Who leads Fiserv?
Takis Georgakopoulos serves as Chief Executive Officer; Paul Todd serves as Chief Financial Officer; Jennifer LaClair serves as Senior Executive Vice President. The leadership pattern is important because strategic decisions, budget authority, and operational execution are often separated in a company of this scale.
Who actually makes buying decisions at Fiserv?
Most purchase decisions start with the business owner closest to the pain: advertising yield, payment margin, customer operations, engineering velocity, compliance, finance automation, or station and field operations. Finance, procurement, security, privacy, and legal teams then shape the approval process.
How is Fiserv organized as it scales?
Fiserv's ~38,000 employee base implies specialized teams rather than founder-led buying. Sellers should map the relevant product line, identify the budget owner, and prepare proof for security, integration, ROI, and implementation lift.
