About Revolut

People deserve more from their money. More visibility, more control, more freedom. And since 2015, Revolut has been on a mission to deliver just that. With an arsenal of awesome products that span spending, saving, travel, transfers, investing, exchanging and more, we've helped 40+ million customers get more from their money. And we're not done yet.

As we continue our lightning-fast growth, two things are essential to continuing our success: our people and our culture. We've been officially certified as a Great Place to Work in recognition of our outstanding employee experience! So far, we have 10,000+ people working around the world, from our great offices or remotely, on our mission. And we're looking for more. We want brilliant people that love building great products, love redefining success, and love turning the complexity of a chaotic world into the simplicity of a beautiful solution.

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 UAE 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.

Sound like a bit of you? Get in touch.
