Group Sales Manager Visa Sponsorship Jobs in Virginia

Overview

Company Overview

Intuit is the global financial technology platform that powers prosperity for the people and communities we serve. With approximately 100 million customers worldwide using products such as TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, and Mailchimp, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to prosper. We never stop working to find new, innovative ways to make that possible.

Getting paid faster is one of small business owners’ most critical problems. Cash flow challenges are cited as a cause for 82% of small business failures, and this remains an unsolved problem despite rapid innovation in fintech. QB Payments is core to solving it: we currently process $175B of the $2T in invoices sent across the QuickBooks platform, having grown at a 40% CAGR since our 2017 platform investment.

Job Overview

FY27 is a pivotal year for QB Payments. We’re pursuing several major initiatives to accelerate Total Payment Volume and deepen our role in how small businesses get paid. At the same time, the broader payments landscape is shifting quickly — card networks, acquirers, fintechs, frontier LLM’s are racing to define agentic commerce, stablecoin rails, and embedded finance, all of which intersect directly with QuickBooks’ own ambitions.

We are looking for a Head of Payments Partnerships to lead this agenda. This position requires strong strategic problem-solving and communication skills, the ability to influence and develop productive partnerships at all levels of the organization, and a strong understanding of Intuit’s mission and values. This is a role with broad exposure to senior leaders across GBSG and the Services Segment.

You will lead a team, reporting to the Director of Business Development, and work closely with our Payments leadership, Product, Commercial, Engineering, Risk, and Ops teams to address our customers’ AR problems and accelerate growth.

The Opportunity

QB Payments sits at the center of Intuit’s Center of Money strategy, and partnerships are a primary lever for both defending and extending our position. You will own the full partner portfolio across several active and emerging fronts:

• Payment ecosystem partners — card networks, acquirers, wallets, and alternative payment methods that expand acceptance, reduce settlement costs, and improve approval rates
• Embedded finance and BNPL — building on the Affirm partnership model to expand financing options at checkout and improve conversion for higher-ticket transactions
• AI and agentic commerce — positioning QB Payments and QBO as the system of record inside emerging agent-mediated transaction flows (e.g., MPP/ACP-style protocols), as card networks, Stripe, and others race to define this space
• Ecosystem integration partners — working with AP and adjacent software providers to remove seams across the customer's broader tech stack, ensuring a seamless payments experience regardless of which tools a QB business uses to run its operations

• Proactively identify whitespace opportunities at the intersection of Intuit’s SMB and Mid-Market customer base, data assets, financial products, and partner distribution capabilities
• Act as a subject matter expert on payment trends, rules, and regulations, sharing insights with internal stakeholders and tracking fast-moving developments across agentic commerce, stablecoin infrastructure, and embedded finance

Drive Cross-Functional Execution

• Partner closely with Product to translate partnership requirements into roadmap inputs, supporting the development and rollout of new payment products and capabilities
• Collaborate with Risk and Finance to structure deals that are commercially sound, risk-policy aligned, and poised for accelerated growth
• Work with Marketing to develop co-marketing and co-distribution playbooks, and elevate QB Payments’ influence in the ecosystem through joint product development and strategic initiatives

• Support Quarterly Business Reviews with key merchants by providing insights on payment partnerships and developments

Operate as a Senior Leader

Communication
