• Drive cross-functional collaboration across Product, Engineering, and Customer Success to align delivery with strategic priorities.
• Anticipate risks and manage escalations with a sense of urgency and solution-driven mindset.
• Ensure adherence to agreed scope, timeline, and budget, while maintaining flexibility to adapt to changing priorities.
• Promote operational excellence and continuous improvement within project frameworks and client interactions.
• Represent the company as a trusted advisor, strengthening partnerships through clarity, accountability, and business insight.

• Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Engineering, Finance, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in project management, preferably within Payments, FinTech, or Financial Operations.

• Experience linking project outcomes to business performance metrics (e.g., cost efficiency, automation gains, NPS, ROI).
• Strong understanding of payment flows, reconciliation systems, and financial reporting.
• Advanced command of project management methodologies.
• Demonstrated ability to lead under pressure, manage ambiguity, and drive alignment with demanding executive sponsors.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and storytelling skills, both technical and business-oriented.
• High sense of ownership and urgency, with the ability to make decisions and move initiatives forward proactively.
