تفاصيل الوظيفة

Africa is on the cusp of an economic revolution. While Internet- and banking-penetration have come late to Africa, a youth-driven tidal wave of change is sweeping across the continent. As a result, both global businesses and local champions are in a race to unlock its potential. In partnership with Rapyd, the fastest growing Fintech-as-a-Service platform and Multichoice, the largest entertainment platform on the African continent, we are building the payments platform that is capable of meeting the ambitions of the next generation.

We are looking for dynamic, impactful, thoughtful and *hands-on* leaders to build and deliver both the team and the integrated payment network to scale our network and platform across Africa.
