Job Description

Financial Controller - Payments - Fintech



Excellent opportunity opens for an experienced Financial Controller to join a high-growth London fintech operating in the payments and e-money space. You’ll take ownership of financial control in a complex, high-volume transaction environment, working closely with product and operations while supporting the business through an upcoming transaction. Ideal for someone with strong payments, card, or banking product experience who wants real exposure in a fast-moving, commercially driven firm. You will work closely with C-Suite, and have a direct impact on the business direction.


You will sit close to the business, dealing with real transaction flow, reconciling large volumes of money movement, and supporting a company going through a likely transaction.


What you’ll be doing

  • Own financial control across a payments-led, e-money environment
  • Work closely with external bookkeepers on payroll and core accounting processes
  • Oversee and improve controls around high-volume transaction flows (cards, accounts, interchange)
  • Support month-end, reporting, and audit readiness in a regulated setting
  • Partner with product and operations teams on financial impact of payment flows
  • Play a key role in upcoming corporate activity (sale / M&A)
  • Act as a senior support resource within a lean finance team


What matters

  • Strong financial control background in payments, fintech, or e-money
  • Direct experience with card products, interchange, or bank account-based products
  • Comfortable handling high transaction volumes and reconciliation complexity
  • Experience operating in regulated environments
  • Exposure to M&A / transaction environments
  • Hands-on, detail-focused, but commercially aware
