Bill.com, a leader in financial process automation, announced the appointment of Josh Goines as Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships. In his new role, Goines will lead the company's strategic relationships with technology companies, including Intuit, and partnerships with some of the largest U.S. financial institutions. Goines also will identify new partnership opportunities for Bill.com.
According to a recent PWC report, 82% of financial institutions expect to increase technology partnerships in the next three to five years. This comes alongside an increase in demand from banks for automation in advanced technologies to help enhance their offerings. To meet these evolving needs, Bill.com has established partnerships with some of the largest U.S. financial institutions to help clients save time and improve cash flow through automating their back office. In his role, Josh will leverage his experience to enable existing partners and identify new partnership opportunities where the Bill.com Back Office Cloud can help strengthen their offerings for small businesses and mid-size companies.
“Bill.com is proud to be partnering with some of the nation’s leading and most innovative financial institutions, banks, and accounting software providers. I’m delighted to have Josh on our team to lead and grow these relationships,” said Bill.com CEO Renė Lacerte. “His creativity and deep experience in the industry will serve us all well.”
Prior to joining Bill.com, Goines was at PayPal where he led the company’s partnership strategy that resulted in partnerships with major payment networks and leading global financial institutions – including Chase, Bank of America, and Citibank. Goines also led the strategy and execution on a variety of customer and merchant-facing programs. Before PayPal, he was the CFO at Tempo Payments where he worked with open technology platforms to design scalable end-to-end experiences for the customer.
“Businesses of all types, sizes and industries rely on financial institutions for a range of financial services,” Goines says. “I’m excited to join a company that values the opportunities that technology partnerships provide and enable us to bring innovative solutions to small and mid-size businesses.”
