Clobe (Pvt) Ltd builds fintech products for the Sri Lankan market — digital identity, verification and bank onboarding under our AnyBanq product line.
AnyBanq's whole proposition is that a bank receives applications that are complete and already verified. Software does part of that work. The rest is judgement, and that is what we will teach you: how to look at an application and know whether it is genuinely ready to go to a bank.
This is a trainee role. We are hiring for care and attention rather than experience.
What you'll do
- Review submitted applications against their supporting documents — identity, address and whatever else the product requires
- Check that the details entered match the documents exactly
- Confirm supporting documents are present, legible and current
- Flag anything that looks inconsistent, and send applications back with a clear reason
- Escalate anything you're unsure about — early on, that will be a lot, and that is exactly right
- Tell us what keeps going wrong, so we can fix it upstream in the form
What we're looking for
- No prior experience required. If you have worked in bank operations, KYC, insurance or any document-checking role, that is a bonus — not a requirement
- Real attention to detail. This is the one thing we test: shortlisted candidates review sample applications with deliberate mistakes hidden in them
- G.C.E. A/Ls or equivalent
- Sinhala and Tamil alongside English, since applicants will not all write in English
- Discretion. You will see NIC numbers, addresses and income details every day, and you will treat them accordingly
- Willingness to follow a checklist carefully, and to ask when something doesn't look right
We can teach you what a bank needs to see. We cannot teach you to care whether the details are right.
What you'll learn
- How identity documents are verified, and the common ways they are altered
- What banks actually require in an application file, and why
- KYC and customer due diligence fundamentals
- Data protection under the PDPA, and how to handle personal data properly
You will start with supervised reviews and a founder checking your work. As your judgement builds, you take on more of the queue independently. There is a clear path from trainee to owning the review process as the team grows.
What this role is not
You are not making the credit decision. You are not approving anyone for a product. The bank does that, under its own policy. Your job is making sure that when the bank looks at a file, everything in it is accurate and complete.
The setup
- Hybrid — work remotely, with two days a month at our Colombo office (World Trade Centre)
- Structured training and supervised review to start, with a founder reviewing your work
- Salary appropriate to a trainee role, with a review at 6 months as you take on the queue independently
- Background screening, a confidentiality undertaking and PDPA training are part of onboarding — the banks we work with expect it, and so do the people whose data you handle
