About
the team The Startups team is dedicated to becoming the platform of choice for the top venture capital-backed startups across Europe. We combine deep subject matter expertise with strong collaboration across the startup ecosystem—partnering with high-potential companies, helping them monetise their products, scale globally, and unlock new revenue streams. As an Account Executive on this team, you'll work across the full sales cycle and have the opportunity to sell Stripe's entire product suite.

You'll identify new opportunities for startups to get the most from Stripe's expanding product suite by thoroughly understanding their needs and advising them on how to leverage best-in-class financial solutions. You'll build and drive campaigns to generate new sales pipeline and work closely with existing users to deepen their adoption of Stripe.

Who you are We're looking for a well-rounded, strategic seller who can build strong relationships with Stripe's users and manage high-velocity deal cycles. Our startup users are some of the most ambitious and demanding customers in the market—a successful candidate will match their curiosity, speed, and passion by turning challenges into opportunities. You're solution-oriented, adaptable, and know how to get things done. You enjoy technically complex sales cycles and working with diverse internal stakeholders. We're looking for someone who meets the minimum
requirements to be considered for
the role. If you meet these
requirements, you are encouraged to apply. Minimum
requirements 4+ years of sales or business development experience, preferably at a high-growth SaaS company, bank, consultancy, or venture capital firm, with a track record of top performance Strong interest in technology and the startup ecosystem Strong analytical and quantitative capabilities, including comfort with basic financial modelling Excellent verbal and written communication skills Ability to operate in a highly ambiguous and fast-paced environment Ability to understand diverse business models and build strong relationships with highly technical founders Ability to understand complex
requirements and craft tailored solutions Hybrid work at Stripe This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office). In-office expectations Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams. Working remotely at Stripe A remote location is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently live or plan to live. Pay and

qualifications, and specific location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the primary location may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process. Specific
