**What a Senior Director/ Head of Policy and Business Planning and Operations does at Visa,**

Across the Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region, governments are intensifying their focus on fundamental areas of payments policy and regulation - such as pricing and interchange, local processing, national supervision, and competition - while at the same time they are expanding into new areas such as open data, artificial intelligence, real-time payments, digital currency, and sustainability/green finance, for example.

To be successful in the Head of Policy capacity, this leader should be familiar with regulatory processes in key LAC markets and capable of quickly reading, interpreting, and evaluating large amounts of policy material taken from official sources. They must be comfortable synthesizing and summarizing all of the available data to anticipate changes in the operating environment and advise Visa leaders of potential impacts on the business.
