  • Deep understanding of go-to-market strategy development and cross-functional execution.
  • Excellent relationship-building, communication, and negotiation skills.
  • Highly self-motivated and results-driven, with a strong sense of ownership and urgency.
  • Experience navigating fast-paced, ambiguous environments with evolving priorities.
  • Experience in fintech, e-commerce, or financial services.
  • Prior experience working with or within high-impact partner ecosystems.
  • MBA or other advanced degree a plus.
