Satispay Head of Banking Operations at Satispay responsible for managing payment rails, reconciliation, and scaling operations. Leads the Banking Operations team and manages partners and compliance.
Responsibilities
As our Head of Banking Operations, you’ll play a key role in making sure every euro of our customers’ money moves, settles, and reconciles safely, at scale.
Payment rails and cards - Own SEPA, TARGET, domestic schemes, securities and fund rails, and the money side of cards. Cover foreign exchange where products need it, and keep us compliant with scheme rules.
Reconciliation - Reconcile all client money daily. Every break gets an owner, a date, and a root cause, and you always know how much is unreconciled, how old it is, and what it could cost.
Scale and efficiency - Handle much higher volumes through process and automation, not headcount. That means fewer failed or delayed payments, fewer manual steps, lower cost per transaction, and lower operational losses.
New products - Get every product ready to launch, with the right accounts, rails and controls from day one.
Partners and expertise - Manage banks, processors and other partners, with a tested backup behind each critical one. Be the company’s payments expert and give Customer Operations accurate explanations to use as they are.
Team - Hire, structure, and develop the Banking Operations team.
European payment infrastructure expertise – Deep expertise across the landscape: SEPA rulebooks and R-transactions, card schemes and processing, SWIFT and TARGET. You have personally delivered at least one major scheme migration.
Securities & fund operations – Hands-on exposure to securities, custody, or fund operations.
Operations leadership – Experience running (not just supervising) operations in a licensed institution (bank, electronic money/payment institution, or payment processor).
Financial rigor – Proven experience owning a reconciliation estate and driving breaks and operational losses down. A two-cent difference bothers you as much as a two-thousand-euro one — and you know which to fix first.
Team builder – Demonstrated success in hiring, structuring, and leveling an operations team.
