Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa Verto Full time R120 000 - R240 000 per year

At Verto, we're passionate about helping businesses in Africa reach the world. What first started as an FX solution for trading Nigerian Naira has now become a market-leading platform, changing the way thousands of businesses transfer money in and out of Africa.

We believe that where you do business shouldn't determine how successful you are or your ability to scale. Millions of companies face long settlement periods, high transaction fees, and liquidity issues when trading with African businesses. We're on a mission to change this by creating equal access to seamless payment and liquidity solutions that are already a given in developed markets.

We're not alone in recognizing the opportunity and the need to solve for emerging markets. Backed by world-class investors, including Y-Combinator, Quona, and MEVP, we power payments for some of the most disruptive start-ups in the world. We've also been recognized by leading publications, including being named 'Fintech Start-up of the Year' at the Fintech Awards London 2022. Each year, we process billions of dollars in payments, helping companies save money, automate processes, and grow—but we're only just getting started.
