Description

Today on What the Flux: In Conversation, we’re excited to welcome Lee Hatton

Lee is Block’s Financial Operations Lead,. Block being the $45 billion USD global fintech giant. It’s the company behind Cash App, Square, music platform TIDAL and of course Afterpay,

She started her career in financial services roles across New Zealand, Australia, the UK, and the US before becoming CEO of UBank. From there, she led Suncorp’s Banking & Wealth arm, served on the Xero board, and joined Afterpay just before it became part of Block in 2022.

  • What she’s learned leading in banking vs fintech
