He will report directly to Mangopay’s CEO, Romain Mazeries.
Mazeries commented on the new hire:
“We’ve started 2023 really strongly with our second acquisition in 4 months. Building a world-class payment company for platforms and marketplaces is no small task and has its own unique set of challenges, which we need talented people to help us achieve our objectives. As a former CEO and advisor for Fintech companies, Michal will be a key asset in supporting our growth, structuration, and coordination plans. We are excited to have him join us as we look forward to continuing our successful trajectory and delivering value for our customers and stakeholders.”
