Sezzle, an installment-based payments platform, announced the appointment of Reid Bork to its leadership team. Bork, a former PayPal Executive, was named Vice President of Enterprise Sales at Sezzle, a newly created role in which he will be responsible for leading the company’s large-scale retail acquisition efforts.
Prior to this role, Bork served as Senior Director of Global Accounts at PayPal. Bork had been with PayPal since 2008. In his new role, Bork will be spearheading Sezzle’s enterprise business development efforts.
“The Sezzle board is excited to see another great addition to the leadership team, which will further accelerate our push into the large-scale enterprise market,” commented Sezzle Board Member and former PayPal executive, Kathleen Pierce-Gilmore who worked with Bork at PayPal. “Reid is an expert in the large-scale merchant acquisition space, and we are confident that he is the ideal person to take Sezzle’s enterprise business to the next level.”
Earlier in his career, Bork played a key role in large enterprise strategy at Bill Me Later — a company subsequently acquired by PayPal — which gave him an exceptional foundation in the credit and payments space. At PayPal, Bork quickly became a critical member of the unit responsible for helping the company enter and navigate the large enterprise retail vertical. At PayPal, in his role as Senior Director of Large Enterprise Growth, Bork led the North America Sales Strategy & Development team. In this position, Bork was responsible for establishing the infrastructure of PayPal’s strategic business development efforts that led to PayPal’s immense influence in the payments sector. Following his role as Senior Director of Large Enterprise Growth, Reid was later promoted to Senior Director of Global Accounts at PayPal.
“I look forward to bringing my experience in enterprise sales to the fast-paced, forward-thinking culture at Sezzle and the rapidly accelerating ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ space,” said Bork. “I am thrilled to have an opportunity to extend this company’s reach even further into enterprise – an area I have spent the better portion of my professional career tackling.”
“These are unprecedented times and retailers are looking for innovative solutions to support their customers – the Sezzle installments, based payments solution fits hand in hand with the needs of large enterprise clients. I look forward to adding value to retailers in a time when flexible payment solutions are so crucial,” added Bork.
