Head of Revenue Planning

We believe in the everyday hero — those who have the courage to follow their passion and the determination to realise their dreams.

Small business owners are at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we create powerful, easy-to-use financial solutions to help them run their businesses. With a founder’s mentality and a team-first attitude, our diverse teams across Europe, South America and the United States work together to ensure that small business owners can be successful doing what they love.

Our Revenue Operations team sits at the heart of SumUp’s commercial engine — turning data, insights, and strategy into measurable business impact. From forecasting revenue to shaping go-to-market investments, this team ensures that every commercial decision is grounded in clarity and performance.

As the new Head of Revenue Planning, you’ll bridge Finance, Product, Marketing, and Sales, building a unified view of our global revenue streams. You’ll play a critical role in helping SumUp reach its ambitious growth targets by ensuring revenue plans are predictable, sustainable, and aligned across all lines of business. You’ll lead a talented team of four Revenue Planning Managers/Associates, each focused on different acquisition channels — sales, marketing, and retail planning.

Your work will directly influence how we allocate capital, set commercial targets, and optimise pricing and incentive structures — driving smarter, faster decisions across the organisation. You’ll be the analytical backbone of our commercial leadership, ensuring our teams act with confidence and precision.
