  • Set the vision and strategy for card portfolio growth across PaymentsEdge clients, with a focus on activation, usage, and retention
  • Define KPIs, benchmarks, and success metrics that reflect a healthy credit and debit card portfolio
  • Drive end-to-end lifecycle strategies - from acquisition and activation through engagement, usage, and retention
  • Translate portfolio data and behavioral analytics into scalable product and commercial offerings
  • Oversee the execution of growth and retention programs, including marketing and advisory campaigns
  • Benchmark performance against top issuers and guide the team in translating insights into client strategies
  • Partner directly with clients as a senior advisor on portfolio optimization and growth opportunities
  • Collaborate across product, sales, and client teams to commercialize offerings and drive revenue
  • Ensure strong analytics, reporting, and insight generation across the team, with clear ties to client outcomes
  • Build and scale team capabilities, processes, and operating rigor

What you will need:

  • Experience leading teams in product, portfolio management, or commercial strategy environments
  • Strong background in card portfolio management (credit and/or debit), with a clear understanding of activation, spend, retention, and lifecycle metrics
  • Commercial product or GTM experience - ability to translate insights into scalable, revenue-generating offerings
  • Proven ability to drive portfolio performance through data, analytics, and targeted programs
  • Experience working with or benchmarking against leading card issuers
  • Strong stakeholder leadership skills, with the ability to influence internally and externally
  • Ability to operate across product, analytics, and client-facing environments

Added bonus if you have:

  • Experience leading campaign execution teams (e.g., marketing, lifecycle, or portfolio programs)
  • Exposure to advisory-led or performance-based revenue models
  • Background in customer segmentation, behavioral analytics, or portfolio optimization tools
