The Senior Director will operate with significant autonomy, shaping mid- to long-term strategies, influencing executive leadership, and ensuring organizational impact across regions.

This role, reporting into the Global VGS Head (and indirectly to the Regional VGS Lead in North America), will be a critical link between the Global CoE and the regional Sales teams, accelerating global learnings and bringing market feedback to global teams.

  • Define market archetypes and use-case-based solution propositions, incorporating go-to-market ready ecosystem partners and enablers.
  • Build strategic pricing frameworks and deal structures aligned to segment economics and value delivered.
  • Evaluate and implement changes to Visa operating system rules and policies in partnership with VGS CoE to ensure Visa is competitive in all prioritized payment channels.
  • Ensure engagement and alignment with regional and market Government Affairs, including compliance with PPLC policy.

Solution & Innovation:

  • Lead and support the Regional Solution Lead to adapt Visa products for unique government use cases and regional requirements.
  • Ensure solution design aligns with regulatory, functional, and commercial needs of government clients.
  • Partner with Global Solutions teams and regional product teams to influence roadmap priorities based on regional insights and client feedback.
  • Drive innovation by linking Visa’s core capabilities with emerging GovTech trends relevant to the region.
  • Partnerships & Ecosystem Development
  • Manage the Regional Partnerships function to identify and cultivate strategic partnerships with GovTech providers, system integrators, and other ecosystem players.
  • Execute on global partnerships operating within the region, ensuring alignment with global commercial frameworks while tailoring for local market needs.
  • Create partnership models that accelerate adoption and enable joint solutions for government clients.
  • Build and maintain relationships with executive leadership, both internally and externally, to expand Visa’s influence and drive ecosystem development at scale.

Revenue Realization, Launch & Continuous Improvement:

  • Own revenue realization for signed deals by tracking performance and driving initiatives to remove blockers across contracting, onboarding, and delivery.
  • Build relationships with Regional stakeholders important to the execution of VGS plans, including Visa Direct, Visa Commercial Payment Solutions, Client Success, Visa Consulting & Analytics to ensure alignment and appropriate resourcing.
  • Work with Global Sales Enablement and Marketing to deliver regional go-to-market initiatives—including localized sales plays, events, training programs, and onboarding—ensuring alignment across pre- and post-sales phases to drive adoption, accelerate ramp-up, and support revenue growth.
  • Implement review cycles (90/180 days) to assess deal performance, customer feedback, and competitive shifts.
  • Feed insights into GTM and pricing updates to improve product-market fit.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • 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.
