My last jobs were focused a lot business development. Nevertheless, during my career I’ve covered Online Payments, Operational, Financial, Risk, Compliance and Legal domains, aside from the main tasks. I am a young, highly motivated, ambitious specialist with over 9 years of professional experience almost 5 of them at the C-level position. 

I possess solid knowledge in online payments, financial consulting, financial analysis, financial/cost accounting, business development, data analysis and project management, operations management, team management.

I discourage my teams from having senseless overtime for the reasons "we used to do it like this" or “we don't have enough people to cover the workload". I believe the overtime is necessary only if there is rapid business growth which does not allow to adjust the quantity and quality of needed personnel, or there is a force majeure situation, in other cases, overtime means that ether SOPs and processes are not optimized, and/or no one wanting to automate the "manual" tasks.

I am fluent in English. Ukrainian is my mother tongue. I have intermediate knowledge of Polish and Spanish, basic knowledge of German (A2).
No Forex, Nutrition, Crypto, or related business.
