Treasury Manager
Location: Lagos
Employment Type: Full-time
Description
- We are looking for a Treasury Manager who understands that treasury is a revenue function & not just a cost or rate-matching centre. This person knows how to source and manage liquidity, reads FX markets, matches rates intelligently, and builds the partnerships that make our pricing sharper and our rails faster.
- You will own ZitraPay's treasury operations end-to-end: liquidity, banking relationships, payment rails, and commercial fintech partnerships. This is a high-ownership role reporting directly to the founder, and the right candidate will have visible impact from day one.
Key Responsibilities
Liquidity & FX Management:
- Source, evaluate, and onboard competitive fiat and stablecoin liquidity providers and OTC desks.
- Manage rate-matching strategy to ensure ZitraPay's pricing remains competitive without eroding margin.
Banking & Payment Infrastructure:
- Establish and deepen cross-border banking relationships with a focus on lower fees, faster settlement, and greater flexibility.
- Identify and onboard new payment rails across priority African markets including Ghana, Senegal, Kenya, The Gambia, and Cameroon.
Commercial & Fintech Partnerships:
- Identify and structure cross-trade partnerships with other fintechs; positioning ZitraPay as a liquidity provider where our pricing and infrastructure creates mutual advantage.
- Hunt new commercial partners systematically; understand their pain points and map ZitraPay's strengths to their needs (e.g, Oil & gas, Multinations, major Pharmaceuticals and some major Stablecoin buyers).
- Maintain a live pipeline of active and prospective LP and commercial partner relationships.
- Support treasury management services for multinational clients seeking FX solutions and liquidity support.
Operations & Reporting:
- Maintain accurate records of all treasury positions, trades, and partner arrangements (i.e trade trackers & payment blotter).
- Produce regular reporting on FX performance, ratios, spread analysis, and Profi & Loss.
Expectations & Requirements
- 2–5 years of experience in FX trading, treasury operations, or a liquidity-focused role within a fintech, OTC desk, or financial institution.
- Demonstrated ability to source and negotiate with liquidity providers — you have existing relationships or know how to build them quickly.
- Strong FX market knowledge with a working understanding of NGN, USD, and at least one other African currency corridor.
- Commercial instinct: you understand the difference between generating revenue through spreads and simply marking up rates.
- Analytically sharp with a hands-on approach to data; comfortable building and maintaining Excel dashboards, rate calculators, and spread/volume trackers from scratch. You don't wait for a system to tell you the numbers; you build the tools that surface them.
- Experience building or managing cross-border banking and payment relationships.
- Comfortable operating in a lean, fast-moving environment where you own the outcome.
- Existing network within the African or diaspora fintech/OTC space is a strong advantage.
- Familiarity with stablecoin liquidity and digital asset rails is a compulsory requirement.

N1,000,000 - N1,500,000 / Month.
