Job Description
Responsibilities:
Own liquidity and treasury operations (daily):
• Maintain sufficient liquidity across NGN and foreign currency rails to support customer flows.
• Plan and execute rebalancing/prefunding across wallets, accounts, and partner routes.
• Build a repeatable daily cadence: positions, inflows/outflows, settlements, exceptions.
Execute and manage counterparties (Banking, OTC, IMTO, BDC):
• Source and manage liquidity via banks, OTC desks, IMTOs, BDCs, and, most importantly, stablecoin providers.
• Negotiate terms: spreads, fees, limits, settlement SLAs, dispute handling, and escalation paths.
• Build redundancy so no single counterparty can take the business down.
• Handle high-touch accounts and large tickets: quoting, execution coordination, and settlement updates.
Controls, reconciliation, and treasury reporting:
• Own reconciliation across partner statements, internal ledgers, wallets, and bank movements.
• Create lightweight but real controls: approvals, limits, audit trails, and exception workflows.
• Produce weekly reporting to the CEO: balances, exposures, P&L from spreads, counterparty scorecards, incident logs.
Build systems and automation (AI-first ops):
• Use AI to accelerate reconciliation, monitoring, exception triage, documentation, and analysis.
• Design dashboards/playbooks so the function scales without chaos.
• Work closely with Engineering/Product to automate money movement and reduce manual steps.
Requirements:
• 5+ years in treasury/FX/liquidity operations in Nigeria (bank, fintech, payments, OTC, IMTO, or equivalent).
• Strong real-world understanding of Nigerian banking flows and FX execution (including constraints and failure modes).
• Comfort managing business accounts and high-touch customers (SMEs/HNIs), including large tickets.
• Proven operational rigor: reconciliation, controls, exception handling, and settlement management.
• High agency: you proactively build systems, not just run tasks.
Traits we care about:
• Self-starting, hardworking, and intellectually curious.
• Calm under pressure; systematic in messy markets.
• AI-first operator (you use AI to drive throughput and precision).
• Strong ethics and good judgment (you’ll be trusted with sensitive execution and pricing decisions).
Bonus:
• Experience routing across multiple liquidity sources (banks + OTC + IMTO/BDC) and optimizing for fill rate and price.
• Familiarity with stablecoins/crypto as rails (USDC/USDT), on/off-ramps, or exchange/OTC operations.
• Experience standing up treasury operations in early-stage (process + dashboards + controls from scratch).
Compensation: Very competitive salary (early role, high ownership, equity).
