Account Executive - SME & Growth

About Airwallex

Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.

We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,700 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do.

How you'll make impact

Airwallex is growing its SME and Growth business in Israel, and this role will help build that market. You'll own the sales process from first conversation through close, while creating the systems and relationships needed to grow a new territory.

• Own the full sales cycle and territory management from prospecting through close, building pipeline across the Israeli market through a focused, AI-assisted outbound motion and close collaboration with SDR and Marketing.

• Drive new client acquisition and revenue growth across Israel through disciplined pipeline generation, coverage and conversion.

• Develop and execute territory and account strategies, identifying high-potential verticals, businesses and decision-makers.

• Represent Airwallex in client meetings and industry events across Israel, tailoring our value proposition to different stakeholders and business needs.

• Maintain rigorous CRM discipline and forecasting accuracy, with high standards for data hygiene, pipeline management and operating cadence.

You'll work from our Tel Aviv office at least three days a week as part of a hybrid setup.

Learn more about your team

SME & Growth at Airwallex is about more than closing deals. We help small and mid-market businesses solve real financial challenges across borders: getting paid globally, managing multi-currency accounts, paying suppliers, and running spend across markets from a single platform. You're not selling a feature. You're helping founders and finance leaders replace fragmented financial operations with one global system that actually scales.

It's a function for sellers who like to build, not follow a script: curious, resourceful, and comfortable figuring things out in markets that are still wide open. You get real autonomy to create value, build relationships, and move opportunities forward.

If you want to sell a serious product, solve real problems for ambitious businesses, and build your career fast, this is a place to do it.
