Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 676,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.
We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.
We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,300 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read our operating principles to see it in full.
The SME & Growth team at Airwallex partners with ambitious SMB and mid‑market businesses that operate across borders. We help them get paid, hold and convert funds, pay suppliers and issue cards globally – all from a single financial platform.
In Lithuania, we are in build mode: a lean, high‑calibre commercial team with strong backing, a large greenfield market and high expectations. You’ll build and lead the sales team to deliver sales excellence, with strong product depth and disciplined execution.
Reporting into the Head of Revenue and Growth, we are looking for a hands‑on Sales Manager to lead, coach and scale a team of Account Executives focused on SMB customers (typically 20–500 employees, with average deal size €2k+ MRR).
This is a player‑coach role. You will:
Own a team quota and be accountable for revenue performance
Carry your own sales quota on a small number of opportunities
Be deeply involved in live deals – especially complex or strategic ones
Help design and implement the sales operating system for Lithuania: methodology, cadence, pipeline standards and hiring
You will be a key operational partner and a core contributor to building our Lithuania go‑to‑market from an early stage.
The role is based in Lithuania, in a hybrid working model, minimum 3 days per week in the office.
Lead, coach and manage a team of salespeople serving SMB / mid‑market customers.
Run a high‑quality sales operating rhythm:
Weekly pipeline and forecast reviews.
Regular deal strategy sessions and call reviews.
Team enablement on discovery, negotiation, MEDDPICC and closing.
Stay close to the field:
Join customer meetings and calls.
Directly support and co‑own strategic and complex deals with your AE.
Drive sales methodology and funnel discipline:
Embed MEDDPICC and SPICED as the standard way of running opportunities.
Ensure consistent ICP / persona‑based qualification and messaging across the team.
Maintain high standards of CRM hygiene and data quality.
Build and scale the team:
Attract, hire and onboard A‑players, in partnership with Talent Acquisition.
Provide clear expectations, feedback and development paths for each AE.
Shape our GTM strategy:
Contribute to our value propositions, pitches and vertical narratives.
Partner with Marketing, SDRs and Partnerships on outbound motions and campaigns.
Own performance and reporting:
Be accountable for quota attainment, pipeline coverage and conversion.
Provide regular, data‑driven updates to the Head of Revenue and Growth on risks, opportunities and resourcing needs.
A coach and builder – you genuinely enjoy making people better and building the systems that make a team win.
Highly structured and analytical – you can move from problem (“win rate is down”) to root cause and clear action plan.
Hands‑on and low‑ego – you are happy to jump on calls, review sequences, build a deck or close a deal
Comfortable with ambiguity and 0→1 – you like working where there is no fixed playbook, and you’re excited to help write it.
Data‑driven – you use numbers and facts to prioritise, coach and decide, not just gut feeling.
Resilient and hard‑working – you like high expectations, high pace and you don’t shy away from doing the work.
4+ years of B2B sales experience, including 3+ years as a closing Account Executive on SMB / mid‑market segments.
1+ years in a front‑line sales leadership / team lead role, managing AEs and carrying a team quota.
