Sales Director

You'll own the number: from prospecting to a signed contract. If that sounds like your kind of work, keep reading.

Kreditz helps businesses assess credit and risk using real-time transaction data from PSD2 combined with credit bureau data. Kreditz is one of Europe's fastest-growing fintechs and we are a licensed credit bureau in Sweden. We are hiring a Sales Director to help us grow further across financial services, banks, iGaming, and beyond.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You will run the full sales process yourself: prospecting, pipeline, negotiation, close. You'll also manage and grow a portfolio of existing accounts. This is a critical role in our continued expansion in serving tier 1 banks and prestigious brands. You’ll be working with a modern, in-demand product suite at the forefront of credit and risk intelligence, selling to clients in the Nordics and internationally. You will challenge bank’s status quo and present a more modern and innovative way of working.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Build and manage your own B2B pipeline, from first contact to signature, across the Nordics and wider Europe.
• Grow a portfolio of existing accounts through retention, upselling and cross-selling.
• Run full sales cycles, including RFPs, tenders and contract negotiations.
• Present and demo the product to both technical and commercial stakeholders.
• Build direct relationships with C-level decision-makers.
• Work closely with Product, Marketing and Customer Success to ensure what you sell is delivered.
• Sell on value and ROI, backed by data.
• Keep track of the market: competitors, regulation, and where financial technology is heading.

WHO YOU ARE

• 5+ years in B2B sales, ideally in Finance/FinTech, SaaS or another complex tech environment.
• A track record in both new business and account growth.
• Experience closing large deals and expanding accounts over time.
• Comfortable with long sales cycles and engaging with multiple internal and external stakeholders.
• Experience with tenders, RFPs and legal/commercial negotiation.
• Solid understanding of finance, credit risk, banking and technology, including the regulation around them.
• A strong communicator, presenter and negotiator.
• Fluent in English, spoken and written. Swedish and/or other European languages are preferred.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience with Open Banking or PSD2.
• A background in credit information, risk analytics or financial scoring.
• Experience selling to banks, lenders or other regulated industries
• An established network within risk departments
• Experience from International sales

HOW WE WORK

You will own your pipeline and your accounts, we're not going to look over your shoulder, but we are here to help. We trust people to figure out how to hit their number, and we keep the team flat enough that you can walk up to Product, Customer Success or management and just ask.

Sales here has an edge to it: people compare numbers, and nobody wants to be at the bottom of the board. But the culture stays collaborative, a deal you helped someone else close still counts as a win, and we would rather have a team that pushes each other than one person carrying the quarter alone.

You are expected to ask questions, challenge how we do things, and take on more than what is in this job description.

We work from our newly revamped offices in Danderyd four days a week with one day each week you have the option to work from home.

WHAT WE OFFER

• A role where your pipeline shows up directly in the business's results, not buried in a big org chart.
• A flat, collaborative team that also likes winning.
• On-site gym, sauna and sports center, plus a wellness allowance.
• Competitive salary and commission based on performance.
• Opportunity to shape a fast growing Fintech in its domestic and international expansion
