Job Description

FP&A Manager

Wise is a global technology company, building the best way to move and manage the world's money.

Min fees. Max ease. Full speed.

• Whether people and businesses are sending money to another country, spending abroad, or making and receiving international payments, Wise is on a mission to make their lives easier and save them money.
• As part of our team, you will be helping us create an entirely new network for the world's money.
• For everyone, everywhere.
• More about our mission and what we offer.
• Due to the continued and rapid growth of Wise, we're on the hunt for experienced Finance professionals to join our FP&A team in London. You'll be part of the team that helps pilot the rocket ship.
• This is an individual contributor role with end-to-end ownership of defined FP&A workstreams supporting specific business areas. You'll operate with significant autonomy, partner with senior stakeholders and work with FP&A leads when decisions have wider implications across Wise.

Your mission:

• You'll be a trusted finance partner to senior stakeholders, combining financial and operational insight to help them understand performance, key drivers and trade-offs, and make better decisions.
• You'll lead planning and forecasting for your areas, challenging assumptions, tracking performance and contributing to longer-term plans.
• You'll build scalable models and reporting for the areas you support, using relevant metrics and scenarios to make risks and opportunities clear.
• You'll assess investments, pricing, growth and efficiency initiatives through robust business cases, ROI and payback analysis, providing recommendations that help stakeholders prioritise resources.
• You'll lead workstreams within complex cross-functional projects and improve FP&A processes, data quality and reporting in the areas you support, sharing best practice across Finance.

This role will give you the opportunity to:

• Make a visible impact by helping Wise grow sustainably and supporting decisions that advance our mission of lowering prices for customers.
• Own your own path to success, with the autonomy to make decisions, tackle varied problems and improve how we work.
• Learn and grow. There's a lot to be done, and you'll work on varied challenges across Finance and the wider business.

Qualifications

A bit about you:

• You're excited by Wise's mission and motivated by the role Finance can play in delivering it.
• You have proven experience in FP&A, commercial finance, strategic finance or finance business partnering, ideally in a complex or fast-growing organisation.
• You have owned planning, forecasting, performance analysis or management reporting processes and understand how the P&L, cash flow and operational drivers connect.
• You have hands-on experience building structured financial models, working with large or imperfect datasets and using scenarios and sensitivities to support decisions.
• You have partnered with senior non-finance stakeholders, challenged assumptions and turned analysis into clear recommendations, becoming a trusted advisor.
• You have a professional finance qualification such as ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent.

Skills:

• You're analytical and structured, enjoy digging into data and can cut through complexity to identify what matters.
• You communicate clearly and strategically, build trust and can bring different perspectives together.
• You're hands-on and delivery-focused, able to manage competing priorities and move work forward with limited guidance across teams and time zones.
• You're humble, curious and comfortable with ambiguity, while willing to challenge assumptions and be direct when needed.

Bonus points for:

• Experience in fintech, payments, technology, marketplaces or another high-growth environment, particularly across different functions, geographies or business models.
• A working knowledge of planning tools such as Anaplan or Planful, BI tools, SQL, automation or AI-enabled finance workflows.
• Experience reviewing the work of analysts or mentoring colleagues, whether or not you have formally managed a team.
