Country Manager UK & Ireland - (all genders)

GMI has established a solid presence in the UK & Ireland. Your mission is to elevate that foothold to true category leadership by forging partnerships with the region’s most influential platforms and enterprises—organizations capable of putting GMI in front of thousands of CFOs with a single partnership.

While traditional referral or reseller programs may still support your approach, the core of this role is to create deep Strategic Alliances that integrate GMI directly into the financial and operational backbone of the market.

You will report directly to the Head of Partnerships, acting as a strategic counterpart while taking a hands-on role during the initial phase. As you achieve key growth milestones, you’ll be responsible for building and leading the regional Go-to-Market team.

Tasks

• Take full ownership of the P&L for the UK & Ireland, consistently exceeding growth targets
• Build and secure strategic alliances with Tier-1 banks, ERP providers, and payroll platforms
• Translate partnerships into measurable revenue through co-marketing, enablement, and product integrations
• Localise pricing strategies, messaging, and compliance to fit market needs
• Recruit, develop, and lead the regional Go-to-Market team once key traction milestones are reached

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in senior commercial or strategic partnerships roles (e.g. Country Manager, GM, Head of Strategic Partnerships) in FinTech, B2B SaaS, or Consulting
• Proven ability to convert flagship partnerships into €10M+ in annual recurring revenue and manage full budgets
• Strong credibility with C-level stakeholders at banks, software providers, and large enterprises
• Extensive network within the regional finance and accounting ecosystem
• Strategic thinker with a builder mentality—confident in closing enterprise deals today while designing scalable processes for tomorrow
• Native-level English proficiency
