About The Role

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

Internal accounting? That’s a good start. Supporting all areas of the company, and assessing the financial implications of various key strategic decisions and growth opportunities — this is what our financial people do all day long.

We're looking for a Lead Group Financial Controller who'll report to the Head of Financial Control. You'll lead the Client Flows team and oversee our retail and business product accounting, including card, credit, crypto, insurance, lifestyle, and rewards.

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

• Helping to digitise and automate our accounting, reconciliation, and control processes while developing our accounting and reconciliation platforms
• Supporting the group and legal entity audits, along with other regulatory deliverables
• Collaborating with various teams on the launch of new products and markets, providing accounting advice and implementation support
