Sales Manager
Flywire
• As the Sales Manager for Ireland, you will be the primary owner of Flywire’s footprint in the Irish Higher Education market. • This is a unique hybrid role that combines the drive of a new business hunter with the strategic depth of a relationship manager. • Join a high-performing UK & Ireland Sales team. • Focus on driving 'stickiness' and revenue growth by optimising payer adoption and leading the charge on deep technical integrations with key Student Record Systems. • Report directly to the Head of Sales, UK & Ireland, and work autonomously to own the Irish territory, serving as the strategic partner to Directors of Finance, International Admissions, and Student Services leaders across the region. • Proactively hunt and close net-new opportunities within the Irish Higher Education and college sectors to achieve 100% market coverage. • Analyse client transaction data to identify gaps in capture rates; execute strategies to ensure Flywire is the primary/exclusive payment method for all international receivables. • Develop and execute a strategic territory plan for Ireland to meet and exceed annual revenue targets. • Build and maintain a robust pipeline of opportunities, managing the full sales cycle from discovery to negotiation and close (Salesforce hygiene is a must). • Lead and manage tender responses and RFPs for the Irish market, collaborating with our bid teams to secure long-term contracts. • Champion the move from manual processes to fully integrated payment flows. • Drive the adoption of our integrations with key ERPs (e.g., Banner, SITS), ensuring a seamless experience for both staff and students. • Conduct regular business reviews to align Flywire’s roadmap with client strategic goals. • Secure contract renewals and defend the client base against competitors by demonstrating continuous value, ROI, and payment security. • Act as the 'Voice of the Irish Customer' internally, feeding back market-specific requirements and trends to our Product and Leadership teams.
