SumUp Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
Business Development Manager - Payments & POS

Full-Time | 1-Year Fixed Term Contract



Salary: £42,180 + Car Allowance £6,000 + Incidentals £2,160 (OTE £70,360)




High performers can exceed £100K +++




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




Ready to take ownership of your territory and maximise your earning potential? Apply now and let's have a conversation.
