Founded in 1981 and headquartered in Killorglin, Country Kerry, Fexco promotes itself as a finance and business solutions provider, specialising in currency conversion, international payments, asset finance and managed services, among other areas.
As its new CEO of corporate payments, effective this month, Savidge will be tasked with leading the division’s provision of payment processing services and enabling its clients to issue payments with accuracy and speed.
The division is regulated in its home market by the Central Bank of Ireland, while its overseas operations in the UK are overseen by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Prior to joining Fexco Corporate Payments, Savidge served several high profile roles at JP Morgan Payments, most recently as managing director, and before this, as chief revenue officer of the B2B paytech firm TransferMate Global Payments.
Discussing her most recent appointment via LinkedIn, Savidge likens her ascent to the position of CEO as “a little bit like a family wedding”, in that she claims to have maintained a professional partnership with the company for the last 15 years.
