⚖️ Head of Risk & Payments

✨ High-Growth Gambling/Sport Creator Platform

🌍 Remote (US – Miami Preference)

💲 Salary: $180,000 – $200,000 base + Equity

A fast-growing creator and sports platform is hiring a Head of Risk & Payments to take ownership of a mission-critical function currently managed by the founding team.

The company supports thousands of active creators and processes millions of dollars in monthly payment volume. As the business scales, they need someone to stabilize, optimize, and build a scalable payments and risk function across refunds, disputes, fraud, chargebacks, and payment operations.

This is a high-ownership role with direct founder access and a clear path toward broader finance leadership, with potential C-suite track upside.

What You’ll Own

• End-to-end ownership of payments, risk, refunds, disputes, chargebacks, and fraud operations
• Oversight of the current payments stack, including payment processing, subscription billing, internal tooling, and data workflows
• Auditing existing processes to identify operational, financial, and fraud risk
• Building scalable policies, controls, reporting, and automation
• Partnering with customer support, finance, product, and leadership to improve payment operations
• Hiring and managing 1–2 people as the function scales

What They’re Looking For

• 6+ years in payments, risk, fraud, payment operations, or fintech operations
• Experience in high-volume ecommerce, gaming, marketplace, creator economy, sports betting, subscription, or consumer payments environments
• Strong understanding of payment processors, billing platforms, refunds, disputes, chargebacks, and fraud workflows
• Ability to operate independently in a fast-moving, founder-led environment
• Confident, commercially aware self-starter who can build from scratch while staying close to the detail

Culture Fit

This is a young, high-energy, commercially aggressive company operating at the intersection of creators, sports, and digital commerce. The business moves quickly, runs around major sports moments, and works closely with creators building serious businesses of their own.

The right person will be proactive, confident, low-ego, and comfortable taking ownership without micromanagement.

Compensation

• $180k – $220k Base
• Equity available
• Performance-based raises and bonuses
• Fully remote, with preference for Florida-based candidates
