About this role

👋 About Us

sunday is building the fastest, simplest way to pay in restaurants. With a quick scan of a QR code, diners can pay, tip, and leave in about 10 seconds. We believe great products should feel obvious, not complicated, and we focus relentlessly on keeping things simple while earning trust from restaurants and guests at every interaction. Today, sunday powers payments in thousands of restaurants across the US, UK, and France, helping operators turn tables faster, increase tips, and unlock valuable insights. We push ourselves to go beyond what’s expected, building with ownership, moving fast, and scaling with ambition as we tackle our biggest growth opportunity in the US.


About the Role

As the founding Head of Enterprise Operations for the UK market, your ultimate goal will be to make sunday's Enterprise portfolio successful, scalable and commercially valuable.

You'll own the operational journey of Enterprise clients from pilot through rollout and ongoing optimisation. You'll create the operating model, governance and cross-functional discipline needed to manage complex Enterprise groups with clarity and consistency - while making sure our clients see the value of sunday at every stage of the relationship.

You'll lead up to six direct reports across Enterprise Account Managers and Associates, and report to Josh Cosnett, Head of UK. You'll work closely with Product, Tech, Sales and Onboarding, as well as senior stakeholders on the client side. This is a fast-paced, data- and detail-oriented team with a strong written culture and an 80:20 approach: focus on what matters most, move quickly, and keep raising the bar.

This role is a rare opportunity to shape how sunday operates with its most strategic customers. You'll bring together operational leadership, client execution, commercial thinking and cross-functional coordination to create more value for Enterprise merchants, and build the stickiness that turns successful deployments into lasting partnerships.
Join early, grow fast, and shape the journey!
