We're supporting one of the world's leading global payment networks with a strategic growth initiative focused on expanding its ISV and software-partner ecosystem across Germany.
This forms part of a broader investment in the German market, with several new hires joining the team to help accelerate growth and payment acceptance.
As payments become increasingly embedded within the software platforms merchants use every day, ISVs are becoming an important route into new merchant communities.
The Opportunity:
You’ll help map, build and activate the German ISV ecosystem — identifying the software platforms, technology providers and industry communities offering the greatest potential.
Working across ISVs, acquirers, PSPs and ecosystem partners, you'll build relationships and turn opportunities into practical partnerships and joint go-to-market initiatives.
The goal: create scalable new routes that help acquiring partners reach more merchants and grow digital payment acceptance across Germany.
What You'll be Doing:
- Map and prioritise the German ISV, SaaS, platform and POS ecosystem
- Identify verticals and software communities offering the greatest acceptance opportunity
- Build relationships across ISVs, acquirers, PSPs and industry partners
- Develop joint propositions, partnerships and go-to-market programmes
- Build an active ISV community through workshops, events and knowledge sharing
- Identify emerging embedded-payments and acceptance opportunities
- Turn ecosystem relationships into measurable commercial outcomes
Who We're Looking For:
You’ll bring 8+ years' experience across payments, acquiring, FinTech, SaaS, platforms, partnerships or business development.
More important than your job title is your German payments network.
Experience across ISVs | Acquirers | PSPs | POS | SaaS | Embedded Payments | Merchant Acceptance | PayFacs would be particularly relevant.
You’ll understand how the German acquiring ecosystem works and ideally already know some of the software platforms and partners shaping its future.
We're looking for someone pragmatic and hands-on who can move from:
Map the opportunity → Open the relationship → Bring partners together → Create commercial outcomes.
Fluent business-level German and English required.
Why it's Interesting:
This is a chance to help shape an important German growth initiative for one of the biggest names in global payments, alongside several other new hires joining the market.
And at 2–3 days per week, it could be particularly attractive to an experienced payments leader, consultant or fractional executive looking to apply their network and expertise to a defined strategic mission.
