About The Role
We are seeking a Senior Director of Commercialization & Go‑To‑Market Strategy to lead the brand and CPG track for our Payments Networks division with a focus on Smart Basket, and secondary responsibility for adjacent loyalty solutions. This is a senior individual contributor role responsible for defining how our loyalty and commerce capabilities are positioned, priced, and sold into the Brand and CPG ecosystem. The role serves as a strategic partner to Sales, a commercial voice to Product, and a subject matter expert to the broader organization.
The ideal candidate brings deep experience working with or for consumer brands in the promotional and shopper marketing ecosystem, understands how brands allocate trade and marketing spend, and can translate platform capabilities into compelling, scalable commercial offerings.

- Serve as the first‑line subject matter expert for Sales support, helping to close deals
- Provide support on commercial structuring, contract reviews, redlines, and escalation scenarios
- Operate as a strategic consultant to Sales rather than a quota‑carrying overlay
Product & Market Feedback Loop
- Translate market, client, and sales feedback into actionable inputs for Product Management
- Influence roadmap priorities by connecting real‑world brand demand with product growth
- Ensure product capabilities can be clearly monetized, positioned, and sold at scale
Cross‑Functional Leadership

- Strong understanding of how brands plan, fund, and measure promotions and marketing
- Experience commercializing platform, SaaS, or data‑enabled solutions into enterprise clients
- Proven ability to translate complex capabilities into clear commercial value propositions
- Executive‑level communication skills and comfort engaging senior brand stakeholders
- Ability to manage and prioritize multiple engagements in parallel with a strong agency for driving revenue
Added Bonus If You Have
- Experience selling or enabling sales to Brands, Shopper, Trade, or Media teams
