Senior Business Development Manager


Reporting directly to the Head of Alternative Banking, you'll own new business acquisition across their highest-growth verticals: Gaming, Gambling, and Crypto. You'll be the second commercial hire on this product line, with full ownership of the sales cycle from prospecting through close.

This is a hunter role. You'll be selling a product with strong product-market fit into verticals with acute pain and limited alternatives. The demand is there, and they need someone who can go get it.

What you'll do

  • Own end-to-end new business development across Gaming, Gambling, and Crypto verticals
  • Sell their multi-currency wallet, named IBAN, cross-border payments, FX, corporate card, and treasury solutions to mid-market and enterprise clients
  • Build and manage a pipeline of qualified opportunities through outbound prospecting, events, and network-led referrals
  • Manage commercial negotiations, compliance requirements, and onboarding handoffs with precision
  • Help define the GTM playbook as the team scales, with a clear path to a leadership position

The product

  • Multi-currency wallets with named IBAN
  • Cross-border payments and FX
  • Corporate cards and spend management
  • Treasury tools and currency risk management

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of B2B sales experience in payments, fintech, or financial services with a track record of closing
  • Direct experience selling into or working within high risk verticals (Gaming, Gambling, Crypto, FX, or similar)
  • Understanding of compliance, KYB, and regulatory considerations relevant to high risk client onboarding
  • A genuine hunter mentality, comfortable building pipeline from scratch and running deals top to bottom
  • Confident engaging at C-suite and Finance Director level, able to navigate complex stakeholder environments
  • Thrives in an early-stage environment, self-directed, adaptable, and energised by building something new
