Job Description
THE TEAM
The Form3 Specialist Sales team is responsible for maximising the market penetration of the Form3 product catalogue in the geographies where we operate. Working closely with the market-specific Customer Success teams globally, the team provides customer-facing product & domain expertise to the world’s largest banks and financial institutions, Tier 2/3 Banks and emerging fintechs. This is a newly created team within Form3 to build on our success in existing markets and play a key role in emulating that success as we expand into new territories.
Specialist Sales is a team of payments enthusiasts, deep domain experts, deal closers and relationship builders who find win/win outcomes, as opposed to just shifting units. We’re a close-knit group with a very open and direct communication style. We have a collaborative and personal approach to selling, where sharing ideas both externally and internally is key to our success. The team has a flexible working policy with an emphasis placed on 'what you do' and 'why you do it', as opposed to 'when you do it'!

You will play an important role in defining the go-to-market product messaging, having worked with the Product team to define the optimal offering for the market.
As the US Market Sales Specialist you will be focused on maximising the revenue opportunity and commercial success of their products while being a visible spokesperson for Form3 in the US market.
