Driving growth in B2B payments with new customers is amongst our highest priorities and greatest opportunities. Deepening our participation in carded commercial POS flows and B2B accounts payables is essential to realizing our ambitions in capturing new payments flows. While the opportunity is significant, these are new areas for us that will require new product offerings and go-to-market strategies, informed by the input and active participation of our corporate customers.

Mastercard is creating a new global business development team to drive our expansion into business-to-business payments in the Multinational corporate segment, solving for their payment needs across the procurement cycle with current and future platforms and products across a wide region of countries in LAC. The focus of this team is building and expanding the two-sided network of Buyers & Suppliers to deliver accelerated GDV & Revenue growth in our Large & Multinational Corporate segments.

The Vice President, Multinational Corporate Segment position is responsible to lead a team of regional directors to craft a segment strategy and operating model in partnership with regional stakeholders while delivering GDV & Net Revenue KPIs.

Working in direct collaboration with our Account Management colleagues that manage/own customer relationships, the B2B Regional & Global product teams, Data & Services and other cross functional teams, the successful candidate will:

• Grow, maintain, convert, and track a healthy pipeline of Multinational/B2B opportunities with focus on shared service centers of MN companies.
• Where it is optimal, undertake Direct -to-Corporate (D2C) activities, working directly with Large Market/Multinational corporates and their shared service centers that have significant procurement activity. Assist them in identifying pain points in their procurement processes, articulate solutions that leverage Mastercard platforms & products and have them make the brand decision in favour of Mastercard. Once that is done, then in discussion with Regional Business Development Heads, take these prospective LM/MN corporate customers to Issuers/FI partners in a completely agnostic manner and help them make decisions around which partners to go with.
