## About

Jay Iannini is an Enterprise Business Development Director at TreviPay, where he develops and manages enterprise opportunities across manufacturing, retail, transportation, travel, and other strategic verticals. Jay leads the full sales cycle—from prospecting, discovery, solution alignment, and financial modeling through contract negotiation, implementation, and account launch—and uses Microsoft Copilot, SharePoint, Salesforce, PowerPoint, market intelligence, SEC filings, and AI-driven research to strengthen account planning and executive engagement. He specializes in enterprise B2B payments and fintech sales, particularly complex, multi-stakeholder deals involving credit, lending, co-brand card, sales-finance, and merchant-acquiring programs. His strengths include consultative selling, executive relationship development, stakeholder alignment across product, marketing, and client teams, and owning deals through close rather than handing them off. Across more than a decade of enterprise sales initiatives in fintech, financial services, and B2B technology, Jay has delivered $1.5 million in total profitability at TreviPay, more than $2 billion in loan growth at Barclays, $350 million in projected outstanding loan volume at Banco Popular, and a $3 billion merchant portfolio acquisition at The Kessler Group.
