Lead full-cycle sales from qualification to close, including technical discovery, product demos, ROI modeling, risk/rewards negotiation, and legal/procurement coordination. Translate partner expectations into win-able deals by aligning customer economics, interchange performance, and BILL’s appetite for rewards/CM across different spend categories. Navigate underwriting and risk decisions by understanding customer cash cycles, financial statements, pay behavior, collateral structures, and key levers that influence approval and line sizing. Influence product and payments roadmap by representing partner and enterprise customer needs around card rewards, credit, APIs, and multi-product adoption. Document and manage your pipeline in Salesforce with accuracy and executive-level forecasting discipline.
