About the role

At Revolut we are expanding into Colombia, we are in the process of getting our Bank licence, and as part of this you will be a part of the team that will help us design, execute and scale our Operation In Colombia.

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 financial implications from various key strategic decisions and growth opportunities — this is what our financial people do all day long.

As we build out our Bank in Colombia you will also be responsible for managing our Local Reporting, Treasury, Investment and Currency Desk, you will have to build out and lead the team, working closely with our global operations and finance team during an exciting time at Revolut.

We’re looking for a Head of Finance to lead our efforts into becoming a licensed bank in Colombia.
