Role Overview:
We are looking for a sharp, structured problem-solver to join the Business Assurance team for the Merchant Payments business. This team acts as the internal consulting, audit, and business-assurance arm of the merchant payments business — independently reviewing the commercial logic, cost/P&L impact, compliance, and operational soundness of initiatives across the business, and driving high-value improvement projects.
You will work on a rotating portfolio of diagnostic reviews and value-creation projects: think of it as running mini-consulting engagements inside the business, one after another. This is a high-ownership, high-exposure role for someone early in their career who wants to see the full breadth of a large fintech business and influence senior decisions.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Business Assurance & Diagnostic Reviews
- Independently review the business logic, assumptions, and expected impact of proposed and in-flight projects
- Assess the cost and P&L impact of initiatives and pressure-test whether the economics justify the investment, acting as an objective "checker"
2. Process, Structure & Compliance Reviews
- Run assurance checks on processes and structures, identify process gaps, inefficiencies, and recommend corrective actions
- Track whether recommendations are implemented and whether they deliver the intended effect
3. Project Delivery & Insight
- Own end-to-end delivery of assigned review/improvement projects — scoping, data gathering, analysis, synthesis, and recommendations
- Structure ambiguous problems into clear workplans with minimal supervision
- Produce crisp, executive-ready outputs (decks, memos, dashboards) that drive decisions
4. Stakeholder Management
- Partner with Business, Product, Operations, Compliance, and Tech teams to gather inputs and socialize findings
Requirements:
- Strong analytical and financial acumen — comfortable with P&L logic, unit economics, and building models from scratch
- Structured problem-solving ability and comfort operating in ambiguity with a rotating set of problem types
- Excellent communication and executive presentation skills
Skills & Competencies:
- Advanced proficiency in Excel; working knowledge of SQL and/or Python preferred for handling large datasets
- Ability to independently scope and run analytical projects end-to-end
- High ownership, intellectual honesty, and the maturity to deliver objective findings to senior stakeholders
- Exposure to payments, lending, or fintech businesses is an advantage
