About the job

About Verto

At Verto, we are dedicated to transforming global finance and empowering businesses in Emerging Markets to connect with the global economy. Founded by visionary British-Nigerian entrepreneurs Ola Oyetayo and Anthony Oduu, our African heritage gives us a unique perspective on the significant challenges faced by businesses in cross-border payments, including illiquid currencies, exorbitant fees, and sluggish transaction speeds. Our commitment to Africa is unwavering as we strive to close the gap between emerging and developed markets, driving global economic advancement.

What began as a foreign exchange solution for the Nigerian Naira has matured into a leading platform that facilitates the seamless transfer of billions of dollars annually for thousands of businesses. We believe that your business location should not dictate your growth potential. Our aim is to provide equal access to the payment and liquidity solutions that are standard in developed markets.

We are proud to be supported by esteemed investors such as Y-Combinator, Quona, and MEVP. With accolades like the Milken-Motsepe Prize, features on CNBC's list of fastest-growing UK companies, the Deloitte Fast 50, and Sifted’s fastest-growing UK tech companies, we are committed to creating a future where cross-border payments are effortless.

Join us on our journey to reshape global finance.
