Client profile

A fast-growing Nigerian digital banking and payments business.

Challenge

Eighty operations, service and support roles were needed inside one month. In financial services, hiring speed cannot come at the cost of insider risk, and the client had a strict zero-tolerance position on unverified hires.

Avant Tech Nigeria response

  • Parallel sourcing pods by role family, with a shared scorecard per family
  • Enhanced screening for cash-handling and customer-data roles
  • Identity, NYSC, guarantor, employment history and credential checks completed before offer
  • Continuous status reporting to the client's HR and risk teams

Outcome

  • All 80 roles filled within 28 days
  • No insider fraud incidents attributable to the cohort
  • Verification pack held on file for every hire, supporting internal audit
