Cards Workstream Lead | Banking Integration

New banking chapter. Millions of everyday payments. A lot to bring together.

I’m looking for an experienced Cards Workstream Lead to take ownership of the cards agenda within a major UK banking integration.

Credit and debit cards, processing, operations, customer migration and scheme engagement—all with customers relying on their cards to keep working throughout.

You’ll own the workstream plan, governance, milestones and delivery priorities, coordinating activity across business, technology, operations, risk, compliance and external partners.

That means joining up complex dependencies, driving decisions, overseeing migration readiness and keeping senior stakeholders informed. You’ll also help identify efficiencies and integration benefits while protecting customer outcomes.

Keen to speak with people who have:

• Deep cards and payments experience, including processing and operational processes.
• Led complex banking integrations, migrations, separations or transformations.
• Strong programme governance, RAID management and executive reporting skills.
• Experience translating technical, operational and regulatory requirements into practical delivery plans.
• The confidence to challenge, unblock and keep delivery moving.
• Experience working with card processors such as First Data/Fiserv or TSYS would be particularly interesting, especially where you’ve supported platform migrations or processor transitions. Familiarity with Mastercard programmes is also a plus.

ASAP start | Initial contract to end February or March 2027.

If you’ve navigated this kind of complexity before, I’d love to hear how.
