Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've closed $5M+ in enterprise or partnership deals and can own the full sales cycle solo
  • You speak 'embedded fintech' fluently—understand how insurance integrates into partner platforms and drives end-user value
  • You thrive building relationships with C-suite stakeholders (CFOs, COOs, product execs) at scale
  • You're analytical: you track metrics obsessively, iterate sales playbooks, and let data guide strategy
Won't Work If
  • You need remote flexibility or a distributed team—this is on-site, and location matters for client face time
  • You expect a defined sales playbook handed to you—Bolt is scaling partnerships dynamically, you're building the playbook
  • You're uncomfortable with international complexity (35+ markets, multiple currencies, regulatory nuance)
