About the role
Are you passionate about opening doors, winning new business, and building relationships with leading financial institutions?
As a Senior FX Sales Executive, you'll play a key role in expanding DIGITEC's presence, with a strong focus on acquiring new clients and developing strategic business opportunities within the FX market.
We're looking for a proactive, commercially driven sales professional who thrives on identifying opportunities, building a pipeline from the ground up, and turning prospects into long-term clients.
You'll take ownership of the full sales cycle, from prospecting and initial engagement to commercial negotiations and closing deals. Working closely with our global Sales, Product, and Client Services teams, you'll introduce DIGITEC's innovative FX solutions to banks and financial institutions.
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys the challenge of winning new business, values autonomy, and wants to make a direct impact on our international growth.
The position is based in our London office, with hybrid working (2 days a week in the office).

- Identify, develop, and win new business opportunities with banks and financial institutions, with a strong focus on new logo acquisition.
- Build and manage a robust sales pipeline through proactive prospecting, networking, and strategic outreach.

- Establish relationships with senior decision-makers across FX Trading, Treasury, Technology, and other relevant business areas.

- Deliver compelling product presentations and demonstrations, translating complex FX technology into clear business value.
