Entersekt, a mobile-first FinTech solutions innovator, has announced the appointment of Nicolas Huss to its board of directors.

Mr Huss brings 2 decades of experience in financial services and payments and holds a strong reputation for organizational acuity combined with strategic vision, reorienting organizations and steering them to success.

“The board and I are delighted to have Nicolas join us. His record of building successful, future-fit businesses puts us in great stead to learn as a leadership team and grow as a company. I have no doubt that his contribution at board level will help drive our expansion internationally,” said Schalk Nolte, CEO of Entersekt.

Most recently, Mr Huss served Ingenico Group as chief executive officer (CEO), a France-based global leader in seamless payments. He is credited with reinvigorating the Paris-hq business in the 2 years he led it, as well as concluding the merger with Wordline in October 2020, which has formed the 4th-largest payment services provider in the world and Europe’s biggest. Prior to Ingenico, Huss headed Visa Europe, during which time it was bought by Visa Inc., to which executive committee he was subsequently appointed.

Besides Entersekt, Huss sits on the board of Amadeus IT Group, a major Spanish software provider to the travel industry. He also chairs its audit committee.

Entersekt’s focus on state-of-the-art security matched with excellent digital user experiences fits the bill. I’m excited to join its stellar board to help build value for shareholders and customers alike,” added Huss.
