Andrew Green

After 10 years in the banking and e-commerce sectors, today I work in the Payment and Contactless product line of the France Telecom Group Strategic Marketing department (Technocentre).

The Payment & Contactless product line develops a range of solutions for countries in the Orange-FT Group. These include online payment, NFC "contactless" applications and 2D codes.

Initially focused on solutions for EME subsidiaries (France, UK, Poland, Spain, Belgium, Romania, Slovakia, Switzerland...), today I manage the product development and country deployment of a mobile payment solution for unbanked populations in emerging countries including Cote d'Ivoire, Senegal, Jordan, Mali, Egypt, Cameroon, Botswana, Madagascar, Moldova, Mauritius and Dominican Republic.

This involves:
- identification of opportunities for mobile payment solutions in each country
- liaising with subsidiaries to share Group strategy and marketing concepts
- accompanying subsidiaries in solution deployment, principally including project management, partnerships (banking, technical, commercial), financial planning, internal processes, marketing and communication.
