About the role

The Finance team is an integral part of any business. At Revolut, we take that one step further. Our global financial super app 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.

We are looking for a Head of Finance to join our Gibraltar team. This role will have exposure to own the general ledger, manage the implementation of robust financial controls and the development of scalable accounting automation. If you have a strong track record in an Audit or Financial Controller role, have a genuine interest in accounting automation, and want the opportunity to push the limit of what you are capable of, then we want to know.
