We are working with a fast-growing, global Specialist Lending Platform at the forefront of trade finance and working capital solutions.

  • Manage operational exceptions end‑to‑end, including funding rejections, disputes, and credit note adjustments, coordinating resolution across vendors, lenders, RMs, Finance, and Legal to protect funding timelines and portfolio quality.
  • Lead KYC and AML onboarding for resellers, vendors, and lenders, ensuring all compliance requirements are met in line with lender and regulatory standards, and maintaining audit‑ready documentation at all times.
  • Operationalise legal documentation including Notices of Assignment, Program Letters, and Legal Opinions, ensuring these are correctly reflected in operational setup and workflows across programs.
  • Produce and maintain robust operational, compliance, and credit‑related reporting, supporting weekly and monthly portfolio reviews and ensuring documentation is always audit‑ready.
  • Identify and drive process improvement initiatives, partnering with the technology team to define, test, and implement automation enhancements via the company’s proprietary platform.
  • Standardise operational processes across markets, balancing the need for consistency with sensitivity to local regulatory requirements — playing a key role in enabling scalable, compliant growth.

Experience Required:

  • Solid hands‑on experience in Operations/Client Services/Account Management in the Financial Services or FinTech space, along with KYC onboarding, AML processes, and compliance controls.
  • Demonstrated experience working with legal documentation related to Accounts Receivable Purchase or trade finance programs, including Notices of Assignment and Program Letters.
  • Proven background in operations, middle office, or trade finance, with a solid grasp of invoice processing, funding mechanics, and exception handling. An understanding of credit analysis, financial statement reviews, and portfolio monitoring would be highly desirable.
  • Highly detail‑oriented with excellent stakeholder coordination skills — comfortable working across multiple internal and external teams simultaneously in a fast‑moving environment.
  • Degree‑educated in Finance, Business, or a related discipline; fluency in both English and French is required, with additional European languages considered a strong advantage.
