Finance Manager

Attractive Salary

An exciting new product offering in fully Regulated Markets is about to go live with industry veterans and they are looking to hire a Finance Manager. This is a Malta based, non -office working role. Why this role is different:You will run finance operations on a platform we have built ourselves. Every transaction, every processor and supplier settlement, every fee and every bank movement lands in the same data warehouse, and the engineering team that built it sits next to you and builds what you specify. Instead of reconciling by hand, you design the reconciliations and controls that run every night, and you spend your time on the exceptions and the decisions rather than the matching. You are joining as our first finance operations hire, with a clear path to Head of Finance as we add markets, processors and payment methods. This is a build-the-function role, not a maintain-the-function role. What you'll do ? Own the daily cash position across operating, segregated and processor accounts, and confirm that segregated funds cover player balances under our Player Funds Protection Policy. ? Manage the payment processor relationships day to day, and keep processor balances at the level we need. ? Make the weekly payment to iGaming Ontario and track the operator share back into our accounts. ? Reconcile processor settlements and fees to the wallet ledger at transaction level, and work exceptions. ? Reconcile game supplier and platform fees to our own game data before they are paid. ? Run the supplier payment cycle: approve invoices against the reconciliations, keep payment approvals and bank signatory controls in place, and own the bank relationships. ? Track every gap between money owed and money received: settlement timing, rolling reserves, in-transit deposits, and anything else that leaves a gap. ? Work the chargeback, dispute and refund queue, and reconcile the resulting debits. ? Prepare the monthly player-funds reconciliation the policy requires, ledger to bank to processor reports. ? Run the withdrawal review queue: large payouts, holds pending verification, and manual approvals. What you'll bring ? 5+ years in finance, with at least 2 running treasury, finance or payment operations day to day in online gaming, payments, or another regulated financial services environment. ? Direct experience with payment processors: settlement files, rolling reserves, chargebacks, fee reconciliation and term negotiation. ? A regulated background where customer money is segregated. ? Genuine interest in using automation and AI to do this job better. You don't need to write code, but you should want to design systems rather than operate manually. ? Based in Malta for remote working ideally. Nice to have: ? CPA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent designation. ? Experience being the first finance hire or standing up a treasury function from scratch. ? Interac, Canadian EFT or other North American payment rails. ? Exposure to Ontario (AGCO/iGO), MGA or UKGC funds-protection requirements. An excellent salary is on offer for this hire.
