VP, Professional Services - North America • Banking & Intermediaries

THE OPPORTUNITY

ACI Worldwide powers global payments for over 1,300 of the world's leading financial institutions, intermediaries, and merchants.

Our payments software underpins trillions of dollars in transactions each year - and Professional Services is the engine that turns that software into client outcomes.

This role is a rare opportunity to lead Professional Services across one of ACI's most strategically significant regions.

North America is home to some of our largest and most complex banking and intermediary relationships - institutions that depend on ACI's platforms as mission-critical infrastructure.

You'll lead a team of over 100 Professional Services professionals delivering the full spectrum of services: new business implementations, add-on product installations, custom development for clients, professional technical support, and training.

It's a broad remit, a real P&L, and a mandate to raise the bar on what enterprise Professional Services delivery looks like in North America.

We're at an inflection point - investing in standardized delivery models, AI-enabled workflows, and the leadership infrastructure to scale.

The VP, Professional Services North America will be at the center of that transformation, with the authority to shape it.

If you're a Professional Services leader who builds trust with clients and teams in equal measure, who can hold a P&L and a people agenda at the same time, and who wants to define what great looks like in enterprise payments delivery - this is the role.
