About Primer
Primer's account executives sell merchants a single layer that sits over every payment processor they use (a localized checkout, one card vault, no-code routing and fallback workflows, network tokenization, reconciliation and cost reporting), argued on authorization-rate uplift and lower processing cost to founders, CFOs, CTOs and heads of payments. Selling splits into an enterprise team for strategic and enterprise accounts and a growth team for mid-market and SMB, with solutions engineers carrying the technical case from discovery through integration and technical account managers watching auth rates, routing and tokenization coverage once a merchant is live. Six of the 15 sales openings are in EMEA, which it calls its most mature region: a UK-based head of sales who carries a personal number while running the AE team, a senior manager to build the pre-sales team, AEs for French mid-market and for Cyprus, a technical account manager and an analyst modelling Salesforce data for the go-to-market team. Another six are in APAC, among them two Singapore AE seats (one asks for business Mandarin), a partnerships manager building partner-originated pipeline from Singapore or Hong Kong, a revenue operations associate and a solutions engineer in Australia. The US has three: an enterprise AE for the Northeast, a mid-market AE in San Francisco or Washington and a senior solutions engineer around New York.
