About the role

We’re preparing for upcoming payment regulation in Europe and we’re looking for a Finance Controls Manager to help us keep up to date with the upcoming changes.

In this role you’ll own the financial control environment end to end: designing, implementing, and running it in practice, not just on paper. If you’d rather build than inherit, this is a rare opportunity to shape how financial controls operate at scale.

You will own designing control activities, reviewing relevant policies, and ensuring controls are genuinely performed across the organisation, not just documented. Working within the framework set by the second-line risk team, you’ll act as the finance subject matter expert within the entity, with deep independence and minimal day-to-day supervision.

This is a hands-on role. You’ll be coordinating work across accounting, controlling, reporting, and FP&A teams, provide operational cover when needed, and own the formal sign-off of financial reports at month-end close. You’ll also oversee outsourced finance functions from Bolt Group’s central teams, holding providers to the same control and regulatory standards as in-house work.

Main tasks and responsibilities

• Design, document, and run the financial control activities of the entity, preparing and periodically reviewing the policies and procedures that underpin them.
• Implement and embed controls across the organisation, working with the second-line risk team to ensure alignment with the overarching framework.
• Proactively identify control and compliance gaps before they escalate, and ensure finance-owned deficiencies are remediated within agreed timelines.
• Maintain regulatory capital monitoring, develop and validate stress testing models, and own regulatory reporting submitted on time and free of material errors.
• Provide hands-on operational cover across accounting, controlling, and FP&A functions, performing reconciliations and controlling procedures directly and owning the formal sign-off of financial reports at month-end close.
• Oversee outsourced finance functions, including accounting, controlling, reporting, tax, and FP&A, holding providers accountable to the same control and regulatory standards as in-house work.

About you

• You have proven experience designing and operating internal control frameworks in a regulated financial services environment.
• You have strong analytical and structured thinking, with the ability to break down complex regulatory or operational situations, identify root causes, and propose practical solutions.
• You are comfortable reading and interpreting legal and regulatory documents and navigating complex systems and processes independently.
• You have a degree in Finance, Accounting, or Business Administration (Bachelor’s or Master’s).
• You have knowledge of financial regulations such as PSD2, PSD3, or DORA is a plus.
• You have experience working with financial regulators in Europe, and the ability to query and interpret financial datasets independently, are a plus.

Why you’ll love it here:

• Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.
• Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as we  succeeds, so do you.
• Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.
• Celebrate 5 years with a 1-month paid sabbatical to recharge.
• Connect with colleagues at annual company events and smaller team gatherings.
• Balance flexibility and in-person collaboration with our hybrid model, including at least 12 monthly in-office days.
