Job Description:

We work with prospective customers to help them navigate and evaluate our solutions so that any business can become a fintech. We believe that the way people interact with their finances will drastically improve in the next few years. We’re dedicated to empowering this transformation by building the tools and experiences that thousands of developers use to create their own products. Plaid powers the tools millions of people rely on to live a healthier financial life. We work with thousands of companies like Venmo, SoFi, several of the Fortune 500, and many of the largest banks to make it easy for people to connect their financial accounts to the apps and services they want to use. Plaid’s network covers 12,000 financial institutions across the US, Canada, UK and Europe. Founded in 2013, the company is headquartered in San Francisco with offices in New York, Washington D.C., London and Amsterdam. Plaid’s Mid-Market Sales team is responsible for helping the most innovative, high-growth companies across Europe become fintech-enabled. We partner with product, engineering, and commercial leaders at top startups and scale-ups to bring Plaid’s platform into their stack. We act as strategic advisors and growth enablers — we don’t just sell; we unlock financial freedom for everyone by expanding Plaid’s reach into new use cases, sectors, and markets. As a Strategic Account Executive in our European business, you will lead full-cycle sales with high-potential companies who are building the next generation of financial services. You’ll own relationships from first touch through close, driving consultative sales motions with technical and commercial stakeholders. You’ll be a key player in shaping how Plaid scales its mid-market motion across Europe.

Job Responsibility:

  • Identify and close new business with upper mid-market high-growth European companies
  • Own the full sales cycle from sourcing and qualification through to contracting and handoff
  • Guide product and engineering teams through technical evaluation of Plaid’s APIs and data products
  • Develop and maintain a healthy pipeline with a mix of inbound and outbound opportunities
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (AMs, Solutions, Risk, Product) to drive successful deals
  • Evangelise Plaid’s value across fintech and adjacent verticals
  • Contribute to the development of scalable mid-market processes and best practices in a growing region

Requirements:

  • 4+ years of full-cycle sales experience in a quota-carrying role
  • Proven success in consultative, technical sales (ideally £75k+ ACV)
  • Experience selling to product, engineering, technical and leadership
  • Strong track record of meeting or exceeding targets
  • Clear communicator with a collaborative, team-first mindset
  • A passion for FinTech, and a pulse on market trends

Nice to have:

  • Experience in FinTech, Payments, or API-first companies
  • Familiarity with the regulatory or compliance landscape in the UK/EU
  • Fluency in a second European language
