  • Build strong relationships with senior leaders across Payments, WISE, Operations, Technology, and cross‑enterprise partners
  • Influence outcomes in matrixed environments
  • secure resources, align priorities, and resolve conflicts across stakeholder groups
  • Apply industry knowledge of global payments, SWIFT standards, and evolving regulatory and technology landscapes to guide prioritization and decision‑making

  • Identify risks associated with change execution
  • build and implement mitigation plans
  • Recommend improvements to execution processes, governance models, and cross‑functional routines to strengthen alignment and delivery quality

Requirements:

  • 6+ years in Business Execution, Implementation, Strategic Planning, or related experience (including through work experience, military, or education)
  • 3+ years of management or leadership experience

Nice to have:

  • Deep industry experience in payments, including SWIFT, global payments processing, money movement products, or large‑scale payments transformation
  • Experience from a large financial institution or at a top-tier consulting firm or in a consulting-style leadership role managing large-scale transformation, complex programs, or high-impact product portfolios
  • Proven ability to lead in high-ambiguity environments, roll up sleeves, problem‑solve, and drive execution in a dynamic and evolving landscape
  • Demonstrated success managing stakeholder relationships across large, matrixed, geographically dispersed organizations
  • Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills
  • ability to convert insights into clear strategies and actionable plans
  • Experience supporting enterprise or cross-organizational strategic initiatives, change management, or transformation within a large financial institution
