Calling all super-skilled sales professionals:

The future of payments is here. 

And we need you to sell it. 

Ever since we set up shop, we’ve endeavoured to change the game.

In fact, in 11 short years, we’ve become one of the UK’s biggest names in payments. But while we’re proud of what we’ve achieved, we’re now ready to take the next step in our evolution – but we need you to make it happen.

So, what’s changed? In the past, we’ve relied on third-parties to process our payments and bring our general product offer together. But not anymore. 

We’re now a fully-fledged acquirer – a certified e-money institution – with the market-leading tools and service needed to provide the best possible experience for our customers. They’re what we’ve always been about, after all.

And we can now serve them on our own terms.

The Role

We’re looking for experienced sales professionals who can get under the skin of one of the UK’s most comprehensive new payment solution offers – then show business owners just what they might be missing without it. But we’ll make it easy. 

With next-gen card machines, easy-access business funding, integrated payments and a network of over 600 ePOS partners, you’ll have all the tools you need to make deal after deal. And, with speedy customer onboarding, you’ll be able to take your earning power to the next level, too.

The Benefits

Average commission of £320 per deal

• Residual payments every month – kicking in for our Gold and Platinum sellers who earn continuously from every account, for as long as they're a customer, with no further work from you

• Freedom of being self-employed, working your own hours and managing your own patch

• Full training – fully online training course with plenty of additional support throughout your time with us

• A short sell cycle and daily settlement of your commissions

  What we look for

• A desire to drive your sales career forward – some experience of payment or financial products can be beneficial, but not essential

• An entrepreneurial spirit

• A desire and hunger to close deals

• The confidence to deal with decision-makers

• A consultative approach

  Ready to take on the challenge? If you’ve got a passion for people, sales and tech, we’d love to hear from you.

   

  We will be hosting a webinar with our Sales Director and some of our top sellers every Monday in February and March. They will be able to give more insight into the opportunity and answer any questions you have directly. 

  By clicking apply you are agreeing to our Privacy policy and to allow us to hold your information for recruitment purposes only. We will store this information in our ATS system for a period of 24 months from your initial application. Please see a link to our privacy policy here: https://www.paymentsense.com/uk/legal/privacy/
