It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distil it into a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:You'll own Mews' finance data world: the pipelines, platforms and practices that turn complex operational, RevOps, Financial Services, billing and core finance data into reliable, auditable insight teams can act on. As Mews' financial and regulatory reporting demands grow more complex, this role exists to turn a stretched, manual-heavy data backbone into a scalable, well-governed platform. It's a chance to build the finance data foundation for a fast-growing, increasingly regulated fintech business from a position of real technical and strategic ownership.You'll head up and grow the Finance & Regulatory Data team across Europe, and own the strategy, architecture and roadmap for Mews' finance and regulatory data platform.Finance and regulatory reporting standards are getting more demanding as Mews scales, and much of today's finance data work still leans on manual, spreadsheet-based processes.
