Senior Account Executive - EU / UK

As Marqeta’s Senior Account Executive based in the UK, you will lead the expansion and scaling of our most impactful partnerships across larger Fintech, Financial Institution, banking, and embedded finance businesses. This highly strategic role requires a critical, pre-existing understanding of the entire payments ecosystem, particularly the issuing side, to successfully navigate complex business and technical engagements.

The European Sales team at Marqeta is looking to expand our sales footprint in Europe to focus on some of the largest and most impactful commercial opportunities in Marqeta’s evolving business.

The customers in focus include all traditional and digital banking organisations, as well as large scale fintechs, fintech innovators and companies who are looking to take control of and expand their card programme offerings to their customer base - essentially those looking for solutions to launch, scale and continuously evolve their banking products and services.

This exciting role is ideal for individuals seeking to go deep in all aspects of complex business and technical engagements and will span multiple areas of development:

• Cultivating and managing relationships with executives and entrepreneurs seeking to innovate and disrupt B2B & consumer payments;
• Working closely with internal stakeholders in Product, Legal, Compliance and Delivery to define solutions that will empower our customers;
• Originating new customer opportunities, responding to inbound opportunities, and shepherding deals from opening through to contract and closing stage.

Key to this role is an ability to deeply understand and articulate Marqeta's technology and how it brings value to the market, expertly communicate its benefits, and win the trust of the key stakeholders across revenue growth, product and technology teams of our potential partners.
