Debit card technology provider Intercard has hired Lisa Oliveira as its business development manager for Latin America.
A native of Bahia in northeastern Brazil, Oliveira is fluent in Portuguese and Spanish and has a deep understanding of the cultures of Latin America. As Intercard continues to grow its global business in debit card technology, Oliveira will initially focus on expanding its activities in Mexico and Argentina. She will also develop strategies for the anticipated recovery of the Brazilian market and economy.
Oliveira has expertise in analysing sales trends, developing market strategies and building business in new markets. She comes to Intercard from Ungerboeck Software, where she was sales director for the US and Latin America, developing business with large global corporations. Prior to that, Oliveira interned at the World Trade Center in St Louis, US, creating market expansion plans for American companies seeking partners in Brazil, Canada and China.
"Lisa Oliveira has helped several leading technology companies to deliver creative solutions and great service to customers worldwide," said Scott Sherrod, CEO of Intercard. "As Intercard continues to grow its Latin American business, Lisa will help us strengthen our existing client relationships and develop new ones."
