DNA Payments appoints new chief financial officer to propel strategic growth

DNA Payments, one of the largest independent, fully vertically integrated omnichannel payment companies in the UK and EU, has made an important appointment to further bolster its finance and senior leadership teams.

Preete Janda has joined its board as chief financial officer following a recruitment process led by finance recruitment specialist Headstar.

Preete, a chartered accountant, arrives with a proven track record in developing highly effective finance and tax functions and implementing strategic financial planning to accelerate organizational growth. Her extensive experience spans multiple sectors including technology, payment, e-commerce, retail and media – making her an ideal fit for DNA Payments as the company scales its operations.

In her new role, Preete is responsible for creating a best-in-class finance function that supports transformative change and growth within the organization. She will join DNA’s Executive Committee and will provide strategic partnership and support to the CEO on all financial matters.

Jan-Pieter Lips, chief executive officer at DNA Payments, said:

“Headstar did an incredible job of identifying top candidates from the very niche payments industry, ensuring we had an outstanding pool of candidates to choose from.

“Preete’s exceptional leadership and strategic financial acumen will be invaluable as we continue to execute our growth plans, which include expanding our product offerings and our market presence both in the UK and internationally.

“Since its inception in 2018, DNA Payments has experienced phenomenal growth and I’m confident that with Preete on board, we will further accelerate our momentum.”
