Structure and commercialise network partnership opportunities, balancing commercial objectives with regulatory and operational requirements.
Translate complex payment infrastructure, scheme and sponsor bank requirements into clear product recommendations.
Collaborate with Product, Engineering and Architecture to influence the development and prioritisation of sponsor-bank-enabled platform capabilities.
Analyse payment flows, clearing, settlement, liquidity and operational requirements to identify opportunities for improvement.
Support market assessments, business cases and commercial propositions for new-market opportunities.
Establish meaningful KPIs to measure partnership success, market readiness and product adoption.
Work collaboratively across Commercial, Legal, Compliance, Risk, Operations and Customer Success to support successful delivery.
