This person would be called upon when, say, a potential partner or client is still doubtful and having a difficult time making a decision. The specialist is paid to find just the right words, arguments, and tone, and has enough natural charm, to persuade them.
The word persuader has a number of meanings and tons of ambiguous connotations.

Do such people even exist? I am not aware of their existence outside of political lobbying and organized crime.

influencer noun
[​MARKETING] a person or group that has the ability to influence the behaviour or opinions of others:
The influencer is the individual whose effect on the purchase decision is in some way significant or authoritative.
See also:
Individuals who have the power to affect purchase decisions of others because of their (real or perceived) authority, knowledge, position, or relationship. In consumer spending, members of a peer group or reference group act as influencers. In business to business (organizational) buying, internal employees (engineers, managers, purchasers) or external consultants act as influencers.

Convincer! Is it not possible?

@mahmudkoya It is not so specific and not widely used today in this sense. It is true that convincer is a word and some marketing literature did use the term, though, e.g., Dorothy Leeds, Smart Questions: The Essential Strategy for Successful Managers, 2000, pp.63-64.

Interestingly, Dr. Larry Iverson seems to believe that the only person who can convince you is yourself (The Secret to Persuasiveness, 2011.) and uses influence instead of convince.

Influencer is someone who is already in position to influence others. I am not aware of a mechanism by which you can hire a freelance "influencer" to come in and persuade someone in your organization (other than a mob persuader).
