Leading payments issuer processor Global Processing Services has appointed three C-level executives: Richard Hodgson as chief financial officer, Shaun Puckrin as chief product officer and Jerome Gudgeon as chief technology officer.

 

The new hires will strengthen the executive leadership team of GPS, the payments processing partner for some of the globally recognised and successful fintechs on the market. This even includes Revolut, Starling Bank and Curve, as the business drives its global expansion plans beyond Europe and APAC.

Richard Hodgson is responsible for scaling the GPS Finance function as it expands geographically, bringing more customers onto the GPS platform. As a qualified accountant, he  brings with him over 25 years of experience in financial services, pharmaceuticals, and FMCG. 

That said, Shaun Puckrin is responsible for setting the product strategy and roadmap at GPS in his role as chief product officer, ensuring that these align with the company’s overall commercial strategy. With more than 20 years of  experience in payments, mobile and fintech, Shaun has a track record of developing award-winning B2B and B2C products. 

In his capacity as chief technology officer, Jerome Gudgeon spearheads the technology strategy and delivery for the business, which includes overall responsibility for the development and day-to-day technology operations of the GPS Apex platform. Having held senior technology and leadership positions at American Express, TD Bank, Fidelity and a Swiss Private Bank, Jerome brings more than 25 years’ experience in payments, investments and banking technology. Alongside this, he also founded two fintech start-ups in payments and investments.
