The Role
Manage strategic merchant accounts, build long-term relationships, increase financing volume and share of wallet, and support new deal closing and onboarding. Train merchants on Wisetack’s financing offerings, communicate customer feedback cross-functionally, and collaborate with support and customer operations teams. The role requires quota-carrying account management experience, strong communication, growth orientation, and the ability to manage high-visibility accounts.
Summary Generated by Built In

Since 2018, Wisetack has been building transparent and intuitive consumer lending products that help service-based businesses thrive (think HVAC companies, veterinarians, or auto repair shops).

Our leadership team comes from top fintech companies such as Lending Club, Affirm, and Varo Money. And we’re backed by leading VCs, including Insight Partners, Greylock, Quadrille, and Bain Capital Ventures (investors in Airbnb, LinkedIn, Instagram, Dropbox, and more).

Having raised $84M, we’re a well-funded startup and have invested in people and technology while growing our partnerships — responsibly.

We’re also proud to have received recognition from the fintech world. Awards we’ve won include:

  • Ranked #21 on 2024 Inc. 5000 based on revenue growth
  • Ranked #15 on 2024 Deloitte Fast 500 based on revenue growth
  • 2024 Best Embedded Finance Solution for Banking Tech Awards
  • 2023 Best Consumer Lending Program by Tearsheet
  • 2023 Best Point of Sale Product by Fintech Breakthrough

But what you’ll find us gleaming about the most is the recognition from our own customers, particularly our sky-high NPS rating of 79. (For reference, the average score is 44 for financial services and 36 for SaaS companies.)

As a result of our efforts in building this healthy company culture, we’ve been nominated to several Great Places to Work lists, such as Best Small Workplaces, Best Workplaces in the Bay Area, and Best Workplaces in Financial Services & Insurance.

Like any startup, we’re in it for the long haul, and we’re looking for people willing to join our journey of building something special together.

This process starts with our company values, which guide us in everything we do — and have played a critical role in our success. We valiantly abide by them, and would expect you to do the same:

  • Put customers first (that’s our M.O.)
  • Act fast (leverage our startup environment).
  • Lead the way (show and tell).
  • Take ownership (everyone is hands-on here).
  • Be a good human (no egos, build financial products that do right by people).

  • Help new and existing merchants get up to speed quickly on our offerings.
  • Communicate merchant needs and feedback to the broader organization (especially product, marketing, and partnerships).
  • Actively collaborate with the support and customer operations team to ensure we’re doing what we can to create consistent experiences, sharing learnings, and consolidating feedback. 
Requirements
  • Bachelor’s degree in business administration, marketing, communications, or related field
  • 4+ years experience in a quota-carrying, customer-facing role, such as account management, sales, or customer success
  • Comfort with the types of technology we use as a team: Salesforce, Tableau, Salesloft, Slack, Google Suite, and Confluence, to name a few
  • Demonstrated ability to leverage AI tools to drive efficiency and scale account management workflow 
  • Excellent communication skills (written, verbal and presentation), with the ability to adapt your style for different stakeholders, from technical teams to executives
  • A growth-oriented mindset, you thrive in dynamic environments and can pivot quickly to adapt to changing circumstances
  • Proven ability to drive growth and manage large, high-visibility accounts
  • Where necessary, meet with merchants onsite
Bonus points
  • Experience with a startup
  • Experience in consumer financing, lending, financial technology or home services software 
Conclusion

The range of base salary for the position is between $90,000 - $126,000, plus $22,000 annual discretionary bonus, equity, and benefits. Please note that the base salary range is a guideline, and individual total compensation will vary based on factors such as qualifications, skill level and competencies.

What We Do

At Wisetack, we’re building financially-responsible consumer lending products that help service-based businesses thrive. We offer consumers a way to finance a purchase by paying in monthly installments. Founded in 2018 by a team of experienced fintech veterans whose prior experience includes PayPal, LinkedIn, Lending Club, Affirm, Amazon, and other leading companies, Wisetack is a well-funded early stage startup with strong early customer traction. We’re backed by leading VCs, including Insight Partners, Greylock, and Bain Capital Ventures, investors in Airbnb, LinkedIn, Instagram, Dropbox, and many more. We raised a $45M Series B and 2021 and have grown YoY exceeding our revenue goals! This is a fun stage in any company's lifecycle where we've got the core foundation built and a clear path to success, but you'd still be joining early enough to help shape the future of the company and learn a ton along the way. Business Insider named us one of the 70 most promising startups changing the world of finance and LendIt Fintech named us the best Emerging Lending Platform in their recent Industry Awards. The external recognition is great, but we're equally -- if not more -- happy with the recognition from our customers. Our current NPS rating is a sky-high 78. We're proud that we're building a product that customers love.

Why Work With Us

We start with our customers. Our NPS (Net Promoter Scores) are sky high & we win industry awards because the entire company is laser-focused on delivering an excellent customer experience. We're an early stage company and growing fast. Anyone who joins is guaranteed to learn. We like to promote from within so there is a ton of opportunity ahead!
