He has been part of leadership teams at some of the world’s biggest brands and is used to building high-performance teams that are well-equipped to drive revenue growth.”
Colin Neil added: “Creating a world of borderless payments is what got me into the industry and that’s what brings me to Unlimit. I am incredibly excited to join the global leadership team and continue our mission to remove exactly those borders that traditionally would restrict merchants from realising their international aspirations.”
