Accounts Officer

There are 2 billion adults worldwide that don’t have a bank account. That’s close to 40% of the world’s adult population. 350 million of these live in Sub-Saharan Africa. They are hardworking, young, connected adults that lack access to the traditional banking system. Fido is changing that. We are building a borderless digital bank so everyone can access financial products like credit, savings, and payments that make life easier and better.

Want to be an early employee of a unique consumer brand? Want to do work that has an impact on society? Join us. We build consumer products powered by a magical cocktail of real-time mission-critical machine-learning models, behavioral psychology, and financial engineering. We promote meritocracy, decide fast and commit, and worship data.
