VA Tech (a CRED company, formerly Happay) is CRED's B2B payments infrastructure business.
 

Role Purpose:

Own and scale VA Tech's commercial engine – pipeline, enterprise sales, and partnerships — across banks, fintechs, and enterprise ecosystem partners, converting VA Tech's platform capability into predictable, compounding revenue.

  • Own pipeline generation across banks, fintechs, and enterprise ecosystem partners.
  • Build and qualify a diversified pipeline aligned to VA Tech's priority segments.
  • Convert market opportunity into signed, revenue-generating partnerships.
  • Lead complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales cycles end-to-end.
  • Own commercial proposals, structuring, and negotiation within an agreed mandate.
  • Drive forecasting accuracy and pipeline governance.
  • Build and institutionalize partnerships across banks, fintechs, payment networks, ERP platforms, and technology partners.
  • Structure partnership models that convert into durable, multi-year commercial relationships.
  • Own partnership health and expansion for the full portfolio outside top-tier strategic accounts.
  • Institutionalize commercial playbooks, pricing frameworks, and deal-desk discipline.
  • Build repeatable processes for proposal generation, negotiation, and closure.
  • Drive consistency in commercial terms across the partner portfolio.
  • Execute VA Tech's go-to-market strategy across defined segments and geographies.
  • Translate platform capability into segment-specific commercial narratives.
  • Partner with Marketing and Product to sharpen market positioning.
  • Track competitive movement, pricing, and partnership models across the payments infrastructure landscape.
  • Convert field intelligence into structured input for Product and the Business Head.
  • Identify early signals of opportunity or risk in the banking and payments ecosystem.
  • Influence Product, Technology, Operations, Finance, Compliance, and Legal to unblock commercial outcomes.
  • Represent commercial priorities in cross-functional planning without owning those functions.
  • Build working relationships that move deals through internal approval cycles quickly.
  • Own pipeline reviews, forecasting cadence, and deal-stage discipline.
  • Build a single source of truth for commercial performance.
  • Flag risk early — no surprises in forecast-to-close conversion.
  • Own commercial reporting, contract lifecycle coordination, and deal documentation discipline.
  • Build the operating rhythm — reviews, reporting, escalation paths — that lets the function scale.
  • Coordinate with Finance and Legal on commercial terms and contract structuring.
  • Build and lead a commercial pod as volume justifies headcount.
  • Institutionalize onboarding, coaching, and performance management for the team.
  • Build a bench for future scale — this function should not be a single point of failure.
  • Have 7-12yrs of experience in Business Development, Enterprise Sales, or Strategic Partnerships within payments, fintech, or banking infrastructure.
  • Demonstrated ownership of a commercial pipeline — origination through closure — not just relationship management.
  • Proven track record structuring and closing partnerships with banks, NBFCs, or payment networks.
  • Strong command of commercial and contractual structuring — pricing, terms, negotiation.
  • Executive presence — credible in front of CXOs at banks and large enterprises.
