Travel Payments Consultant
<p>We are seeking a high-impact <strong>Travel Payments Consultant</strong> to serve as the lead advisor for our clients. This is a <strong>customer-facing strategic role</strong> designed for someone who can walk into a boardroom and explain how a payment architecture could have an impact on month end reconciliation but also solve for global tax fragmentation.</p>
<p>You won't just be recommending payment solutions; you will be designing the "Financial Blueprint" for global companies. Your goal is to help clients navigate the friction between a frictionless checkout and the "hard walls" of international <strong>tax compliance and e-invoicing mandates.</strong></p>
<h3><strong>Key Responsibilities</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Strategic Advisory:</strong> Lead discovery workshops with client CFOs and CTOs to audit their current payment stacks and identify opportunities for efficiencies and optimization.</li>
<li><strong>Solution Architecture:</strong> Design end-to-end flows that integrate payment gateways with <strong>e-invoicing </strong>to ensure legal compliance without ruining the user experience.</li>
<li><strong>Tax & Compliance Roadmap:</strong> Educate clients on the impact of <strong>Continuous Transaction Controls (CTC)</strong> and help them transition from manual invoicing to automated, real-time fiscal reporting.</li>
<li><strong>Vendor Selection & Orchestration:</strong> Act as a neutral advisor to help clients select the right mix of PSPs (Payment Service Providers), Tax Engines, and Middleware to support their specific geographic footprint.</li>
<li><strong>Implementation Oversight:</strong> Bridge the gap between the client’s business requirements and the technical delivery teams to ensure the final solution meets local fiscal "truth."</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>Experience</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>5+ years processing and reconciling travel-related payments including airline tickets, hotel accommodations, car rentals, and ancillary travel services.</li>
<li>5+ years managing multiple payment methods such as virtual cards, lodge cards, corporate credit cards, and direct billing arrangements.</li>
<li>5+ years reviewing and validating supplier invoices for accuracy, contractual compliance, and correct authorization prior to payment.</li>
<li>Investigate and resolve payment discrepancies, chargebacks, and vendor billing issues efficiently.</li>
<li>Partner with travel management companies (TMCs), suppliers, and internal stakeholders to support seamless payment operations.</li>
<li>Maintain accurate financial records and support month-end close, reconciliations, and reporting activities.</li>
<li>Monitor transactions for duplicate charges, fraud risks, and policy exceptions.</li>
<li>Assist with the implementation and optimization of travel payment and expense management systems.</li>
<li>Provide guidance to travelers and internal teams regarding payment processes and policies.</li>
<li>Ensure adherence to company policies, financial controls, and regulatory requirements.</li>
<li>Nice to have: 5+ years exposure to VAT and other indirect taxes related to travel services, including basic validation of tax treatment on supplier invoices and support for tax reporting or recovery processes.</li>
</ul>
