Fintech business Total processing has appointed Phil Astall as chief operating officer, Harry Luscombe as commercial director and Jonathan McGee as finance manager.
Previously a global senior director at travel company Expedia, Phil Astall joins with extensive experience in delivering improvements to business performance, costs, revenue and customer success. His appointment comes at a key moment, as Total Processing welcomes several new high profile clients, amongst them, two leading fashion retailers, to its merchant portfolio. Bringing more than 10 years of experience across sales, marketing and operations, Harry Luscombe joins from SaaS platform company Mercarto, where he was a commercial director. In his new role, Luscombe will help to identify profitable sales and marketing strategy as the company expands further into the EMEA market. Jonathan McGee joins the business following more than six years with payments company Worldpay, as an accounting manager. In his new role as finance manager he will support Total Processing as it scales up its ambitious growth trajectory and global expansion.
Chief executive, Rob Pailin, said: “The recruitment of Phil, Harry and Jonathan is another huge acquisition for our growing team. We’re on a mission to become the most customer-focused payments company in the world and having the right people in place is vital to us realising that ambition. Their knowledge, skills and experience will be massive going forward, and I’m looking forward to seeing what they each help us achieve.”
Phil Astall said: “It’s fair to say a lot of people have been taking notice of Total Processing, it’s gone from a small Manchester start-up to a global fintech in the space of just four years, thanks to its advanced payments platform, exceptional customer support and partner ecosystem. I’m thrilled with the opportunity to play a part in its growth journey and proud to be a part of this exceptionally hard working and knowledgeable team.”
Founded in 2015, Total Processing now claims to be one of the UK’s fastest growing fintech companies, delivering its services to more than 3,000 clients and disrupting the payments sector through the delivery of custom payment solutions across online and in-store channels worldwide.
