We’re looking for our next Senior Account Executive, Merchant Acquisition. Could It Be You?

Flexiti is Canada's leading point-of-sale financing provider, empowering retailers across the country to grow their businesses through flexible payment solutions. As we scale, we're looking for a driven, entrepreneurial Senior Account Executive, Merchant Acquisition, to take the lead on new merchant acquisition. We’re looking for someone who brings both the instincts of a seasoned hunter and the curiosity to use modern tools to find, engage, and close faster.

You'll own the full sales cycle across Flexiti's existing verticals and play a key role in breaking into high-potential new categories. This is a high-visibility role with real income upside, reporting directly to the Managing Director of Sales & Account Management.

• Manage inbound leads and convert them efficiently alongside your self-generated pipeline

• Build executive-level relationships with prospective merchant partners, using your network and consultative approach to earn trust and create urgency
  

Sales Execution & Closing

• Own the full sales cycle from cold outreach through contract close, coordinating with internal teams (product, operations, legal) to remove roadblocks

• Build tailored, insight-led business cases that quantify the impact of Flexiti for each prospect — demonstrating how we drive incremental revenue, basket size, and customer conversion

• Maintain a high-quality, high-velocity pipeline in Salesforce CRM with accurate stage tracking, activity logging, and forecasting

• Consistently meet or exceed quarterly and annual targets for new merchant signings, net-new loan volume, and revenue contribution
  

Market Intelligence & Positioning

• Stay sharp on Flexiti’s product capabilities and roadmap so you can sell with confidence and credibility

• Monitor the BNPL, point-of-sale financing, and vertical-specific competitive landscape to sharpen positioning and objection handling

• Bring experience selling at the executive level — you know how to get in front of the right people and build deals that stick

• Demonstrate strong consultative selling skills: you listen well, diagnose the real opportunity, and frame a compelling case around it

• Maintain disciplined Salesforce CRM habits — you treat your pipeline as a business asset, not a reporting burden

• Possess excellent communication and negotiation skills — written, verbal, and in the room

• Embody a self-starter mentality: you thrive with autonomy, take ownership of outcomes, and find creative ways to win

Additional kudos if you…

• Have experience in BNPL or point-of-sale retail/home improvement/healthcare/veterinary financing
