About Lorum

Global payments are not broken. Incentives are.

Clearing has been deprioritized inside balance sheet-driven institutions whose models rely on lending and interest. When liquidity takes priority over settlement, payments slow and certainty drops. The same financial institutions that distort clearing as providers are disadvantaged as users. They are forced into fragmented setups, inconsistent rails, duplicated compliance, and unpredictable timelines.

Stablecoin shortcuts and treasury pooling treat symptoms at the surface, but almost no one is rebuilding the underlying infrastructure in each market.

Rebuilding clearing from the ground up

We are rebuilding clearing as its own specialist function. We act as a clearing and transaction banking partner for regulated institutions, with treasury built into the core so liquidity, settlement, and reconciliation sit in one controlled system.

Our platform unifies global and local licenses, direct central bank clearing, and access to domestic rails. We allow clients to open named customer accounts in every market we operate, collecting funds and paying out through a single network while retaining full ownership of their customer relationships. Market expansion becomes as simple as one correspondent relationship, not hundreds.

Why Lorum

Joining Lorum means contributing to one of the most ambitious clearing infrastructure projects in global finance. You will help shape settlement systems that perform under real regulatory standards and institutional volumes. You will build for regulated institutions that rely on precision, predictable timelines, and regulatory integrity. It is about working across currencies, markets, and supervisory frameworks to deliver reliable, final settlement.

Role Purpose

You will identify, engage and qualify prospective clients across payments, banking, digital assets and treasury, helping build relationships with some of the world's leading financial institutions and fintech companies.

This role is designed for ambitious early-career sales professionals looking to accelerate their progression into enterprise sales while developing deep expertise in global payments, clearing, FX and transaction banking.

In addition to outbound prospecting, you will have the opportunity to attend leading industry conferences, networking events and client meetings globally, generating opportunities and building relationships across the international payments ecosystem.
