This is a high-ownership individual contributor role focused on winning new customers and driving revenue growth. You will manage deals from discovery through close, develop strong industry expertise, and build relationships with financial crime leaders across the European fintech ecosystem.
You will operate with autonomy in a fast-moving environment, build pipeline proactively, and represent Flagright at customer meetings and industry events across Europe.

- Collaborate with Solutions Engineering and Customer Success during evaluations to ensure successful deal execution and smooth handover post-sale
Who we are looking for:
- 3+ years of quota-carrying SaaS sales experience, with responsibility for closing deals
- Proven ability to manage the full sales cycle end-to-end, from qualification through to contract signature
- Experience building trust, credibility and selling to both technical and business stakeholders
- High performer with a strong track record of building and managing pipeline and consistently exceeding revenue targets
- Experience selling into fintech, payments or banking and/or for a regtech is highly desirable
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced scale-up environment with high ownership and autonomy

What we offer:
- Competitive compensation
