Company Overview

Our client is a leading PSP working within high risk verticals such as iGaming, Adult, CBD, Forex and others.

To date all of their sales have been managed by a sister company, but with the growth of the business they are now looking to build a dedicated team focused purely on PSP sales, starting with a Head of Sales.
