VP Strategic Partner Sales – TransferMate
TransferMate – a subsidiary of CluneTech – was established in 2010 when we began working with regulators around the world to secure licences to operate as a global payments provider. With a global payments network covering 200+ countries and territories, TransferMate have established partnerships with some of the largest banks, fintechs and software providers globally. The combination of our regulated network, award-winning technology and strategic partnerships culminated in 2022 when the business achieved Unicorn status.
Our team is dedicated to delivering the best possible experience for our partners and their customers. We know that a happy team is one that performs at its highest potential and our #OneTeam ethos encourages mutual support, respect, recognition, and rewards. In Ireland, we have been recognised as a Great Place to Work for 9 consecutive years. With 35 offices worldwide, we operate across 100+ countries on a daily basis.
About the Role
As VP Strategic Partner Sales, you will support the development, performance, and growth of TransferMate’s most strategic partner relationships across the region.
Operating as a senior commercial leader, you will drive partner-led revenue, deepen product adoption, and position TransferMate as a critical payments partner within key client ecosystems.
This is a VP-level individual contributor role, requiring strong executive engagement, commercial ownership, and the ability to lead cross-functional execution through influence.
The role reports to the Commercial Director, EMEA.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
