Job Title: Settlement Analyst

Description

• We are looking for someone to jump on board our Finance Team.  We would love to bring in someone who is in love with numbers with eagle eyes to detect issues and willing to fix them with little or no supervision. We are looking for a huge self-starter who can make informed judgments and flesh ideas out.  
• We work primarily onsite at our office in Lagos (Lekki) from 9–5 every day, so you would have to be prepared to come to the office every day. And if you say oh, what about COVID, we are all working from home right now but we are firm believers in the human race and our ability to overcome this. So in a matter of time, we would be working from the office again seeing beautiful faces.
• We always and strongly encourage candidates from all backgrounds and identities to apply. With each new hire, we look to diversify, strengthen our team, and be more purposeful about building our culture.
• On the other hand, we look to give you the opportunity to grow, do the most impactful work of your life tackling problems that matter while being happy doing it.

About the Job

• The mission of the role is to own the settlements and reconciliation of cash we have at Quidax. We have a lot of moving parts and a lot of places where money moves from and to. It would be your duty to ensure that everything matches to the last kobo.
• From the banks, we partner with, to our payment service providers, and to our transactions on OTC platforms.
• You have to be able to track, follow, and reconcile all the transactions and present them in a cute and understandable way for the financial controller to review and the management.
• If we have any missing money, you should hunt it down like an eagle and make sure to get us our cash. If we have any overpaid money we have to double-check and give the owner of the money value ASAP.
• The Settlement Analyst will ensure payment channels are funded from time to time and whenever the channel is low on funds, you will reach out to the finance lead for a top-up.
