ABOUT UNIT

Unit is a market leader in embedded finance. We offer ready-to-launch financial services - like banking and capital - and serve millions of end-users across ~100 customers, including Wix, Honeybook, Relay, and more.

We’re repeat founders with technical backgrounds, working hard to build a successful company that we’re proud to work at. Our product moves $40b+ annually and processes 12m+ API calls daily. We’ve raised $160m+ from top investors including Insight, Accel, and 60+ angels.

THE ROLE

4 years after launch, we’re serving ~100 customers, generating tens of millions in revenues and growing fast. We believe that this is just the beginning: as more financial services make their way into software in the next 5+ years, Unit has a tremendous market opportunity ahead of it. We’re at a special moment: we’re serving some of the largest software companies building financial services, and our growth is accelerating with the new addition of ready-to-launch banking + capital.

We’re hiring a Vice President of Sales to drive demand generation among 500+ target accounts and build a brand that continues to stand out. The position is based in New York and reports to the CEO. 

We’re looking for a leader who lives in the details, obsesses with winning, and has experience managing sales in software companies that won their markets. You will join an excellent leadership team;  hire, train and manage a high-performing revenue team; and establish Unit as a category leader. For the right candidate, this is a rare opportunity to solve hard problems and help build an industry-defining company from the ground up.
