  • Partner with Operations on the day-to-day delivery of business-as-usual payment tasks, including payment preparation, review, release, exception management, and escalation.
  • Work with client-facing teams to support payment-related inquiries, provide guidance on US banking requirements, and help resolve operational issues in a timely manner.
  • Follow and enforce the applicable payment control framework, including maker/checker controls, segregation of duties, approval evidence, audit trail requirements, and escalation procedures.

  • Excellent attention to detail, sound judgment, and the ability to manage deadlines in a time-sensitive payment environment.
  • Professional interpersonal skills are required to build effective working relationships with colleagues, client-facing teams, banks, and broader business contacts.

Training will be provided on internal procedures, technical requirements, and banking systems used by the team.
