London, England, United Kingdom
I'm a commercial leader with 12+ years in payments and fintech, with a track record of building revenue, partnerships, and commercial teams from the ground up — and delivering exits. I've worked across the full spectrum: from scaling partnerships at Klarna during its UK growth phase, to leading commercial strategy through two successful acquisitions (Roqqett by Equals Group PLC, SmartDebit by The Access Group). I know how to build in ambiguous, fast-moving environments and how to operate with the rigour that established businesses require. My sweet spot is partnerships and commercial growth — finding the right channels, building the right relationships, and turning them into predictable revenue. Currently exploring VP and Head of Partnerships opportunities in payments, embedded finance, and fintech.
