Montevideo,
Uruguay, September 6, 2024- dLocal, a leading cross-border payment platform specializing
in high-growth markets, announces the appointment of Carlos Menendez as Chief
Operating Officer (COO), effective immediately. Jacobo Singer, who currently serves as COO and Co-President, will continue to serve in
both roles during a transition period until December 15, 2024, at which time he will step down from both roles. During this transition
period, Carlos and Jacobo will work closely to ensure a smooth handover of responsibilities. Following the transition period, Jacobo
will continue to serve as a member of our Board of Directors.
“We are excited
to welcome Carlos as our new COO. His proven track record in scaling businesses and developing strategic partnerships will be invaluable
as we continue to grow and expand our operations,” said Pedro Arnt, CEO of dLocal. Carlos Menendez brings a wealth of experience
and a proven track record in global strategic leadership and operational management, with over 30 years of experience in world class
companies across payments, banking and consumer industries, including Mastercard, Citibank and Procter & Gamble. Throughout his career,
Carlos has been instrumental in scaling businesses, managing global P&Ls and leading strategic initiatives. Mr. Menendez holds a
bachelor’s degree from Harvard University and an MBA from Wharton.
Mr. Menendez will
report directly to Pedro Arnt. “Carlos is a highly respected and accomplished leader, and he’s played a pivotal role in advising
and scaling some of the world’s most successful fintech companies,” Arnt added.
“I am honored
and excited to join dLocal as COO,” said Menendez. “The company’s success in placing customers first and serving many
of the largest technology companies and enterprises in the world presents a truly unique business opportunity. I am confident that my
expertise in designing, building, and scaling organizations will further position dLocal to achieve great things going forward.”
“I am delighted
about this new step for the company and looking forward to welcoming Carlos to the executive team,” said Singer. “As I transition
to focusing my efforts with dLocal as a member of the Board of Directors, I am confident that Carlos’s leadership will drive continuous
innovation, ensuring our customers’ success and enabling global merchants to connect with billions of emerging market consumers
through one seamless platform.”
Eduardo Azar, Chairman
of the Board of Directors, stated, “We are grateful for Jacobo’s significant contributions and leadership during his time
