This is a hybrid role 4days/week in our London office in Fitzrovia

About Lorum

Global payments are not broken. Incentives are. Clearing has been deprioritised 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 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 join a fast-growing commercial team, owning the full sales cycle for mid-market and enterprise clients in cross-border payments and clearing. 

You will self-source deals, work consultatively with sophisticated buyers, and shape how Lorum sells to a specialist audience, whether that's institutional crypto firms and digital asset infrastructure providers (stablecoins, custody, treasury), PSPs, EMIs, or FX/remittance businesses (correspondent banking, virtual accounts, cross-border flows), banks and regulated FIs navigating multi-stakeholder cycles, or platforms such as OTAs, marketplaces, and payroll or HR-tech companies managing collections, supplier payouts, and multi-currency treasury.

• Relationship Building: Cultivate strong relationships with key decision-makers and stakeholders across client organizations.

• Ownership of accounts: Own the handover from sales to implementation and customer success team.

• Account Management: Ensure that the clients you close successfully go live with Lorum and start generating volumes.

• Cross-functional Collaboration: Collaborate with internal teams (product, compliance, operations) to provide market feedback, influence roadmap priorities, and enhance Lorum’’s client offering.
