Head of Product - Cards

Your impact

Cards is one of the most strategically important products at Mollie. It is the primary payment method operating at a global scale and the central enabler for Mollie to serve larger, more sophisticated merchants. As the accountable lead for online cards acceptance, you will own one of the highest net revenue-generating areas in the business, and your work will directly shape Mollie's ability to compete for and retain enterprise and mid-market merchants.

As the Head of Product for Cards Acquiring, you will own the end-to-end product strategy and execution for one of the most critical payment methods. You will bridge the gap between heavy technical infrastructure and high-impact commercial enablement. Leading a cross-functional team of around 20 people that includes product delivery managers, a product partnership person, a dedicated data person, and a PMM, you will scale Mollie’s cards capabilities beyond Europe, unlock new merchant categories, and ensure our proposition wins the hearts of highly sophisticated merchants. You will also work directly with payment schemes and external partners, making decisions that influence both the product roadmap and Mollie's broader positioning in the market.

The cards domain is expected to become an increasingly primary driver of Mollie's growth over time, with the potential for the online and in-person card acceptance platforms to converge and expand the scope of this role significantly. If you want to own something that matters at a company that is moving fast in the right direction, this is it.
