Chief Payments Officer

The Opportunity

In March 2026, Nium delivered the largest month in our 11-year history — record revenue, record volumes, and EBITDA profitability. We move nearly $60B in payments annually, almost entirely for enterprises. We are not a company approaching its peak. We are a company accelerating toward it. The Chief Payments Officer is the person who owns the infrastructure that makes all of it possible.

You will define and execute the global network strategy across 190+ countries, build and own the banking relationships that underpin our business, and lead a team of 25 specialists across four continents. You will also own Nium's roadmap for next-generation infrastructure — stablecoin rails, programmable money, real-time cross-border settlement — as we build the payments network of the next decade.

This role demands someone who thinks in systems, moves with urgency, and leads with conviction. If you want to leave a mark on how money moves around the world, this is where you do it.

We Value Performance: Through competitive salaries, performance bonuses, sales commissions, equity for specific roles and recognition programs, we ensure that all our employees are well rewarded and incentivized for their hard work. 

We Care: The wellness of Nium’ers is our #1 priority. We offer medical coverage along with 24/7 employee assistance program, generous vacation programs including our year-end shut down. We also provide a flexible hybrid working environment (3 days per week in the office). 

We Upskill Ourselves: We are curious, and always want to learn more with a focus on upskilling ourselves. We provide role-specific training, internal workshops, and a learning stipend. 

We Constantly Innovate: Since our inception, Nium has received constant recognition and awards for how we approach both our business and talent opportunities. Check out CNBC World’s Top Fintech Companies 2024.  

We Celebrate Together: We recognize that work is also about creating great relationships with each other. We celebrate together with company-wide social events, team bonding activities, happy hours, team offsites, and much more!  

We Thrive With Diversity: Nium is truly a global company, with more than 33 nationalities, based in 18+ countries and more than 10 office locations. As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to providing a safe and welcoming environment for everyone.
