About Desiree Wright

High performing, experienced senior executive assistant with a strong track record of supporting C-Suite level leaders across a wide range of international sectors including the financial services and automative industries. With 30+ years’ experience in the role, I have spent the last ten years supporting Bruce Lowthers, CEO of Paysafe and formerly President of FIS, a Fortune 250 company. I thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced working environment where no two days are the same. A hard-working team player who is highly adept at relationship building, I also bring outstanding organizational, time management and problem-solving skills to the role. In addition to my executive support responsibilities, I am deeply engaged in charitable initiatives. At Paysafe, I’ve proudly contributed to community partnerships with the American Heart Association, Dreams Come True, Breast Cancer Research, and The King’s Trust in the UK. With Blood Cancer United (formerly LLS), I am honored to serve Chair Emeritus for the 2025 Light the Night Executive Committee, a role that reflects my dedication to supporting causes that bring hope to children and others in need, helping create opportunities for brighter futures.

Experience

1. Executive Assistant to CEO and Executive Director

   Paysafe

   May 2022 — Present · Jacksonville, FL, US

   Paysafe is a global, specialized payments platform which enables businesses and consumers to connect and transact seamlessly through industry-leading capabilities in payment processing, digital wallet, and online cash solutions. As Executive Assistant to the CEO, my core function is to manage the office of the CEO and create a seamless working environment that enables him to thrive and deliver against his goals of growing the business. This includes managing his day to day calendar activities; building a strong network of relationships within the organization, across the board of directors, and throughout the payments and fintech industries; and owning the delivery of events and special projects including strategy planning sessions and team building activities.Given the CEO’s additional focus on corporate social responsibility, I also actively engage in many of these activities too, ensuring that the business operates with integrity at all times, creates an inclusive environment for all, and adds value to the communities where our employees and customers live and work.
