- Regional PR & Communications: Lead our regional agency to translate marketing milestones and global research into high-impact media coverage and thought leadership that amplifies the "payment performance” narrative across MENA.

- Campaign Support: Co-create and execute region-specific marketing campaigns, placing a strong emphasis on diversified Account-Based Marketing execution (1:1, 1:few, 1:many) to effectively engage and nurture key accounts.

- Analytical Rigor: Use our tech stack (Looker, Salesforce, 6sense) to track performance against our "high bar" metrics, ensuring all activities are optimized for conversion and impact.

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
