Role and Purpose
You convert our customers’ goals into reality. You kickstart a merchant’s fee recovery plan. Merchants must understand their processing rates to do something about them. Unfortunately, this is a difficult task for merchants for two key reasons. First, there are millions of different cards and interchange/assessment fees unique to each card. Second, this analysis is typically not a core function or expertise within a merchant. You own the analysis and the implementation of their processing rates so the merchant can save fees – and have visibility into what they’ll save.

Who you are
You strive to uncover complex problems and find great personal and professional fulfillment in solving them. You can put yourself into the mindset of a customer to uncover problems before an actual customer does. In addition, you are:
· Team-oriented: You believe shared success and individual advancement go hand-in-hand. We share your values. You thrive in an inclusive, collaborative environment and hold yourself and your teammates accountable You step up and step in when your team needs you.
· Impact-driven: You find deep meaning and satisfaction in making an impact. You are self-aware about what motivates you and what instills passion. You take pride in being trusted to deliver results for your team. You embrace a growth-mindset. You reframe setbacks as gifted opportunities to improve. In short, you’re a polite, ethical hustler.
· Structured decision maker: you believe progress is rooted in a focused effort. To know how to focus, you work hard to understand the root cause and listen to different points of view. You prefer investigating to being right. You first identify the core drivers of a problem and work backwards to simplify the solution. You constantly think about 2nd and 3rd order effects of decisions. In general, you are optimistically paranoid about what you don’t know.
InterPayments’ Values:
· Customers and mission first. The customer is at the heart of everything we do and we have an enormous obligation to help them. We align our company, team, and individual goals with customer outcomes and our mission. When making decisions and setting priorities, we always keep our customer’s perspective and our mission in mind.
· Always build trust. We focus on the long-term. We treat everyone - existing and prospective teammates, customers, partners, vendors, investors - as if we’ll know and work with them forever. We assume good intent and empathize. We’re always ethical, respectful, and honest. We are responsive, reliable, and trustworthy. We are loyal and committed to one another, our customers, and our mission. Nothing is transactional.
· Do the hard(er) thing. We reject complacency and embody a growth mindset because it’s more fulfilling. Being resilient, flexible, and adaptable is challenging. Seeking and delivering honest feedback is hard. Embracing open-mindedness, intellectual honesty, and respectful disagreement is tough. Being relentlessly curious, simplifying complexity, and thinking through 2nd/3rd order effects of decisions takes more work. Being highly responsive and making data-driven decisions requires more effort. We choose to do them anyway. We find reward in pushing ourselves and others beyond our comfort zones.
