Full Job Description
Hello! We're Teya. Teya is a payment and software service provider, headquartered in London serving small, local businesses across Europe. Founded in 2019, we build easy to use, integrated tools that enable our members to accept payments and boost business performance. At Teya we believe small, local businesses are the lifeblood of our communities. We’re here because we don’t believe there’s a level playing field that gives small businesses with a fighting chance against the giants of the high street. We’re here because we see banks and legacy service providers making things harder for them. We don’t think the best technology or the best service should be reserved for those with the biggest headquarters. We’re here to fight for a future where small, local businesses can thrive, and to commit the same dedication they offer all of us. Become a part of our story. We’re looking for exceptional talent to join our mission. We offer a chance to create impact in a high-energy and connected culture, while benefiting from continuous learning opportunities, a supportive community which is proud to serve our mission, and comprehensive benefits. Your Mission As the Head of Payments at Teya, you will take the lead in shaping and executing our payment product strategy. You’ll drive the development of our acquiring, transaction processing, and payment infrastructure, ensuring we provide seamless, cost-efficient, and compliant payment solutions across multiple markets. Working closely with cross-functional teams, including Engineering, Operations, and Risk, you’ll ensure our payment capabilities scale and meet the needs of our merchants. On a regular day as Head of Payments, you will: - Payment Strategy Ownership: Lead and execute the payment product strategy, aligning with Teya’s broader business objectives and market expansion plans to ensure sustainable growth. - Team Leadership: Manage a team of Product Managers, setting clear priorities, defining roadmaps, and driving execution
