## Description

### About the role

### Responsibilities

-   Own the full country P&L.
-   Define and drive commercial and product strategy, working directly with Credit and Marketing.
-   Build and manage relationships with regulators and government bodies in Barbados.
-   Lead employer relations and develop payroll-deduction channel partnerships.

-   Negotiate and establish banking relationships and credit facilities for the country operation.
-   Track and report on country performance, adjusting strategy as market conditions evolve.

## Requirements

-   10+ years of progressive senior leadership experience in financial services, fintech, lending, or retail.

-   Demonstrated experience building or scaling an operation from the ground up (retail, branch network, or similar).
-   Proven ability to negotiate and establish banking relationships or credit facilities.
-   Established relationships with regulators and government bodies, or clear evidence of having built them from scratch in another market.
-   Bachelor's degree required.

### Nice to have

-   Track record of growing an active customer base through localized marketing and operational improvement.
-   Prior experience specifically in the Caribbean or a comparable emerging market.

### Who you are
