• Ability to operate autonomously within the assigned scope and appropriately escape critical topics.
• Professional proficiency in English is mandatory, both written and spoken, with the ability to participate in meetings and effectively communicate with stakeholders.

Desirable Qualifications

• Experience in Payments, Fintech, E-commerce, or Digital Platforms.
• Experience working on multi-market or global initiatives.
