Reconciliation Officer

About Salmon

Salmon Bank (Rural Bank) Inc., the banking arm of Salmon Group Ltd., is a technology-driven challenger bank in the Philippines operating under a BSP license. We combine the trust of a licensed institution with the speed and convenience of a modern financial product. Work within regulated financial infrastructure, where product, risk, compliance, operations, technology, and customer experience are closely connected.

About the role
Salmon Bank is growing its card business, and we are building a dedicated card reconciliation team. You will make sure every card transaction is accounted for and every discrepancy is explained and closed. The bank is a direct Visa member and works with Mastercard through third-party processors, so you will work across both models. You will work closely with the card technology team, Finance, client support, and external partners. This is an operations role.

• Reconcile balances and positions with service partners and processors, daily or monthly depending on the account.

• Investigate and resolve discrepancies end to end with the card technology team and partners. Raise tickets under the set process, document root causes, and agree corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

• Maintain reconciliation evidence and control logs, and support regulatory and internal audits.

• Help launch new card products by setting up reconciliation rules, reports, and controls.

• Keep the plastic card stock register and place replenishment orders with the card vendor.
