About Airwallex
How you'll make impact
Own the first 90 days of the customer journey for new French customers, bringing them to their target level of activity as quickly as possible through clear plans, hands-on product configuration and fast blocker removal. You'll lead onboarding from first KYC approval, working closely with Account Executives, Account Managers, KYC, Support, Risk and Product across a portfolio of customers with different levels of complexity. You'll help customers configure and activate accounts, payments, FX, cards, Spend and payouts, while managing a proactive portfolio of partner-referred customers.
- Take ownership of each customer from first KYC approval, with a clear plan, milestones, owners and the revenue target defined at signature.
- Adapt the onboarding approach to the deal: use a scaled motion for smaller deals, a high-touch approach for larger ones, and partner with the Account Manager on enterprise onboardings.
- Guide customers through account set-up, payments, FX, cards, Spend and payouts based on their use case.
- Remove blockers quickly by coordinating with KYC, Support, Risk and Product, while keeping communication clear and proactive.
- Hand customers over to the Account Manager at day 90 with documented account status, adoption level and expansion signals.
- Reduce the time between first KYC approval and first live transaction.
- Bring each customer to the revenue target set at signature and spot at-risk onboardings early, escalating with context, impact and a proposed solution.
- Run a proactive, scaled motion for partner-referred customers, including onboarding follow-up, usage monitoring and risk detection.
- Keep partners informed about the progress of their referred customers and hand accounts that grow in value or complexity to the Account Manager.
- Contribute to onboarding playbooks, checklists and standard configurations by customer type.
- Keep Salesforce and onboarding tracking accurate and up to date, turning recurring friction into process improvements.
You'll work from our Paris office a minimum of three days per week.

- You simplify complexity rather than hiding behind it.
