Fintech business bolsters team with significant new hire

Lee Atkinson, Chief Operating Officer at Modern World Business Solutions

Fintech business, Modern World Business Solutions, has made a significant new hire to support its mission to improve transparency in the payments industry.

With over 20 years of experience building sales and marketing operational strategies for large enterprise technology businesses, Lee Atkinson has been appointed as chief operating officer.

Lee will be responsible for embedding new structures across Modern World Business Solutions to ensure effective operations and service as the business continues its growth trajectory.

He will also oversee the company’s recently-launched platform, The Payments Market – the UK’s only comparison website that effectively compares merchant services, to provide a transparent and secure experience for merchants when selecting their next payment provider.

Headquartered in Cambridgeshire, Modern World Business Solutions works closely with leading acquiring banks, including Elavon, AIB, Cashflows, Trust Payments, emerchantpay, Worldpay and many others.

On track to turnover in excess of £3 million by the end of 2023, the business is quickly disrupting the payments industry – with plans in place to launch more new solutions within the coming months.

Speaking about his new role, Lee Atkinson, chief operating officer at Modern World Business Solutions, said: “Since meeting Warren and the team a couple of years ago I have watched the business go from strength to strength.

“In addition to being a thriving ISO, Modern World Business Solutions continues to deliver impressive new technologies including recently launching The Payments Market, which is the first true payments comparison site where you can instantly see prices online rather than waiting for a sales call.

“I am thrilled to have joined the team and can’t wait to be a part of the business’ journey as it continues to grow and thrive.”

Warren Whitfield, CEO and founder of Modern World Business Solutions, added: “Lee’s background in sales enablement and operations will be vital as our business gears up for the huge growth throughout 2024 and beyond that we are forecasting.

“We wanted to bring in some expertise to ensure the correct foundations are in place for us to cope with what’s to come, and to add that extra layer of operational growth strategy to the ever-changing team here at Modern World Business Solutions.

“I look forward to working with Lee to take the business to the heights I know we can and are set to achieve.”
