We are seeking a Senior Business Development Specialist to join our Payment Systems Team. In this role, you will serve as a pivotal leader within our Payment Systems Team and act as the strategic right-hand to the Head of Payment Partnerships, taking end-to-end ownership of our payment ecosystem.

Job Responsibilities:

Strategic Partnership & Leadership

• Right-Hand to Head of Partnerships: Collaborate directly with leadership to define payment expansion strategies, anticipate future infrastructure needs, and meet ambitious regional targets.
• Mentorship & Team Support: Support, train, and onboard new team members; serve as a subject matter expert and mentor on complex payment workflows and high-risk regulatory nuances.
• Escalation & Case Management: Act as the primary point of contact and authority for resolving difficult operational, technical, or partner-related issues.

Banking & Alternative Payment Coverage

• Banking Solutions: Source, negotiate, and maintain relationships for corporate accounts, client operational accounts, and high-volume banking rails.
• Alternative Payment Systems & Crypto: Expand and manage relationships with global PSPs, local payment methods, card acquirers, and cryptocurrency payment gateways.

• Market Intelligence & Analytics: Continuously monitor global market trends, customer payment preferences, and transactional analytics to boost conversion rates and operational efficiency.

Quality and Compliance

• Control and ensure proper quality of payment solutions onboarded (operational effectiveness will be measured by high transaction approval rate, sufficiency of volume capacity, and operational speed).
• Control and ensure that payment solutions onboarded meet compliance criteria.

Requirements
