AccessPay launches Treasury Consultancy Service led by Karen Fagan

AccessPay

AccessPay, the leading bank integration provider, announced the launch of its consulting arm to help organisations transform their payments, collections and treasury functions. This offering led by newly appointed Karen Fagan, Head of Treasury Consultancy Services, will take advantage of her extensive experience from her previous role as treasury leader at media giant ITV. Karen will assume the role of subject matter expert (SME) for AccessPay’s cash management solutions, advising on strategic treasury solutions both internally and to the company’s clients.

Based in Manchester and reporting to CEO, Anish Kapoor, Karen will combine her extensive experience of leading multiple treasury transformation initiatives at ITV with her deep understanding of the AccessPay Platform. Working closely with commercial teams, the new consultancy service will educate businesses on how bank integration can provide the cash visibility they need without investing in an expensive treasury management system. It will demonstrate the practical applications of AccessPay’s solutions and advise on how different organisations can optimise their cash management practices cost-effectively.

Anish Kapoor, CEO, AccessPay, commented: “Karen’s appointment marks a significant step in our strategy to expand AccessPay’s consultancy services and give clients unparalleled support in their financial transformation projects. This is a truly cross-functional role, supporting multiple areas across the business and Karen’s experience on the client side gives her a unique perspective that will be invaluable as we continue to grow and refine our offerings. We’re thrilled to have her on board and look forward to the impact she will make on our consultancy services and client success.”

One of Karen’s key responsibilities will be to collaborate with stakeholders across the business on AccessPay’s ISO 20022 proposition. She will lead the development and delivery of training sessions aimed at helping clients understand and implement the new standard while ensuring AccessPay exceeds client expectations during this industry-wide transition.

Karen Fagan, Head of Treasury Consultancy Services, AccessPay, commented: “I’ve been the SME on many transformation projects over the years, many of which had AccessPay at the core. Whether it’s implementing a cash pool, an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) tool, bank reconciliation automation, or Treasury Management Software (TMS), transformation projects need bank connectivity. I wanted to continue working on treasury-related technology projects and when this opportunity with AccessPay came up, it was the perfect fit.

 AccessPay has been a key partner in many of the projects I led at ITV and I am excited to help shape the future of AccessPay’s consultancy services and support our clients in achieving their long-term goals. The support AccessPay provides to women in technology was also a big draw for me and is reflected in their recent placement in the UK’s Best Workplaces for Women™ 2024 list.”

Karen initially plans to work with a select group of customers to understand their long-term strategic goals and develop tailored plans to help them achieve their desired outcomes. She will also offer deeper insights into how effective cash management can drive growth and financial stability.
