Brex

Scaling fast

The read

Brex shed notable leadership to Plaid, Rippling, Airwallex, and Stripe over 90 days—including a Director of Brand Marketing, a Senior Manager of Scaled AE + AM, and roles in GTM-Commercial and underwriting—while net adding 10 roles overall (30 joined, 20 left). The company brought in VP-level hires for SMB Partnerships and Implementations, and customer service emerged as the fastest-growing function, suggesting a shift toward service-layer capacity as sales and account-management talent migrates to competitors. Eleven promotions, concentrated in sales development and support, point to internal backfill, but Airwallex alone absorbed three departures, signaling persistent talent flow to Asia-Pacific fintech challengers.
