- You’ll be trusted to take initiative, act with care and urgency, and contribute ideas to improve how we work. We move fast but always with quality and compliance at the core
- You'll join a close-knit team where collaboration and reliability are key — we support each other, share knowledge, and celebrate progress. If you’re proactive, curious, and eager to grow in a dynamic fintech environment, you’ll fit right in

Application process

Our interviews are conversational, so come with questions and be curious. In general, you can expect the interview process to look a bit like this, (following an initial chat with one of our Talent team):
- First stage – 45 mins competencies-based and technical skills interview with the hiring manager
- Second stage – 30 mins competency-based interview linked to our operating principles and ways of working
- ⏳ We’ll only close this role once we have enough applications for the next stage. Please submit your application as soon as possible to make sure you don’t miss out and you should expect to hear back from us within one to two weeks of applying
