ClearToken Depository is building a settlement service for the digital markets, offering the benefits of traditional market structure concepts of centralised settlement for emerging digital assets.

This role is integral to ensuring accurate and timely processing of settlement instructions, reconciliation of positions and cash movements, and managing communication with Trade Sources and reporting feeds, Venues, Participants, Banks, and Custodians.

The ideal candidate will bring strong operational expertise from the financial services sector, with a solid understanding of back-office systems, settlement workflows, and asset servicing—preferably including exposure to blockchain-based or tokenized asset infrastructure.
