Mastercard powers economies and empowers people in 200+ countries and territories worldwide. Together with our customers, we’re helping build a sustainable economy where everyone can prosper. We support a wide range of digital payments choices, making transactions secure, simple, smart and accessible. Our technology and innovation, partnerships and networks combine to deliver a unique set of products and services that help people, businesses and governments realize their greatest potential.

Mastercard is building a world where corporate payments are faster, smarter, and more secure. By delivering scalable payment solutions through our global network and partner ecosystem, we enable financial institutions to accelerate their commercial portfolios and make business payments effortless.

The VP B2B Marketing partners closely with Product, Strategy, Commercialization, Sales Enablement and the broader Marketing organization to ensure the portfolio’s differentiated value is delivered across geographies, customer segments, and direct, network, embedded and partner go-to-market channels. This requires strong, proactive communication skills, the ability to drive consensus across audiences and a strong desire to build trust-based relationships that enable fast decision‑making in a dynamic environment.
