Job description

Company Description

Fortress Core Connect ('Fortress Core') emerged from recognizing a critical gap in Africa's institutional trading landscape: the need for a reliable connector between local regulated entities and global financial infrastructure.

We enable financial institutions across Africa to access institutional-grade trading technology and premium liquidity while maintaining FSCA compliance. Our distinctive intermediary model means we never execute trades, hold client funds, or act as an ODP Provider (Over-the-Counter Derivative Provider).

Instead, we exclusively connect regulated institutional clients with top-tier liquidity providers and well-established technology vendors.

Our comprehensive offering includes liquidity solutions from our exclusive ODP-regulated partner ATFX Connect, white-label trading systems, regulatory guidance, and institutional risk management solutions.

Role Description

We're looking for a proactive and people-focused Project Manager Scrum Master to guide our agile teams and help us deliver high-quality products faster.

You will facilitate daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives, remove obstacles, and foster a culture of continuous improvement.

If you're passionate about Agile principles and love helping teams thrive, we'd love to meet you.

Key Responsibilities

• Support the Product Owner in maintaining a healthy product backlog
• Remove team impediments and foster collaboration
• Promote Agile best practices and team accountability
• Act as the intermediary between B2B Client's operational team and Fortress Core

Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience as a Scrum Master
• Strong organizational and multitasking abilities
• Certification in Project Management or related field
