About the Team

This role sits at the intersection of Sales, Operations, and Go-to-Market execution in Argentina and collaborates closely with cross functional teams, to ensure global and local alignment and operational excellence.

Sales Strategy & Execution

Own the end-to-end sales funnel for both merchant acquisition and retail development in Argentina, from sourcing, acquisition to activation.

Build and execute local go-to-market strategies that align with broader Market Ops and Argentina specific milestones

Leverage internal performance data and market insights to shape merchant targeting, incentive models, and campaign strategy.

Prioritize merchant verticals (e.g. convenience, retail, cafés) and test offer structures that drive both user verifications and long-term retention.

Team Leadership

Recruit, onboard, and manage a team of field-based, performance-driven sales contractors.

Define training, targets, and incentive structures to motivate results across acquisition, activation, and quality benchmarks.

Foster a culture of resilience, transparency, and accountability across the org.

Partner & Stakeholder Management

Own key merchant relationships, especially anchor accounts and national chains.

Collaborate closely with the Head of Market Ops South Cone to deliver on shared goals and ensure integrated execution across sales, Orb deployment, and World network operations.

Serve as the commercial liaison with cross-functional teams—including Product, Device, Logistics, and the broader Market Ops—to localize processes and execution.

Operational Excellence

Track and report on KPIs including Orb installations, active merchant count, reward redemptions, location performance, and cost per Orb deployed.

Ensure compliance with local legal and policy standards for merchant onboarding and user rewards.

Design and implement scalable systems for merchant support, asset deployment, and deal performance monitoring.

You’ve built and led high-performing sales teams, ideally including external contractors or field reps.

You’re data-driven and strategic. You regularly use performance data, feedback loops, and local insight to fine-tune execution, optimize funnels, and influence broader go-to-market strategy.

You’re scrappy. You thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and know how to get things done across dotted-line orgs.

You have strong cross-cultural competency and market fluency. You understand Argentine business norms, user behavior, and merchant dynamics, and you can navigate global-local collaboration with ease.

You are fluent in Spanish and English.

You are mission-aligned, with deep curiosity and belief in privacy-preserving identity and decentralized systems.

Nice to Have

Experience scaling a merchant network or channel partner ecosystem.

Experience in Web3, rewards/loyalty platforms, or identity systems.
