Role overview

SumUp is looking for an experienced, field-based new business hunter to drive net new revenue through the sale of payments and full POS solutions into UK SMBs, with a strong focus on hospitality.
This role suits someone who can confidently prospect, uncover customer needs, deliver high-quality demos, and build a clear value case, all within a short sales cycle.
You'll own your territory end-to-end, including self-generation, pipeline management, pricing, and closing. This is a role for someone with a strong sense of ownership and an entrepreneurial mindset.

What You'll Be Doing

* Generate new business through proactive field prospecting, cold outreach, and local networking
* Sell payments and POS solutions to SMB merchants, particularly in hospitality
* Target established businesses (typically £25k+ monthly TPV)
* Run structured discovery to understand how a business operates and identify opportunities
* Deliver tailored product demonstrations across POS and payments
* Lead pricing discussions and close using a consultative, value-led approach
* Manage your pipeline, forecasting, and activity in line with SumUp standards
* Build and leverage referrals from your merchant base and local network

Who we're looking for

* Minimum 2 years proven B2B new business field sales experience
* Most recent roles must be primarily new business
* Proven experience selling into SMB customers (territory-based selling)
* Experience in merchant services/payments and/or POS is strongly preferred
* Other relevant technical or hospitality-adjacent field sales will be considered
* A genuine self-starter
* Full UK driving licence

What Will Make You Successful

* A "hunter" mindset: enjoys field intensity, door-to-door prospecting, and building business in the territory
* Strong commercial judgement and value / pricing ownership
* High activity with discipline: creates volume while keeping quality
* Can adapt: able to move a merchant from simple devices toward more complete POS/payments solutions
