Paysafe hands senior strategy and innovation role to Carroll

In her new position, Carroll will be tasked with further developing the provider’s corporate vision and long-term growth strategy, as well as leading on its product innovation and capital expenditure programmes.

Carroll joins Paysafe after almost three years as chief product officer for Experian’s Decision Analytics business, prior to which she served in a number of senior roles with Visa in San Francisco, California.

Earlier in her career, Carroll also worked for Discover Financial Services, Citi Group, Cubic and TranSys.

“Nicole is a highly talented executive with a flair for understanding both evolving customer needs and the potential of new technologies,” Paysafe chief executive Bruce Lowthers said.

“She brings a very impressive track record of delivering exciting new innovations for the companies she has previously worked for, and this experience will be invaluable as we continue on our path to transform Paysafe and execute on our long-term growth plan.”

Carroll added: “I believe Paysafe has a lot of potential to re-position itself for long-term growth by building on the work Bruce and his team have started, and fully leveraging its unique payments network and digital assets.  

“I look forward to playing my part on that journey and seeing Paysafe return to its highly innovative and entrepreneurial roots.”

Carroll is the latest addition to the leadership team at Paysafe, following the appointment of Rob Gatto as its first chief revenue officer and Alex Gersh as chief financial officer, both in August last year.
