About the ClientOur client is a well-established international payments and acquiring provider serving merchants across Europe and global markets. Operating as a licensed financial institution within the EU and the UK, the company offers end-to-end infrastructure that enables online businesses to accept, process, and manage card and alternative payments securely and at scale.
The platform covers payment acquiring, issuer processing, BIN sponsorship, white-label card programs, fraud prevention, and advanced data tools, allowing partners to build compliant and flexible payment ecosystems. With a strong technological foundation and years of market presence, the company supports fintechs, PSPs, and digital merchants that require reliability, regulatory alignment, and room to grow.
Role OverviewAs a Country Manager, you will be responsible for expanding the partner ecosystem in new regions, developing trusted relationships with key industry stakeholders, and driving the commercial adoption of the company’s payment technology infrastructure. This is not a general acquiring sales role — the ideal candidate must have a strong understanding of card infrastructure, banking IT systems, and processing center architecture, including how decisions are made within these institutions.
The role requires someone who has experience attracting banks and financial institutions and understands how to structure and close complex, long-cycle enterprise sales within the payments space.
