YOUR MISSION
You will be working with the FX, Liquidity & Funding Manager to monitor all bank accounts, ensuring we have the right money in the right place at the right time. This will involve calculating required balances and booking foreign exchange spot trades.
Responsibilities
This role would suit someone with experience in settlements and fast paced operations. The candidate must be a self-starter and have a resilient mindset with a passion for improving processes. Any experience with the building and deployment of 1st line controls would be advantageous.
About The Team
This role sits in the Operations team at Vitesse which is at the heart of the business. Our goal within Operations is to run and improve critical and regulated processes that enable the effective running of payment and treasury services for our clients. Operations has everything in place to ensure our clients and third parties can make payment easily, effectively and to the right recipient.
The Operations Team Is Spilt Into Four Areas
Skills:
Formed in 2014 by a team of proven FinTech entrepreneurs, we are an FCA regulated payments business that is driven to be the payment partner of choice for the insurance market, by providing global payment services and treasury optimisation. Operating one of the largest domestic banking and payment settlement networks in the world, we give our customers direct access to more than 170 countries and territories, covering over 110 currencies. Through a single integration, insurers can use this network to pay claims in as fast as 45 seconds, delivering a better customer experience to their claimants. Our market-leading treasury optimisation service brings complete control and transparency to insurers and allows them to have their money in the right place, at the right time, to make that all important payment - fast, and when their customers need it most.
With now over 160 employees across Europe and our London headquarters, $26m series B funding in 2022 in the bag and approaching £8bn in processed transactions, we are only just getting started.
We are collaborative, customer centric and work with integrity, whilst partnering with some of the biggest insurance leaders including Lloyd’s of London and Many Pets. We take huge pride in our company culture, ensuring that everyone has a part to play, an opportunity to be heard, be involved, and the ability to make a real difference.
As we continue to scale up, we want like-minded humans to join us on this exciting journey. Are you ready?
