CEO / Head of SEPA / SWIFT Payment Business

We are launching a payment service practically from scratch. We work with licensed clients from complex, but legal segments (iGaming, forex/CFD, digital services). The principle is simple: the bank sees the real client, the economic meaning of the operation, and the source of funds. We work transparently.

• Select a working model (through a bank or licensed provider/EMI/PSP) and agree on terms
• Personally conduct negotiations with banks, EMIs, PSPs, acquirers: segments, limits, tariffs, reserves, risk policy
• Launch SEPA payments (hereinafter — SEPA Instant, SWIFT, acquiring, payouts)
• Establish verification of complex merchants: documents, beneficiaries, source of funds
• Organize payment operations: reconciliation, settlements, refunds, liquidity, AML, anti-fraud
• Assemble a team, calculate and defend the budget, be responsible for the result

• A leader who has already gone through the process of launching a payment product and knows how to negotiate with banks. This could be a COO/MD of a payment provider or PSP, Head of Payments in iGaming/brokerage (ready to consider for promotion), CEO/COO of an existing EMI, or the founder of a small PSP. Real launch experience and bank approvals are more important than the "CEO" line on a resume

• Mandatory: Russian + fluent spoken English (you conduct negotiations with banks yourself)

• Fixed salary €8,000–11,000 / month (depending on experience and banking network), for exceptional candidates — discussed individually
• Bonus 15–35% for real results: launch of the model, signed agreements, first SEPA payments processed, stable payment operation
• Flexible geography: priority — Cyprus, Malta, Dubai; also Poland, Georgia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania. Country of residence is not critical
