Nium, the global leader in real-time cross-border payments, has announced two key executive appointments that enhance its leadership team and emphasize the company’s commitment to driving efficient and responsible growth.
Andre Mancl has been appointed as Chief Financial Officer. In this role, he will manage all financial strategies for Nium and lead the company’s global finance organization, which includes planning, treasury, tax, reporting, corporate development, and investor relations. He will be crucial in guiding Nium towards profitable growth and efficiency at scale, while creating value for all shareholders.
Philip Doyle joins Nium as Chief Compliance Officer. He will head Nium’s global risk and compliance programs, ensuring they evolve and expand in line with increasing regulatory expectations. Both executives will report to Prajit Nanu, Founder and CEO of Nium, and will be part of the company’s Executive Committee.
Before joining Nium, Mancl was the Chief Financial Officer at ChowNow, a prominent software platform connecting independent restaurants with their diners through digital products. His banking career includes advising and executing transactions for companies such as Lyft, Snap, Ancestry.com, Facebook (Meta), AppLovin, and GoDaddy. Prior to his investment banking career, Mancl served as a distinguished SH-60B Seahawk Helicopter Pilot in the United States Navy, flying missions in various regions and earning the Order of the Daedalian for landing a helicopter in distress. He holds an MBA from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) and a BS in Industrial and Systems Engineering from the University of Southern California (USC).
“Throughout my career in the technology sector, I’ve witnessed firsthand the profound impact of technology innovation on the global economy,” Mancl said. “Joining Nium at this pivotal moment is one of the most exciting moments of my career, and I’m humbled to be part of such an exceptional team. I look forward to playing a meaningful role in Nium’s next phase of growth.”
Doyle comes to Nium with decades of experience in risk and compliance, most recently serving as Chief Risk and Compliance Officer for Zepz, a leading remittance company. His previous roles include senior financial crime positions at banks such as Revolut, Clearbank, and Tandem Bank. A lifelong “fraud fighter,” Doyle has also held fraud prevention roles at FICO, SAV Credit Limited, Visa, and Morgan Stanley. He holds an MSc from the University of Nottingham and a BSc from the University of Sussex.
“Payments is built on the trust we earn from the banks and businesses we serve,” Doyle stated. “There could not be a better time to start my journey with Nium with so much investment going into expanding our compliance programs to be best-in-class.”
