paysecure announces new CEO
Thursday 11th November 2021
Former Westpac Executive Manager Shane Dooley takes on CEO role at paysecure.
Experienced financial executive, Shane Dooley, has made the move into the Fintech Startup world taking on the position of CEO at paysecure. With 15+ years of experience in the financial services industry, Shane’s previous roles at Westpac have contributed to the banks’ multi-million dollar increase in revenue over the past 15 years, and most recently he led the go-to-market strategy for the most successful new product launch in the Business Bank’s recent history.
Dooley has been a Senior Executive Manager at Westpac since 2017. During his time at Westpac, he has led sales teams, managed regions, launched new products to market, considered strategic investments, and led partnerships with various FinTech companies. He holds a Bachelor of Laws, Master of Business Administration and Master of Business and Commerce.
Dooley is uniquely placed to launch this innovative FinTech startup, and brings extensive experience leading go-to-market teams in Australia’s heavily regulated financial services and banking industry. After a long stint at Westpac, Shane is overflowing with ideas on how to successfully drive both short-and-long term innovation for the budding startup.
“I’m excited to be joining paysecure at a time where payment FinTech’s are not only disrupting the market but also creating value propositions for customers that hadn’t previously existed,” Dooley explains.
‘’Whether I am climbing mountain tops across Africa and Asia, or running a marathon, I continually attempt to grow, better, and challenge myself. I can now take this same ethos to the team at paysecure. I’m looking forward to driving the team, knowing that what we are working on really will help people.”
Dooley is passionate about paysecure’s core value; to put financial confidence in the hands of everyone and every industry.
“Having personally experienced shoddy work from the hands of a tradie while renovating my house, I knew there was a desperate need for a platform like paysecure.” Dooley said.
“I was disappointed and frustrated. I lamented the fact that I had little recourse, especially as the company already had my money and wasn’t vested to try and rectify the problem.”
“If I had used a platform like paysecure, it would have meant my funds were held in trust until the work was rectified to an acceptable standard.”
Shane is dedicated to delivering paysecure’s mission; to make market economy sales and service transactions trustworthy.
About paysecure: This fresh Aussie company is helping buyers and sellers change the way transactions are managed in the service and market economy. paysecure is a FinTech platform that enables individuals and businesses to buy and sell with confidence, safely and securely.
It’s payments but with a twist. Money will not fully change hands until the buyer has verified their goods, giving them full confidence that an item or service is legitimate. Sellers can set up agreements that include payment milestones, trusting that funds are held securely, and neutrality is maintained using blockchain technology.
The market economy has exploded in recent years with the likes of Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, Carsales.com and others taking charge. As these marketplaces grow, so does the risk to buyers and sellers. Add this to the ever present challenges to both parties when engaging in large multi-milestone professional services projects like construction. paysecure takes away the risk of receiving substandard quality goods or services and gives certainty that sellers will get paid if their buyer isn’t legitimate.
