivity (pricing, FX, LPM mix, settlement options).

Stakeholder management and communication
  • Engage stakeholders from C‑suite to operations on both the customer and Airwallex side; drive crisp decisions and hold owners accountable.

  • Communicate progress, risks, and mitigations with clarity; create executive materials that are concise, visual, and action‑oriented.

Who you are

We’re looking for people who meet the minimum requirements. Preferred qualifications are great to have, not mandatory.

Minimum qualifications
  • 6–10+ years’ experience across top-tier management consulting, investment banking, revenue/GTM operations, or enterprise account management, specialising in managing complex payment ecosystems

  • Proven track record leading complex, multi-stakeholder programs from strategy through execution with measurable outcomes.

  • Strong problem structuring, quantitative analysis, and executive communication skills; ability to convert ambiguity into an actionable plan.

  • Demonstrated experience influencing without authority and driving cross-functional alignment across Product, Engineering, Sales, Finance, and Legal.

  • Proficiency with business analysis and reporting tools (e.g., Excel/Sheets modeling; familiarity with BI tools such as Looker/Tableau; SQL a plus).

Preferred qualifications
  • Payments, fintech, SaaS, or platform experience (checkout, payment methods, risk/fraud, FX, settlements, reconciliation, enterprise integrations).

  • Experience with pricing/packaging, segmentation, or GTM design; exposure to experimentation frameworks and revenue attribution.

  • Familiarity with CRM and work management tools (e.g., Salesforce, Jira, Asana) and program governance best practices.
