About the Role
The payment industry is going through major transformations driven by new customer demands, open banking, increased competition, new technology and modernization of Payment Market Infrastructures.
Payments are a strategic priority for SWIFT and the evolving landscape in correspondent banking, instant, high and low value payments present new opportunities to both reinforce the position of our platform and roll-out our ambitious strategy to enable instant and frictionless cross-border transactions.
The move towards ISO20022, the enhancement of our platform toward transaction management services and the evolution of our growing SWIFTgpi portfolio are areas of particular attention for us.
