• Establish the commercial framework for optimisation, working with Finance, Sales, and Marketing to design value-based pricing models.

• Lead the evolution of optimisation from a capability into a scalable product line, influencing its positioning, packaging, and monetisation.

• Provide thought leadership across the organisation on the role of AI and data-driven optimisation in payments.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Delivery

• Partner with Engineering and Data Science to develop AI/ML-powered optimisation features that improve authorisation, reduce cost, and drive measurable performance gains.

• Work closely with Sales, Relationship Management, and Marketing teams to articulate product value and support commercial success across the portfolio.
