This role offers high visibility within the organisation, strong potential for career growth as the Lyon team expands, and the opportunity to help hire and build your future team. You will be a key support for the team, helping them exceed their objectives through continuous training and coaching.

Lightspeed's Field Sales team is now in hyper-growth mode. Our process has been refined and optimised on a smaller scale over the last period; now is the time to expand our team and our reach.

• Sales experience in a B2B environment, preferably in a fintech or solution-sales / technology-related environment
• Strong understanding of sales best practices
• Proven closing skills
• Demonstrated ability to meet and/or exceed sales targets
• A quantitative approach to decision-making and a love of numbers
• A passion for coaching and helping team members evolve in their sales careers
• Ability to thrive in a competitive, dynamic, and quota-driven environment
• An entrepreneurial and agile mindset, with a bias toward action and the ability to pivot when needed to meet business needs and objectives
• Excitement about building something new and taking ownership in a launch-phase environment

Even better if you have (but not necessary):
