Overview
Our Purpose
Services within Mastercard is responsible for acquiring, engaging, and retaining customers by managing fraud and risk, enhancing cybersecurity, and improving the digital payments experience. We provide value-added services and leverage expertise, data-driven insights, and execution. Our Advisors & Consulting Services team combines traditional management consulting with Mastercard’s rich data assets, proprietary platforms, and technologies to provide clients with powerful strategic insights and recommendations. Our teams work with a diverse global customer base across industries, from banking and payments to retail and restaurants.
The Data & Services team is a key differentiator for Mastercard, providing the cutting-edge services that help our customers grow. Focused on thinking big and scaling fast around the globe, this agile team is responsible for end-to-end solutions for a diverse global customer base. We combine traditional management consulting with our rich data assets and in-house technology to provide our clients with powerful strategic insights and recommendations. Centered on data-driven technologies and innovation, these services include consulting, loyalty and marketing programs, test-and-learn business experimentation, and data-driven information and risk management services. While specializing in the payments industry, Mastercard Data & Services also works closely with major retailers, airlines, and other enterprises, leveraging data and insights garnered from within and beyond its network.
Within Advisors & Client Services, our Acquiring & Acceptance practice partners closely with acquirers, banks, processors, payment facilitators, ISVs, orchestration platforms, fintechs, and merchants to design and scale the next generation of payment acceptance across Latin America and the Caribbean. We are looking for passionate and talented acquiring professionals, who share our vision for data-driven consulting, to join us and take a leading role in shaping the growth of our team. Role
As a Senior Managing Consultant and Acquiring subject matter expert, you will be a trusted client business advisor who scopes, leads, and advises on acquiring-focused client engagements across a range of financial institutions, acquirers, payment facilitators, ISVs, fintechs, and merchants. As the subject matter expert, you will partner with the Business Development and Product teams to develop and pitch engagements that leverage Mastercard data and consulting knowledge in acquiring, and you will lead engagement teams to best-in-class insights and project deliverables that drive commercial success for our clients.
This role is deliberately weighted toward the commercial side of acquiring. You will be the go-to authority on how acquirers, banks, and payment players grow and monetize their merchant business – spanning go-to-market and distribution strategy, pricing and interchange optimization, merchant acquisition, onboarding and activation, usage and engagement, and retention and loyalty across the merchant lifecycle. You will help clients design value propositions, segment and target merchants (with particular focus on MSMEs and financial inclusion), improve portfolio profitability, and build the commercial playbooks that turn acceptance into sustained revenue. Deep technical processing and chargeback/disputes expertise is available elsewhere on the team; here, your differentiator is commercial acumen and market-facing strategy. Roles and Responsibilities
