About this role

Nium, Global Leader in Payments   Nium, the global leader in real-time, cross-border payments, was founded on the mission to deliver the global payments infrastructure of tomorrow, today. With the onset of the global economy, its payments infrastructure is shaping how banks, fintechs, and businesses everywhere collect, convert, and disburse funds instantly across borders.   Its payout network supports 100 currencies and spans 220+ markets, 100 of which in real-time. Funds can be disbursed to accounts, wallets, and cards and collected locally in 35 markets. Nium's growing card issuance business is already available in 34 countries. Nium holds regulatory licenses and authorizations in more than 40 countries, enabling seamless onboarding, rapid integration, and compliance – independent of geography. The company is co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore.  The Opportunity In March 2026, Nium delivered the largest month in our 11-year history — record revenue, record volumes, and EBITDA profitability. We move nearly $60B in payments annually, almost entirely for enterprises. We are not a company approaching its peak. We are a company accelerating toward it. The Chief Payments Officer is the person who owns the infrastructure that makes all of it possible. You will define and execute the global network strategy across 190+ countries, build and own the banking relationships that underpin our business, and lead a team of 25 specialists across four continents. You will also own Nium's roadmap for next-generation infrastructure — stablecoin rails, programmable money, real-time cross-border settlement — as we build the payments network of the next decade. This role demands someone who thinks in systems, moves with urgency, and leads with conviction. If you want to leave a mark on how money moves around the world, this is where you do it.
