- Maintain professional relationships with acquiring banks and payment providers
- Handle sensitive escalations with professionalism and diplomacy
- Ensure recovery processes protect long-term client value

- A confident leader who can manage people and performance
- Detail-oriented but able to see the bigger financial picture
- Calm under pressure and solutions-driven
- High integrity with strong professional accountability
- Leadership exposure within a growing commercial environment
- Direct impact on revenue protection and financial performance
- A fast-paced, performance-driven culture
- Clear growth trajectory within Risk & Commercial functions
