Role at a Glance The Sales Manager is Paystand's front-line commercial leader for LatAm - the person responsible for building a high-performing sales team, driving consistent revenue results, and personally closing complex deals. This is not a purely managerial role: the Sales Manager leads from the front, carrying their own quota while owning the collective performance of a team of 4-6 Account Executives. The team sells Paystand's CFO stack to finance decision-makers (CFOs, VPs of Finance, Controllers, Treasurers) at mid-size and enterprise companies across LatAm, with an initial focus on Mexico. The Sales Manager is expected to combine sharp commercial instincts with strong coaching ability - setting the standard for what great looks like in a discovery call, a demo, a negotiation, and a forecast review. Reporting directly to the VP of Revenue LatAm, the Sales Manager is also a key voice in strategy: translating market signals into commercial decisions, presenting results and roadmaps to leadership, and helping shape how Paystand grows in the region.
