Account Development Manager at Mercury in San Francisco, CA

Railroads didn’t change the world because tracks were laid once. The steam locomotive existed for decades before it transformed commerce. What changed everything was the expansion of connected networks: routes multiplied, standards emerged, and usage deepened over time. That expansion didn’t happen by accident; it was driven by people who identified where connections mattered most and helped existing infrastructure reach more users.

Mercury is at a similar moment.

More than 300,000 ambitious businesses already rely on Mercury to run their finances, but many are only beginning to tap into the full platform. As an early member of our Account Development team, your role is to do the same kind of work: helping customers move from initial adoption to deeper, more connected usage by expanding product adoption, preventing churn, and driving meaningful expansion revenue.

You’ll work directly with Mercury customers at the moments that matter most in their journey, providing a human touch when timing and context are everything. 

This is a quota-carrying role focused on expansion and adoption, while also serving as a critical feedback loop to inform how Mercury continues to evolve.
