Global Payments Flow Strategist

Role summary

The Fund Flow Strategist plays a critical role in enabling Payoneer’s global licensing strategy, regulatory change initiatives, and product expansion by ensuring that end‑to‑end funds movements are clearly documented, accurate, and regulator‑ready. The role provides a single, authoritative view of how funds move across licensed entities, products, banking partners, and corridors, supporting confident engagement with regulators, auditors, banking partners, and senior leadership. 

This position owns the documentation and ongoing maintenance of Payoneer’s global funds flow framework, including safeguarding models, legal ownership of funds, and intercompany funding and settlement structures. The role operates in close partnership with Product, Treasury, Legal, Compliance, and Operations to ensure that new products, rails, and structural changes are fully understood, documented, and aligned with regulatory expectations.

The Fund Flow Strategist role is not a one‑time mapping exercise. Payoneer supports over 100 currencies across approximately 190 payout markets, operates through more than 10 licensed entities, serves customers in 200 countries, and relies on a continuously evolving banking, partner, and regulatory infrastructure. Ongoing product launches and the expansion of stablecoin‑based settlement and funding models further increase the importance of having a central owner responsible for keeping funds flows current, consistent, and defensible as new rails, partners, and regulatory requirements emerge.
