About Fuze
Moving value instantly is possible.
Fuze is a global digital asset infrastructure group building the regulated rails that move stablecoins, digital assets and payments across some of the fastest-growing corridors in the world. Banks, fintechs and enterprises use our APIs to launch compliant digital asset products without building the licensing, custody and compliance stack themselves.
Our platform spans payments and wealth: stablecoin orchestration, cross-border payments with 24/7 settlement, a crypto payment gateway, embedded trading and collateralized lending, and an institutional OTC desk.
We've processed over $20B and we're just getting started. With teams across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Istanbul, Switzerland, Canada, the US, and more to come, we are backed by leading global investors.
Fuze is scaling into one of the defining infrastructure players in digital assets, and this is the moment to join - your call.
Role Overview
Nigeria is one of the largest remittance markets in Africa, yet much of that value still passes through layers of intermediaries before it reaches the recipient, each taking a margin. We want to change how money lands in Nigeria: direct payout relationships, smarter local liquidity, and stablecoin settlement where it genuinely improves price and speed.
You will build Fuze’s payout and liquidity network in Nigeria. You’ll find where the best all-in price for delivering naira sits, secure direct access to it through licensed local partners, and turn it into pricing our global partners can’t get elsewhere.
You report to the Chief Commercial Officer and work closely with Treasury, Operations and Compliance. This is a builder role: you’ll create your own network and pipeline and operate with real autonomy, without a large team around you. Over time, you’ll build and lead a small Nigeria team.
Key Responsibilities:
- Map the market’s payout economics: Build a clear, evidence-based view of how naira is delivered today across banks, fintech and mobile money wallets, licensed International Money Transfer Operators (IMTOs), licensed VASPs and cash-pickup networks, and what each route really costs end to end.
- Build direct payout partnerships: Originate, negotiate and sign direct relationships with partners (banks, fintech wallets, licensed IMTOs, licensed VASPs). Identify natural two-way flows in the market.
- Structure stablecoin settlement: Work with VASPs and OTC desks to settle partners in stablecoins where this reduces pre-funding, shortens settlement or improves the rate.
- Own pricing: Benchmark Fuze’s all-in cost per corridor against the market and own the plan to beat it.
- Land and run partners: Own the handover into onboarding and go-live, and stay accountable for partners that transact reliably on volume, success rate and settlement time, not just partners that are signed.
- Keep it compliant: Work with Compliance and Risk on Travel Rule obligations and Fuze’s own AML standards. We only build what we can run compliantly.
- Represent Fuze: Be Fuze’s presence in Nigeria’s payments, remittance and digital asset community.
What We're Looking For:
- 6+ years in payments, remittance, FX, treasury or digital assets, with significant time in the Nigerian market
- Direct experience on the payout or receiving side, for example at a bank remittance desk, fintech wallet, licensed IMTO, licensed VASP or payout aggregator
- Working knowledge of Nigerian payment rails (NIBSS Instant Payment) and the regulatory frameworks of the Central Bank of Nigeria and SEC Nigeria for remittance and virtual asset service providers
- A strong grasp of FX, treasury and liquidity: pre-funding, settlement cycles, spreads and OTC mechanics
- A track record of personally closing partnership deals involving legal, technical and compliance stakeholders
- A senior network across Nigerian banks, fintech wallets, remittance companies and exchanges
Strong preferences
- Hands-on experience with stablecoin settlement or OTC liquidity in Nigeria
- Experience building a function or market from scratch
- Exposure to the Middle East–Nigeria remittance corridor
Success Metrics
- Direct payout partners live, and aggregator routes replaced
- All-in cost improvement per corridor against the aggregator benchmark
- Share of Nigerian payout volume routed through direct partners
- Reduction in pre-funding requirement and settlement time through stablecoin settlement
