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.

As Head of Account Management at Airwallex, you will be the strategic architect and bar setting of our post-sales growth engine. Leading a team of account managers and customer success managers through a few direct managers, you will define the GTM strategy to maximise product adoption and wallet share across our existing customer base. In this role, you are building the systems, culture, and leadership bench that will deliver exceptional commercial outcomes and scale our SME & Growth segment.

You'll work cross-functionally with sales, product, operations, marketing, and strategy to build playbooks and processes, to ensure best-in-class execution by the account management and customer success teams. The ideal candidate combines business acumen, cross-functional influence, strong data affinity, with proven people leadership and management, plus the hustle and creativity to build new approaches in a fast-moving environment.
