Description

Paymentology is the first truly global issuer-processor, giving banks and fintechs the technology, team, and experience to rapidly issue and process Mastercard, Visa, and UnionPay cards across more than 50 countries, at scale.

We already have a team of amazing Account Managers who work across four different continents and now we need you!

As a Account Manager at Paymentology, you will be responsible for delivering world-class service to our key clients across the European region.

Our main goal is to be a “trusted advisor” to our clients, not just a “service provider” when it comes to payment solutions. You will work with your team across our portfolio of clients; adding value, deepening the relationships, and enabling our clients' businesses to thrive.

  • Advocate for clients within the organization to drive improvements.
  • Create annual client success plans highlighting their annual objectives.
  • Proactively identify opportunities for upselling additional services or features.
  • Assist with contract renewals and negotiations.
  • Monitor client health and implement initiatives to retain at-risk clients.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with key client stakeholders.

Data Analysis and Reporting:

  • Use data analytics to assess client performance and identify areas for improvement.
  • Regularly report on key performance indicators (KPIs) and make data-driven recommendations.
  • Report quarterly on annual success plan tracking and achievements. Make recommendations/changes as required.

Communications:

  • Establish and maintain strong  client relationships through regular on-site visits  (if applicable), telephone/Zoom calls, and email communication.
  • Work closely with external partners (card schemes, banks, vendors, etc.), suppliers, plus internal teams like Growth, Customer Support, and Technical.

What it takes to succeed:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Marketing, Finance, or a related field is preferable but not mandatory.
  • 7 years of experience in account management, sales, or customer service supporting premier/enterprise-level clients, in fintech or SaaS companies.
  • Previous experience in the payments domain and of managing stakeholders.
  • Time management and multitasking skills to handle multiple tasks and clients across time zones at once.
  • Previous exposure to working in a quickly changing environment and an agile mindset to navigate change.
  • Exposure to an industry or business that runs 365/24/7.
  • A strong sense of urgency and the ability to jump on client requests as they come up.
  • An ability to grasp new technologies, in addition to demonstrated interest in working for a fast-paced fintech at the cutting edge of global payment technology.
  • A resilient mindset, ability to work under pressure, and focus on successful outcomes.
  • Excellent analytical skills for tracking and interpreting client data
  • Strong negotiation skills to renegotiate contracts and pricing with clients.
  • Attention to detail
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
  • The ability to recognise opportunities for new services and products and to act accordingly, taking measured risks into account.
  • The ability and willingness to find out what the customer wants and needs and to act accordingly, taking the organisation’s costs and benefits into account.
