Join Libernetix, a global payment provider redefining cross-border transactions through cutting-edge technology and deep industry expertise. Drive growth, build high-value partnerships, and scale global payment flows.
We’re looking for a Senior Sales Manager who thrives in high-risk payments and can turn relationships into real processing volume. This role is for someone who operates independently, moves fast, and consistently closes high-value deals in complex environments.
You can work remotely, but it’s important that you’re able to travel to our Riga office from time to time to connect with the team and stay aligned on strategy.
Responsibilities
The primary objective of this role is to:
- Acquire new merchants and channels (focus on direct operators in high-risk verticals and direct acquirers who offer VISA/MasterCard)
- Generate incremental processing volume
- Support channel expansion alongside CCO
- Strengthen pipeline quality and conversion rates
- Although the Sales Manager is free to target both merchants and new channels, it would be ideal if they were more 'merchant focussed'.
Their daily responsibilities:
- Proactively source and close new merchant opportunities
- Build and manage a strong pipeline of qualified leads
- Work closely with onboarding, risk, and product teams to ensure smooth integration
- Negotiate commercial terms aligned with company profitability targets
- Attend industry events and represent the company externally
- Collaborate with KAM team to ensure smooth handover post-onboarding
Requirements
Must Have:
- Experience in high-risk payments / acquiring
- Existing network of merchants / partners
- Strong commercial negotiation skills
- Ability to operate in fast-paced, high-growth environment
- Proven track record in closing deals and generating volume
- Fluent English
Nice to have:
- Experience working with or alongside specific acquirers and channels (e.g. Nuvei, Worldpay, Xpate, etc.) would be highly beneficial.
- A strong existing network of direct operators and direct acquirers (not just other PSP's) is a major advantage, particularly in our best markets (UK, EU, Canada, Australia).
- Experience in structuring more complex commercial deals - including understanding reserve & settlement frequency impacts, Interchange and Scheme fees and understanding - would also add significant value FX impact, local currency benefits, and acceptance rate optimization.
