BD Manager, Institutional Payments
Taptap Send
Date: 9 hours ago
City: Dubai
Contract type: Full time
About The Role
Taptap Send is building a new institutional payments business. We move money across 80+ emerging market corridors and are now opening that infrastructure to institutional clients — crypto exchanges, fintechs, MTOs, and corporate treasury teams. This is an early commercial hire into that business.
The Role
You'll own a pipeline of institutional partners from first contact through to live. You'll work closely with trading and ops to structure deals and get clients across the line quickly.
What You'll Do
We’re building the world’s leading cross-border fintech for emerging markets - empowering families, fuelling local economies, and changing how millions access financial services.
Since our launch in 2019, we have transformed how money moves across borders with our operations spanning 6 out of 7 continents and covering both the busiest and most underserved (remittance) corridors. We tapped into a massive shift - from banks to phones - bringing digital finance to places where traditional systems never reached. The next stage of growth will fuel a network of services and products especially designed to make money more accessible to diaspora communities including local cards, and additional savings and payments features.
We’re growing fast, backed by world-class investors, and scaling a product that blends real world impact with cutting edge fintech innovation.
