Treasury Manager (Launch)

Wave Mobile Money

Abidjan, Ivory Coast4 months ago

We're making Africa the first cashless continent. In 2017, over half the population in Sub-Saharan Africa had no bank account. That's for good reason—the fees are too high, the closest branch can be miles away, and nobody takes cards. Without access to financial institutions, people are forced to keep their savings under the mattress. Small business owners rely on lenders who charge extortionate rates. Parents spend hours waiting in line to pay school fees in cash. We're solving this by building financial services that just work: no account fees, instantly available, and accepted everywhere. In places where electricity, water and roads don't always work, you can still send money with Wave. In 2017, we launched a mobile app in Senegal for cash deposit, withdrawal, and peer-to-peer and business payments. Now, we have millions of users across 9 countries and are growing fast. Our goal is to make Africa the first cashless continent and that's where you come in... How you’ll help us achieve it As a Treasury Launcher, you will play a pivotal role in launching, structuring, and stabilising treasury operations across new Wave markets. This is not a steady-state operational role. It is a build-and-transfer position that requires strong execution capabilities, high autonomy, and the ability to operate effectively in early-stage, complex environments. You will be accountable for building treasury operations from the ground up in new markets, designing and implementing banking and funding frameworks, ensuring full regulatory and operational readiness at launch, and transferring ownership to local Treasury Managers once markets reach stability.
