About Revolut

People deserve more from their money. More visibility, more control, and more freedom. Since 2015, Revolut has been on a mission to deliver just that. Our powerhouse of products — including spending, saving, investing, exchanging, travelling, and more — help our 45+ million customers get more from their money every day.

As we continue our lightning-fast growth,‌ 2 things are essential to our success: our people and our culture. In recognition of our outstanding employee experience, we've been certified as a Great Place to Work™. So far, we have 10,000+ people working around the world, from our offices and remotely, to help us achieve our mission. And we're looking for more brilliant people. People who love building great products, redefining success, and turning the complexity of a chaotic world into the simplicity of a beautiful solution.

About the role

The Finance team is an integral part of any business. At Revolut, we take that one step further. Our global financial fintech would be lost without them. They’re more than just an important part of the business — they’re our backbone

Supporting all areas of the company and assessing financial implications from various key strategic decisions and growth opportunities — this is what our financial people do all day long.

Reporting to the CFO, we're looking for a Financial Modeller experienced in financial model design, data structuring, and data analysis to join the Strategic Finance team.

Strategic Finance at Revolut is data-driven to the extreme — our forecasts must be granular, accurate, and justifiable using OLAP cubes and SQL databases, as opposed to Excel. If you're motivated by learning new skills, we'll teach you!

Up for the challenge? Let's get in touch 🚀

What you’ll be doing

  • Leading strategic and financial planning processes (monthly reviews, forecasts, annual budget, etc.), assisting with decision-making on resource allocation and prioritisation
  • Building and owning financial forecast models, including scenario and in-depth ad hoc analysis
  • Providing financial insights through management reporting
  • Developing frameworks to gain insights into revenue and margins across countries, customer segments, and products compared to other regions
  • Developing business cases to identify, drive, and measure growth and profitability initiatives, including setting pricing, improving margins, and assessing new products and regions
  • Using best-practise techniques to ensure accurate and robust financial forecasts
  • Working closely across departments, including Accounting, Data, Treasury, and Risk, to ensure consistency in our work
  • Improving processes to be more robust, accurate, and efficient

What you'll need

  • 5–7 years of experience in investment banking, private equity, or strategy consulting at a top-tier company
  • Impeccable quantitative and technical skills, including complex financial modelling and data analysis, using tools such as SQL, MS Excel, and/or Python
  • Robust working knowledge of accounting and financial reporting standards
  • A track record of delivering results in a cross-functional, high-growth, and fast-paced environment
  • A degree in finance or economics from a top university
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills to make a good business case and convince people to help you execute it

Nice to have

  • Experience in a similar role (Finance & Strategy, FP&A, Strategic Finance, etc.) in a fast-growing fintech or tech start-up
  • A CA, CFA, or other relevant industry certification
  • An MBA from a top-tier degree

Building a global financial super app isn’t enough. Our Revoluters are a priority, and that’s why in 2021 we launched our inaugural D&I Framework, designed to help us thrive and grow everyday. We're not just doing this because it's the right thing to do. We’re doing it because we know that seeking out diverse talent and creating an inclusive workplace is the way to create exceptional, innovative products and services for our customers. That’s why we encourage applications from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences to join this multicultural, hard-working team.
