  • Bring deep working knowledge of payment rails such as international wires, domestic wires, RTP, ACH, and checks, including money movement operations, payment exceptions, operational risk, controls, and the systems that support reliable payment processing.
  • Have experience leading, coaching, or managing an operations team, with a track record of setting clear expectations, improving performance, and building strong team operating rhythms.

  • Communicate clearly and calmly, especially when work is complex, cross-functional, urgent, or sensitive.
  • Have a high degree of ownership. You notice where the system is fragile, unclear, or too manual, and you take responsibility for making it better.
