What you’ll do Identify, develop, and close new opportunities to expand Stripe’s presence across government and public institutions. Execute long‑term sales strategies, build value in competitive environments, and lead commercial negotiations through close.
Who you are A self‑motivated professional who excels at creating and driving long‑term account strategies, cultivating executive relationships, navigating complex organizations, and leading highly technical, multi‑stakeholder deals from outreach through close.
