Position Overview

We're building something special — and we're looking for hungry, competitive, and coachable team members to grow with us.

As a Business Development Representative at FTNI, an Ascendant Company, you'll be on the front lines of our growth story. You'll prospect into mid-market companies across targeted industries, open doors with senior financial decision-makers, and help build the pipeline that fuels our aggressive expansion goals.

This is not a call center job. This is the starting point of a sales career for someone who wants to learn from the best, compete at a high level, and earn significant responsibility fast. The role requires full-time, on-site work at our office location.

Key Responsibilities (include but are not limited to)

Prospect and qualify prospective clients via inbound and outbound prospecting efforts, including phone, personalized video, and email campaigns

Engage CFOs, Controllers, and VP Finance executives through personalized email, phone, and LinkedIn outreach

Develop a deep understanding of your target verticals and articulate a credible, financially-grounded value proposition

Qualify inbound leads and convert interest into scheduled meetings for our senior sales executives

Maintain accurate pipeline activity and notes in CRM

Collaborate closely with Sales Management to develop account strategies and prioritize target accounts

Consistently meet and exceed monthly and quarterly qualified meeting targets

Develop and maintain a strong understanding of Ascendant and FTNI’s full suite of solutions

Attend and represent FTNI at industry trade events as needed

Stay up to date with the latest developments in the payments industry and continuously improve product knowledge

What Would Make This an Easy Win?

Bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university in Business, Marketing, Communications or related field is preferred

We value candidates with a competitive mindset and the ability to thrive under pressure—those with experience in service-driven roles (e.g. server, bartender) or collegiate athletics have historically excelled in this position.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Entrepreneurial spirit

Proactive self-starter who enjoys a challenge

Genuine curiosity and the ability to hold a credible conversation with senior executives

Resilience and coachability — you take feedback and apply it immediately

Strong organizational habits and attention to detail

No prior sales experience required — we'll teach you everything you need to know about our industry, our product, and how to sell
