Role
Who you are

- Sweep account execution & monitoring: help prepare client payments, consolidate balances across payment providers, and support cash-flow monitoring
- Transaction validation: analyze transactions and cash movements to ensure accuracy and completeness
- Customer validation & operational support: support customer-related operations and validation processes (e.g. invoice validations, data quality)
- Reporting & analysis: help prepare financial reports and presentations for internal stakeholders, shareholders, partners, and investors; build client/portfolio performance reporting and projections

- Work closely with senior leadership and gain broad exposure across Finance, Operations, and Risk
- Real ownership and hands-on learning: in a small team environment your work will directly impact daily operations and scale-up readiness
- Collaborative, international team in a growing fintech environment
Our take
Vane backs up digital businesses with non-dilutive capital, by generating working or growth capital from receivables or future revenues. It's particularly focused on fast-growth tech and media companies, for whom this kind of funding can make or break their early development - especially if it means they can avoid ceding stakes in their own company.
Astutely, given this sector focus, its financial products are supported across some of the fastest-growing tech hubs worldwide, including Europe, the US, Australia, and Israel. Their expansion focus is, however, predominantly on the US, where creative and agile financing solutions are increasingly being turned to by founders in need of cash and expertise.
With its eyes on creating more innovative financial products, and the tech boom increasing demand for innovative new financing models, Vane looks set to continue meeting a key industry demand.
