BOSTON, MA--(Marketwired - Jun 16, 2016) - Cayan today announced a new addition to its executive team, Rachel Trueblood, who joins as senior vice president of marketing. Rachel, who is a retail industry veteran, is responsible for leading the company's marketing strategy and overseeing its execution to drive the company's overall success.

Rachel joins Cayan at a time of expansive growth -- both domestically and internationally -- having just completed two build outs of their Boston headquarters and a brand new office space in Belfast, Ireland. As the mobile payments industry continues to expand, Rachel's marketing leadership experience in the retail industry will be integral to Cayan's continued development and success.

"Rachel is taking the helm of Cayan's marketing team at a pivotal time," said Henry Helgeson, CEO and co-founder of Cayan. "As Cayan continues to adapt, evolve and lead the way innovating within the payments industry, Rachel's marketing expertise is exactly what we need to continue differentiating ourselves."

At Cayan, Rachel will be leading a team of 20 marketing professionals, including an internal creative and web development team, channel marketing, lead generation, product marketing, brand management, digital and social media, and marketing communications teams.

"It's a privilege to work alongside some of the most innovative, forward-thinking individuals Boston has to offer," said Rachel. "One of our greatest challenges as a company is to put the stake in the ground as leaders in this rapidly changing industry. I'm greatly looking forward to bringing my marketing experience to the table in order to help accomplish that goal."

Rachel received her Bachelor of Science from Syracuse University as well as a Masters of Business Administration from the F.W. Olin Graduate School of Business at Babson College.
