Role summary

Design and launch the bank's credit proposition in Spain - credit cards first, then instalments and personal loans - on a processor-hosted issuing model, and make it defensible under Spanish consumer-credit rules. You bring the product, the risk and the implementation together: scheme membership and certifications, credit decisioning, billing and revolving mechanics, collections, and the conduct requirements Banco de España will test.

• Define the credit card and consumer credit product set (charge, revolving, instalments/BNPL at checkout), pricing and terms compliant with Ley 16/2011, Orden ETD/699/2020 and Banco de España Circular 4/2020, with APR benchmarking against Banco de España averages and usury case law.

• Lead scheme and processor implementation: Visa/Mastercard membership model (affiliate vs. principal), BIN strategy, issuing processor selection and onboarding, STMP/Redsys certification, network certification, personalisation bureau, tokenisation (VTS/MDES, Apple Pay/Google Pay) and 3-D Secure ACS for SCA.

• Design credit decisioning and limit management: affordability and solvency assessment, bureau data (ASNEF, Experian, CIRBE), scorecards, limit strategy, anti-fraud at application.

• Own billing, statements, revolving and instalment mechanics, interest and fee computation, minimum-payment illustration and annual amortisation statements required for revolving products.

• Define collections and recoveries, forbearance, and the customer-communication rules; integrate with core banking, GL, CIRBE reporting and the SEPA rails (SDD for repayments).

• Lead PCI DSS scoping with Security (processor-hosted data, tokens), PCI PIN and PCI 3DS requirements, and the scheme risk/dispute programmes (chargebacks, fraud thresholds).

• Run product and certification testing: authorisation, clearing and settlement cycles, billing cycles, dispute flows, wallet provisioning; pilot with employees and controlled customer cohorts.

• Prepare the conduct evidence for Banco de España and the internal Consumer Duty-style outcome monitoring; handle complaints policy for credit products.
