Job Level
About the role
- Own end-to-end deal execution for Tier-1 retail and telecom partnerships , from first meeting through signed agreement and launch acting as PayJoy’s senior face in the room.
- Lead, coach, and scale a junior BD team: set pipeline targets, run deal reviews, build playbooks, and develop the team into autonomous closers who can represent PayJoy at partner meetings independently.
- Operate as cross-functional PMO for active deals: coordinate with Product, Engineering, Credit Risk, Operations, Legal, and Marketing to unblock dependencies, align timelines, and ensure partner launches hit revenue milestones on schedule.
- Build and maintain financial models for each partnership: forecast originations, VGM contribution, unit economics, and ROI—presenting business cases to internal leadership and directly to partner C-suites.
- Drive pipeline discipline: own CRM hygiene, weekly pipeline reviews, stage-gate progression, and accurate forecasting tied to Mexico’s MAU and revenue targets.
- Negotiate commercial terms (revenue share, exclusivity, co-marketing commitments, SLAs) with retail and telecom partners, ensuring deals are structured for sustainable profitability and long-term strategic value.
- Serve as the escalation point for partner relationships post-launch: monitor account health, resolve operational friction, and identify upsell and expansion opportunities within existing accounts.
- Report directly to the Head of Revenue Growth Mexico, contributing to strategic planning, board-level materials, and quarterly business reviews with senior leadership.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in Business Development, Key Account Management, or Strategic Partnerships within retail, telecom, or fintech with a proven track record of closing complex, multi-stakeholder deals in Mexico.

- Demonstrated experience managing and developing junior sales/BD teams—setting targets, running deal reviews, and building repeatable playbooks that turn reps into autonomous closers.
- Strong financial modeling and analytical chops: comfortable building P&L scenarios, unit economics models, and board-ready business cases from scratch.
- Exceptional executive communication: can command a room with C-level retail executives and translate complex fintech propositions into clear partner value.
- PMO mindset: proven ability to drive cross-functional alignment across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Credit, and Ops—removing roadblocks without formal authority.
- Deep knowledge of Mexico’s retail and/or telecom ecosystem: existing relationships with key decision-makers at major chains and carriers are a significant plus.
