What you'll be doing

This is an individual contributor role sitting at the intersection of financial rigour and strategic thinking. You'll be the financial voice on strategic decisions — evaluating new market entries, stress-testing unit economics, and building the business case for commercial initiatives across our portfolio.

This is not a financial control or reporting role. We want someone who moves fluidly between financial modelling and strategic dialogue — challenging assumptions, spotting what the numbers are really saying, and translating complex analysis into clear recommendations for senior leadership.

01

Strategic & commercial analysis

Lead financial analysis underpinning key strategic decisions — new market entries, product launches, pricing strategy, and commercial partnerships. Build and maintain robust financial models that stress-test assumptions and support executive decision-making.

02

Market & product economics

Evaluate product-level profitability across lending, cards, savings, BNPL, and payments. Analyse customer acquisition costs, lifetime value, and payback periods — and own the financial narrative for a designated market end-to-end.

03

Cross-functional collaboration

Partner with local finance teams, product managers, and the CFO to align modelling with on-the-ground realities. Challenge assumptions constructively and support fundraising efforts and investor reporting with relevant financial analysis.

Who you'll work with

You'll work directly with the Finance team and CFO — the people driving financial strategy across Fintech Farm's global markets.

Our hiring process

Five stages. We keep it straightforward and move quickly.

1
Recruiter screen
30 min · Tom Pearson, Head of Talent
A conversation to understand your background, what you're looking for, and to give you a fuller picture of Fintech Farm — the business, the role, and what success looks like here.
2
Technical interview
60 min · Pavel Taranin, Commercial Finance
Two halves: 30 minutes discussing your experience and approach to financial analysis, followed by 30 minutes working through a live financial exercise together. We want to see how you think and how you handle numbers in real time.
3
Case study
Take-home · Presented back to Pavel Taranin · 60 min
After the technical interview, you'll receive a set of financial data to model and answer queries on in your own time. You'll then present your findings back to Pavel in a 60-minute session — walk us through your modelling, your assumptions, and your conclusions.
4
Interview with CFO
30 min · Roman Merkulov, CFO
An introduction to how Roman works and how you would collaborate together. Less about testing, more about understanding the strategic agenda, how the finance function operates at Fintech Farm, and whether this is the right environment for you.
5
Founder interview
60 min · One of our Co-Founders
A conversation with one of our founders to understand how you work and make sure Fintech Farm is the right fit — for you as much as for us. Less about testing, more about a genuine conversation on what drives you and how you operate.
