About the role

At Revolut, we do Ops differently. Our hyper-talented Operations experts don’t just keep things ticking over. They're given the most complex, hard-to-solve problems in the business. Then they create elegant, scalable solutions that keep pace with our ambitious growth plans. Without our Ops team, we’d be following the herd, not leading the pack — and that’s a place we never want to be 🐑

We're looking for a Strategy & Operations Manager to help us solve the toughest problems in our global fintech. As a Finance Operations Manager, you'll play a pivotal role in optimising finance operations, enhancing control frameworks, and driving efficiency within our finance ecosystem. If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into the nitty-gritty of every area of a business to help our millions of customers worldwide, you might just be the person we need.
