Direct Sales Executive

What We DoLUX Rewards is a B2B fintech scale-up on a mission to help brands gain and retain more customers.

We give brands like Zenni, iHerb, SEMRush, and Macdonald Hotels access to 650 million high spenders, consumers, business cardholders and travellers, via our card-linked-offer partnerships with banks, airlines and engaging reward schemes (UK, EU, US, CAN, LATAM) including Mastercard Business, Capital on Tap, Revolut, Bank of America and more.

The Role

(2 available)Sales. It's one of those skills that a lot of people take for granted. In reality, we all work in sales, everyday, and it's a critical skill for SO many areas of life.

Whether it's convincing a mate to come out to dinner with you, asking a shop assistant to accept your 10% 'student' discount (when you graduated back in 2018…), or chatting to someone that you like the look of in a bar - it's all sales. How you get your message across, pique interest, answer their questions or concerns, combat any pushback, arrange next steps and so on.

That's the role! But this one's for the self-starters. You'll be building your own pipeline from scratch. You'll use email, sequences, text, phone calls, physical visits, events and anything else in your utility belt to find and win over relevant clients who are eager to learn more about how we can help.

You'll then own that client through our sales funnel - from discovery call & initial questions through to deal closure & passing onto our Onboarding Team / AMs.

We're looking for two of these - genuine hunters who've done this before and know exactly what great self-generation looks like.

Who You'll be Working With

We operate a small, hungry team of entrepreneurial people who all buy into the same vision. We're a friendly bunch, and we encourage team members to be clear about what they enjoy, don't enjoy, want to develop, and so on.

Our leadership team is highly capable of delivering in a fast-growth environment. We have experience selling into and delivering projects within the financial services and consulting sectors from our time at Visa, Worldpay, IBM, Accenture, Atos and Filament AI. We also have a number of notable investors and advisors supporting the business, including Just Eat.
