Ambition has no passport. That belief is why LemFi exists. We're the financial engine for people the world wasn't built to serve, the millions who move countries to build something better and find the financial system hasn't caught up with them yet. We started with remittances: the money people send home to the people they love. Now we run multi-currency accounts, Savings, eSIMs and Credit. Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.
LemFi's Foundations tribe is the platform backbone every product team relies on. We own onboarding and identity (KYC end-to-end), engagement systems (rewards, CRM tooling, Lemfi cash), and the internal SDKs and architectural standards that let other squads move fast without reinventing the wheel. If it touches how a customer gets onto the platform or how teams build reliably on top of it, it runs through us.
We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who is at home in Go, cares deeply about building things that last, and has the ownership instinct to drive a system from design to production with minimal hand-holding. You will be a key technical voice in the tribe - setting standards, shipping real product, and enabling the rest of engineering to move faster because of the work you do.
Own and evolve our core identity and onboarding services - KYC flows, verification orchestration and the data contracts that downstream systems depend on.
Build and maintain internal SDKs and shared libraries that abstract platform concerns (auth, identity, caching, eventing) so product teams can move without friction.
Define and champion cross-platform architectural standards, making opinionated decisions about service design, API contracts and data consistency that the wider engineering org follows.
Drive engagement platform capabilities - rewards logic, CRM integrations and Lemfi cash - from spec to production, using AI-assisted development tooling to compress iteration cycles without sacrificing correctness.
Partner closely with platform and infrastructure teams to raise the reliability and observability bar across Foundations-owned services.
Tackle the hard, ambiguous problems - new country launches, regulatory identity requirements, scaling events - and turn them into clean, well-documented solutions.
Contribute to a high-ownership engineering culture: code reviews, architectural reviews, incident response and mentoring are part of the job, not extras.
At least five years of backend engineering experience with Go as your primary language in a production environment.
A track record of building and scaling distributed systems - you have seen things break at scale and know how to design so they do not.
Experience working on or closely with platform or enablement teams: shared libraries, internal tooling, developer experience or API gateways.
Comfortable with the full lifecycle - design, build, operate, improve - with evidence of genuine end-to-end ownership rather than handing off to other teams.
Practical, demonstrable use of AI development tools in your daily engineering workflow; you validate AI output rather than blindly accepting it.
Strong opinions about system design, API contracts and service boundaries, backed by real examples you can walk us through.
Exposure to fintech, payments or identity/KYC systems.
Experience building SDKs or developer-facing platform services consumed by other engineering teams.
Prior work in a high-growth startup or scale-up (roughly 50-500 people) where you had to set standards, not just follow them.
Your work here puts money back into families' pockets. That's the reward, and the weight of it. You'll take on some of the hardest problems in finance alongside people who do their best work when the stakes are real. We move fast and we expect a lot, because our customers can't afford for us to do otherwise. In return you get room to own real problems, global impact you can see, and a team that won't slow you down.
Bring grit and ownership and there's a place for them here. Ambition belongs here, come and show us yours.

Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.
As Senior Technical Accountant, reporting to the Head of Financial Control and Reporting, you will be LemFi's go-to authority on how we account for what we do. You will own the Group accounting policy manual, write the technical papers on every key judgement area, get ahead of new products before they launch, and be the main contact for auditors on complex technical questions.
You will partner closely with Global Finance Operations and Reconciliation and Strategic Finance, ensuring that US GAAP consolidated accounts and local entity statutory accounts are accurate from revenue recognition to balance sheet classification. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys hard accounting questions and explains the answers clearly. The role is based in London or Dublin, with dedicated time in either hub.
Own the Group accounting policy manual across US GAAP, FRS 102 and local frameworks, keeping it current as standards and the business evolve.
Write clear, defensible technical papers covering key judgement areas: revenue recognition on fees and FX, credit losses (CECL and IFRS 9), safeguarded customer funds and share-based payments.
Get ahead of new products - assess accounting treatment for new products, markets, partnerships and funding facilities before launch, working with Product, Legal, Tax and Treasury.
Lead on technical audit areas: be the auditors' main contact on judgement areas, close out findings related to accounting treatment, and ensure no material audit adjustments in your areas.
Set the rules for transaction accounting - define how fees, FX, chargebacks, settlements and processor flows are recorded, and work with Finance Transformation to build those rules into NetSuite posting logic and automated controls.
Bridge the frameworks: maintain the US GAAP to statutory reconciliation, support the consolidation with the Financial Reporting and Consolidation Manager, and keep intercompany recharges consistent across the Group.
Run a prioritised technical accounting log, reviewed monthly with the Financial Control and Finance Operations leads, so nothing falls through the cracks.
ACA, ACCA, CPA or equivalent qualification, with 7 or more years of post-qualification experience.
A background in Big 4 (or similar) audit, ideally in financial services, or in a technical accounting team in-house.
Direct experience in a remittance, payments, e-money or similarly regulated financial services business - as an auditor or in-house.
Strong technical knowledge of US GAAP, and solid working knowledge of FRS 102 or IFRS.
Experience with credit loss accounting under CECL or IFRS 9.
Clear, concise technical writing and the confidence to defend a position with auditors and senior stakeholders.
A hands-on approach: as comfortable posting a complex journal as writing the policy paper that justifies it.
Experience in US GAAP consolidation for a multi-entity international group.
Experience designing accounting rules for ERP or automation projects, ideally in NetSuite.
Exposure to share-based payments, debt facilities or equity fundraising accounting.

LemFi is expanding fast, and Pakistan is one of the most important diaspora corridors we are building for. This role sits at the centre of that ambition. You will own growth outcomes end to end for your market, acting as both strategist and hands-on operator, embedded in the community we serve, travelling across the UK to show up where it matters, and pulling every lever from grassroots events to data-led campaign optimisation.
You will work closely with Growth, Marketing, Product, and Operations, and you will be the loudest internal voice for the user. If LemFi's product, messaging, or positioning is not landing with your communities, you will be the first to know and the first to fix it. This is a role for someone who owns outcomes, not activities, and who finds energy in ambiguity rather than being slowed down by it.
Own user acquisition targets for Pakistan end to end - online and offline - and be accountable for the numbers, not just the effort.
Build and execute acquisition strategies tailored to the Pakistani community, using data and insight to optimise against KPIs and cut what is not working fast.
Lead community-driven initiatives - events, meetups, forums - that build genuine trust and advocacy for LemFi, not just brand awareness for its own sake.
Identify, negotiate, and manage partnerships with organisations and businesses that move the needle on user growth, ensuring every partnership delivers measurable value.
Conduct ongoing market research to understand what your users actually need, and turn those insights into clear, actionable recommendations for Product and Marketing.
Serve as the internal voice of the user - represent community perspectives in decisions about features, messaging, and positioning, and push back when LemFi gets it wrong.
Use AI tools to streamline research, content, and reporting so more of your time goes to high-impact work in the field and less to admin.
Proven track record in growth, sales, or marketing in a fast-paced environment, with clear evidence of hitting ambitious targets.
Strong analytical skills - you read data, spot what it is telling you, and adjust your approach without waiting to be asked.
Strong cultural awareness and understanding of the Pakistani diaspora community in the UK, with the ability to build authentic trust with diverse stakeholders.
Demonstrable experience leading community engagement, including events, partnerships, grassroots activations, with a track record of delivering tangible outcomes
Established relationships and networks within Pakistani diaspora organisations, community groups and stakeholder networks in the UK
Excellent communicator who can influence partners, community leaders, and internal teams with equal confidence.
Self-directed and comfortable operating with ambiguity - you do not need a detailed playbook to make progress.
Willing to travel regularly across the UK, including occasional weekends, to represent LemFi where our communities are.
Experience working in or with remittance, fintech, or financial services products.
Proficiency in Urdu, Punjabi, or another language commonly spoken within the Pakistani diaspora community in the UK.

LemFi is building the financial infrastructure for people the world wasn't built to serve - cross-border payments, multi-currency accounts, savings, credit, and eSIMs across 21 countries and growing. Security is not a checkbox here; it is a core part of how we earn trust with customers, regulators, and partners in some of the most scrutinised payment corridors in the world.
This role sits at the intersection of security engineering, operations, and compliance. You will monitor and respond to real threats, extend our DLP and identity controls, run vulnerability management, and translate audit requirements (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, DORA) into working technical controls. One day you might be triaging a researcher submission through our Bug Bounty programme; the next you are scripting an automated compliance check or briefing a board-level vulnerability report. If you want to own a broad, meaningful security remit at a fast-scaling fintech rather than a narrow lane at a large bank, this is the role.
Monitor, triage, and respond to security alerts and incidents across cloud, endpoint, and SaaS environments - keeping detection tooling sharp and well-tuned.
Own and extend our Data Loss Prevention controls: policy tuning, coverage gap analysis, and coordinating endpoint rollout across the business.
Manage device compliance and identity workflows via MDM platforms, including scripting for group management, provisioning, and reporting through REST APIs.
Run vulnerability scanning and remediation tracking, and contribute to board-level reporting that gives leadership a clear, honest picture of risk.
Translate SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and DORA requirements into working technical controls, evidence collection processes, and automated compliance checks - and support external auditor engagements directly.
Operate LemFi's Bug Bounty and Responsible Disclosure programme: triage researcher submissions and coordinate remediation with engineering teams.
Build scripts and lightweight tools to cut manual security operations work, improve audit evidence quality, and use AI to accelerate wherever it adds genuine value.
2 to 5 years in a security engineering, security operations, or equivalent hands-on technical security role, ideally in fintech, payments, or another regulated industry.
Practical experience across at least some of: cloud security (AWS, Azure, or GCP), endpoint and MDM tooling, DLP platforms, identity and access management, and SIEM or alerting tools.
Scripting ability sufficient to automate workflows and integrate with REST APIs - you write the script, you don't just find it on Stack Overflow.
Working knowledge of at least one major compliance framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, or DORA); direct audit-support experience is a strong plus.
A clear written communicator who can produce control narratives, incident summaries, and stakeholder-facing documentation that non-technical people actually understand.
Comfortable with ambiguity and able to shift between hands-on engineering work and compliance or documentation in the same week without losing momentum.
Experience operating or running a Bug Bounty or Vulnerability Disclosure programme.
Exposure to building or contributing to a Security Trust Centre or external-facing security documentation.
Familiarity with DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) requirements in a practical, implementation context.

About the role
As the Senior Growth Manager for the France-Morocco corridor, you'll drive LemFi's expansion within the Moroccan diaspora in one of our most critical markets. While the primary focus of your community-building will be in France, we are open to candidates based in France, the UK, or other European countries where LemFi currently operates.
This is a growth role that requires you to be comfortable traveling to key diaspora hubs to build a physical community presence and drive high-leverage organic growth. You will direct influencer negotiations, manage external agencies and key community leaders, and execute grassroots field marketing.
You'll spend 3 to 5 days every few weeks in a new city (primarily across France or other key European hubs), representing LemFi at events, building partnerships, rigorously tracking campaign performance, and driving user acquisition. You're embedded in the communities we serve, acting as both a strategist and a ground-level operator. You will work across paid channels, organic strategy, and local product teams to drive massive user acquisition in this market, while serving as the voice of the user.
What you'll build and own
Travel across France (and potentially other key European markets) 3 to 5 days every few weeks, establishing an on-the-ground presence in key cities. Attend community events, build and expand LemFi's community network with local Moroccan leaders and organizations, and grow relationships that build deep trust.
Develop and execute comprehensive user acquisition strategies tailored for the Moroccan diaspora communities in France and Europe. Own growth targets for assigned markets and optimize based on data and insights.
Source, negotiate directly with, and manage France/Morocco-focused influencers, community leaders, and external agencies to drive scalable organic growth.
Lead community-driven initiatives to build trust, awareness, and advocacy, and participate in local events, meetups, and forums. Build and maintain relationships with community leaders and grassroots partners, implementing tracking mechanisms for the exact customer acquisition cost of your activities.

As UK Entity Controller, reporting to the Head of Financial Control and Reporting, you will own the numbers for our largest and most regulated group of entities: an FCA-authorised e-money institution, a payment institution and our growing consumer credit business. You will lead a small team, run a close the business can rely on every month, and build credit accounting that scales as lending grows.
This is a role for a senior controller who genuinely likes ownership. LemFi moves fast, our product surface is expanding and the regulatory bar is high. You will help shape a finance function that is lean, well-controlled and built to last - and you will leave clear fingerprints on how we do things.
Own the UK close - deliver an accurate monthly, quarterly and year-end close for every UK entity on the Group timetable, with every material balance substantiated and independently reviewed.
Prepare and file FRS 102 statutory accounts on time, act as the auditors' first point of contact for the UK, and track every audit finding and management letter point through to resolution with clear owners and dates.
Build and own credit accounting for our consumer credit business: loan book, IFRS 9 expected credit loss, interest and fee income, write-offs and funding facilities - documented, auditable and scalable.
Get safeguarding right - sign off the safeguarding requirement calculation for each UK regulated entity and ensure safeguarded funds and customer balances are correctly reflected, reconciled and agreed with Data, Treasury and Reconciliation at month-end.
Account accurately for high volumes of multi-currency transactions including FX revaluation and processor and bank balances, and partner with Group Reporting to agree intercompany positions.
Partner with FP&A on entity-level forecasts, evaluate capital adequacy and flag rectification needs ahead of regulatory reporting deadlines; give Tax and Regulatory Finance teams reliable data for FCA returns.
Raise the control bar - document processes and internal controls, close gaps, embed maker/checker review and segregation of duties, give every critical task a trained backup, and work with Finance Systems and Data to automate close tasks and build reporting that scales.
ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified with 10 or more years of post-qualification experience, including a meaningful stint as an entity or financial controller.
Hands-on experience in lending or consumer credit accounting, including IFRS 9 ECL modelling and loan book accounting.
Experience working inside an FCA-regulated firm such as an EMI, payment institution, bank or lender.
Strong FRS 102 and IFRS technical knowledge with a track record of clean statutory audits and the ability to assess and document the accounting treatment of new products.
Comfort with high transaction volumes, multiple currencies and payment processor data; experience with NetSuite or a comparable ERP.
Proven ability to lead and develop a small accounting team, with a hands-on, low-ego approach - happy to review and to roll up your sleeves.
Big 4 or similar audit background.
Fintech, cross-border payments or remittance experience, ideally with working knowledge of safeguarding under the Electronic Money and Payment Services Regulations.
Experience in a multi-entity group with a US parent and US GAAP consolidation requirements.

You will partner closely with the Head of Finance Europe and local leadership on board reporting, tax and business decisions, and with Group Finance on accounting policy, the close timetable and consolidation. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role in a fast-moving fintech: the kind of place where the work is real, the stakes are tangible and there is no one else to hand it to.
Own the monthly European close - deliver accurate, on-time results for all European entities, aligned to Group timetables and accounting policies.
Prepare and file statutory accounts - FRS 102 / IFRS under the Companies Act 2014, filed with the CRO on time, with a clean audit every year.
Own CBI regulatory reporting - prepare own-funds and capital adequacy returns for review by the Head of Finance Europe, with no surprises.
Meet daily safeguarding requirements - prepare the daily safeguarding calculation, review reconciliations, escalate breaches and support the annual safeguarding audit.
Prepare board-level reporting - build board packs on performance, capital, safeguarding and regulatory matters for the local board and its committees.
Partner with Group Finance and local leadership - align accounting policies, agree intercompany balances, support consolidation and feed into budgets and business decisions.
Automate and scale the function - work with Finance Systems and Data to reduce manual effort in regulatory and close processes, and document procedures so the function is resilient.
ACA, ACCA or CPA Ireland qualified, with 7+ years of post-qualification experience in regulated financial services.
Hands-on experience of CBI regulatory returns, own-funds calculations and safeguarding under the EU (Payment Services) Regulations 2018.
Proven track record of Irish statutory accounts and clean audits in a CBI-regulated environment.
Comfortable working closely with senior finance and safeguarding leads, and presenting to local and Group leadership.
Experience with NetSuite or a comparable ERP, and confidence handling high volumes of multi-currency transactions including FX revaluation.
Based in Ireland and ready to be a visible, senior finance presence for the European business.
Big 4 or similar audit background.
Payment institution or EMI experience, ideally in remittance or cross-border payments.
Experience supporting a CBI authorisation or a newly authorised firm in its first years of trading.

LemFi does not accept unsolicited CVs from recruitment agencies. We work only with agencies on our preferred supplier list, and only when we’ve asked them for their support. Any CVs sent to us outside this arrangement will not incur a fee.
Ambition has no passport. That belief is why LemFi exists. We're the financial engine for people the world wasn't built to serve, the millions who move countries to build something better and find the financial system hasn't caught up with them yet. We started with remittances: the money people send home to the people they love. Now we run multi-currency accounts, Savings, eSIMs and Credit. Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.
LemFi is building the financial home for the world's immigrants - multi-currency accounts, remittances, savings, credit and eSIMs across 21 countries and growing. Strategic Finance sits at the centre of that growth: we hold the forecast, challenge the numbers and make sure leadership and investors see a clear, honest picture of the business.
This is the first hire into the FP&A function, reporting directly to the Head of Strategic Finance and FP&A. You will own the full engine: the integrated model, the monthly forecast and BvA cycle, the management pack, and investor and lender reporting. Your numbers go in front of the Board, our investors and our lenders. You will work hand-in-hand with department heads across Growth, Product, Operations and Risk, and have direct exposure to the executive team on commercial and strategic decisions.
Run the monthly forecast and integrated three-statement model - cash runway, revenue, headcount and provider costs - keeping every model reconciled to actuals and documented to a standard anyone can follow.
Own the BvA cycle end to end: gather commentary, challenge variances, and hold budget owners accountable for their numbers every single month.
Produce the monthly management pack and KPI reporting for the executive team and Board, and prepare investor and lender reporting including covenant and facility tracking.
Partner with budget owners across Growth, Product, Operations and Risk on their plans, forecasts and spend - be the finance voice that pushes back with data, not just a service desk.
Build robust business cases for new products, corridors, markets and partnerships, including scenario and sensitivity analysis for leadership and the Board.
Support fundraising, M&A modelling and diligence as needed - your models will be in the data room.
Pull, structure and automate recurring data from NetSuite, the data warehouse and operational systems, using AI where it saves you time and improves accuracy.
3-5 years in FP&A, strategic finance, transaction services or a modelling-heavy consultancy role (Big 4, strategy or deals).
Excellent three-statement modelling skills: driver-based forecasting, scenario and sensitivity analysis, built cleanly and to best-practice standards.
Solid accounting foundations: you can link P&L, balance sheet and cash flow, and reconcile a forecast to the ledger without hand-holding.
Strong data skills and confidence with large datasets; comfortable pulling and structuring data independently.
Clear, direct communicator: you can explain the numbers to non-finance stakeholders and push back where the numbers do not support a decision.
High ownership and attention to detail - you do not wait to be asked and you do not let things fall through the cracks in a fast-moving environment.
Capital markets exposure: equity fundraising, debt facilities, investor reporting or M&A diligence.
Experience in payments, remittance, lending or another regulated financial services business.
NetSuite, BI tools, SQL or automation experience (Python or similar); professional qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or CFA).

About the role
As the Growth Manager for the Italy-Nigeria corridor, you'll drive LemFi's expansion across Nigerian communities in one of our most critical markets. This is a growth role that requires you to be equally comfortable traveling to key diaspora hubs to build physical community presence and managing high-leverage organic growth. You will direct influencer negotiations, manage external agencies, partners, and key community leaders, and execute grassroots field marketing.
You'll spend 3 to 5 days every few weeks in a new Italian city, representing LemFi at Nigerian community events, building partnerships, rigorously tracking campaign performance, and accelerating user acquisition. You're embedded in the communities we serve, acting as both a strategic thinker and a ground-level operator. You will work across paid channels, organic strategy, local agency partners, and product teams to drive massive user acquisition in this market, while serving as the internal voice of the user.
What you'll build and own
Travel across Italy 3 to 5 days every few weeks, establishing on-the-ground presence in new cities. Attend community events, build and expand LemFi's community networks, network with local leaders and organizations, and grow relationships that build deep, ground-level trust.
Develop and execute comprehensive user acquisition strategies tailored to Nigerian ex-pat communities in Italy. Own growth targets for assigned markets and optimize campaigns using data and insights.
Source, negotiate directly with, and manage Italy/Nigeria-focused influencers, creators, key community leaders and external agencies to drive scalable organic growth.
Lead community-driven initiatives to build trust, awareness and advocacy for LemFi. Organize and participate in local events, meetups and forums. Build and maintain strong relationships with community leaders and grassroots partners implementing tracking mechanisms to measure the exact customer acquisition cost of your offline activities.
Identify, negotiate and manage partnerships with relevant organizations and businesses to accelerate user growth. Ensure partnerships deliver mutual value and measurable outcomes tied directly to user acquisition.
Conduct ongoing market research to understand user needs, behaviours and preferences. Provide actionable insights to Product and Marketing teams. Serve as the internal voice of the user, representing community perspectives in decision-making.

Proven ability to work against targets and deliver measurable results. You're motivated by ambitious goals and comfortable being measured against clear KPIs.
Strong data-driven mindset. You interpret data, track performance and adjust strategies accordingly.
Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to build trust with diverse stakeholders. You're a persuasive communicator who can influence partners and leaders.
Entrepreneurial and tenacious. You take ownership, push through obstacles and find ways to win. Biased to action, you think critically and move quickly.
Self-motivated and effective working independently and in remote environments. You're willing to travel extensively and work occasional weekends to support market growth.
Nice to have
Prior experience launching or scaling ventures in new markets.

Having established payout operations in Brazil, LemFi is expanding aggressively across Latin America - launching and scaling in Colombia, Guatemala, and Mexico. This is the role that makes that expansion real. As Senior Growth Manager - LATAM, you will own our market expansion strategy end-to-end. Reporting directly to the Head of LATAM, you will work across paid channels, organic strategy, local agency partners, and product teams to drive massive user acquisition in each market.
Own new sender growth across active LATAM markets, setting the strategy for each country based on community behaviour, competitive dynamics, and channel economics.
Run paid growth: brief the performance marketing team, interpret CAC, CTR, and conversion data daily, and make fast decisions on campaigns, creatives, and spend allocation.
Manage organic and community channels, including agency and influencer relationships, directing output rather than executing it yourself.
Act as the product voice for the region: use data to identify drop-off points (KYC friction, latency, onboarding gaps) and push clearly reasoned improvements to the product team.
Build the market-entry playbook for each new LATAM country, mapping community geography, competitor landscape, and the right channel mix before launch.
Decide when to hire or bring in external resources for a market, and make the case with data to support it.
Use AI tools to speed up your own analysis, campaign briefing, and competitor research, and hold yourself to the standard of always validating the output before acting on it.
5+ years of experience in growth, sales, field marketing, or community-led roles.
Proven track record in growth at a fintech, remittance, or consumer tech company, having owned meaningful KPIs (new users, CAC, conversion) across multiple channels at the same time.
Deep familiarity with LATAM diaspora communities, including the US-based corridors, and a genuine understanding of how community behaviour differs by market (not just in theory).
Hands-on experience managing paid campaigns and reading performance data, with a clear instinct for when to scale, when to pause, and why.
Managed an 8-figure annual growth budget, making spend decisions with accountability for the outcome.
Strong enough on data to diagnose product and funnel problems yourself, not just brief an analyst. You can pull a report, spot the anomaly, and form a view.
Experience managing agencies or external partners and getting strong output from them without micromanaging.
Comfortable operating in a fast-scaling, high-ambiguity environment where the brief changes and the answer is rarely handed to you.
Direct experience launching a product or channel in one or more of Colombia, Mexico, or Guatemala.
Existing network within the LATAM growth or fintech ecosystem (operators, agencies, community leaders).
Fluency in Spanish, particularly in a professional or client-facing context.

Own the full campaign lifecycle from concept to close: brief, execute, measure cost per acquisition and conversion to first-time transacting users, and iterate fast.
Identify new community touchpoints and partnership opportunities across the East African diaspora (Kenya, Rwanda, and broader East Africa) and bring them live quickly.
Use AI tools to accelerate your own output - drafting campaign copy, analysing performance data, and building outreach at scale - while applying your own judgement to validate every insight before acting on it.

Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.
LemFi exists to serve people the financial world has largely ignored. Every campaign we run is a chance to reach a diaspora customer who needs a faster, fairer way to send money home, save in multiple currencies, or access credit for the first time. Performance marketing is not a support function here - it is one of the sharpest levers we have for scaling into new corridors and deepening product adoption in the markets we already serve.
As Senior Performance Marketing Manager, you will own paid acquisition end to end across our core channels and geographies. You will set strategy, run the numbers, brief the creatives, and be accountable for CAC, ROAS and volume targets - not just the dashboards that report them. You will work closely with Product, Growth, Creative and Data to make sure every pound, dollar or naira of media spend earns its place. If you treat a budget like it is your own money, read the data before forming an opinion, and push through the noise to find what actually moves the needle, this role is for you.
Own paid media strategy and execution across Meta, Google, TikTok and programmatic, covering customer acquisition and product cross-sell across LemFi's active markets.
Manage and optimise significant media budgets with a clear eye on CAC, LTV, ROAS and payback periods - make the numbers work, not just look good in a report.
Design and run a rigorous test-and-learn programme across audience segmentation, creative angles, bidding strategies and landing pages, using AI tools to accelerate analysis and iteration.
Translate campaign data into clear, actionable insight for senior stakeholders - lead with what it means and what to do next, not just what happened.
Partner with the Creative team to brief and iterate on paid assets that speak plainly to diaspora audiences across different corridors and cultures, cutting through the noise in crowded feeds.
Work cross-functionally with Product and Growth to align paid campaigns with product launches, corridor expansions and seasonal remittance peaks, so spend lands when it matters most.
Develop and maintain attribution and measurement frameworks that give the business confidence in channel contribution, flagging gaps and pushing for better data where it does not yet exist.
5+ years of experience in performance marketing for a mobile app product, with a proven track record of managing substantial paid media budgets across at least Meta and Google, ideally within a high-growth consumer fintech, payments, or marketplace business.
Full-funnel approach to growth, naturally thinking beyond acquisition and considering the entire customer lifecycle.
Hands-on experience acquiring and retaining users for a mobile app product (iOS and Android), including working with mobile measurement partners, attribution tooling and incrementality testing.
Demonstrably strong analytical skills - you move fluently between a campaign dashboard, a spreadsheet model and a conversation with a data analyst, and you know when instinct must give way to evidence.
Ability to write a sharp creative brief and give structured feedback - you do not need to design, but you know what good looks like for a paid social ad.
Comfort working in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment where priorities shift and you are expected to figure things out without a large supporting team.
A genuine bias for action - you spot a problem or an opportunity, form a view, and move without waiting for permission to test.
Experience running paid campaigns in emerging markets across Africa, the Middle East or South Asia, with an understanding of how channel mix and creative norms differ from Western markets.
Familiarity with AI-powered creative testing or media planning tools, and a habit of using them to do more with less.
Exposure to multi-product growth loops - for example using remittance acquisition as an entry point to drive adoption of Savings, Credit or eSIM products.

Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.
LemFi's Credit tribe is early and moving fast. We're building the infrastructure that will power lending products for millions of people who've historically been locked out of fair credit - immigrants, diaspora communities, and the financially underserved across our 21 operating markets. This is a ground-floor opportunity: the tribe is being built right now, and the systems you design today will be the foundation everything else sits on.
We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Credit tribe and own core backend services end-to-end. You'll be working primarily in Go, with some existing Java services in the mix - switching between them is not the blocker, deep engineering craft and an instinct for how credit products behave is. We move fast and we don't micromanage, which means you'll need to bring the domain awareness to make the right call before anyone has to tell you.
Design, build and operate high-reliability backend services that power LemFi's credit products, from loan origination and underwriting through to repayment and collections.
Make the right architectural calls independently - data residency, service boundaries, state-machine design for loan lifecycles - without needing to be told what a credit-safe system looks like.
Own your services in production: instrument them, monitor them, debug them, and hold the bar on reliability and correctness.
Work closely with product and compliance to translate credit-domain requirements into clean, testable, maintainable code.
Use AI coding tools actively to accelerate delivery and improve test coverage, while taking full ownership of the correctness of every line that ships.
Contribute to growing the tribe - as one of the earliest engineers you'll help set the engineering culture, review others' work, and raise the bar on how we build.
Strong backend engineering in Go; Java experience is a plus given our existing services, but Go is the primary language.
Meaningful fintech experience - you understand how financial systems behave under load, under regulation, and under audit.
Exposure to credit products (lending, underwriting, repayment, collections) at any level - even adjacent - so you arrive with the right instincts, not just a willingness to learn them.
Solid grasp of distributed systems design: event-driven architecture, service boundaries, data consistency, and failure modes.
You care about correctness and data integrity as much as velocity - you've worked in environments where getting it wrong has real consequences for real people.
Comfortable operating with autonomy in an environment where the spec is never fully finished and the team is still being built.
Direct experience building credit decisioning, risk scoring, or loan management systems.
Experience in a high-growth startup or scale-up where you helped establish engineering foundations from scratch.
Familiarity with regulatory and compliance constraints specific to consumer credit (e.g. FCA, data protection requirements for credit data).

Ambition has no passport. That belief is why LemFi exists. We're the financial engine for people the world wasn't built to serve, the millions who move countries to build something better and find the financial system hasn't caught up with them yet. We started with remittances: the money people send home to the people they love. Now we run multi-currency accounts, Savings, eSIMs and Credit. Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.
Every product launch, promo and market entry at LemFi reaches customers through a campaign. As Senior CRM Executive, you'll build and ship them: email, push, in-app and SMS, across remittance, credit, savings and whatever we launch next. You take a brief and turn it into a live, tested, correctly targeted send - then tell us what it did.
You'll report to the Senior CRM Manager for Campaigns and work daily with Growth Managers, Product Marketing, Design and Compliance. This is a hands-on role with a high volume of sends and a high bar for getting each one right, because a wrong rate, a broken link or the wrong segment lands in a customer's pocket. Do it well and you'll be the person the rest of the business trusts to get their message out.
Build and launch campaigns end to end in our marketing automation platform: segments, content, scheduling and send.
Turn campaign requests from across the business into clear builds, and push back when a brief doesn't hold up.
QA every send before it goes: targeting, personalisation, links, localisation and compliance sign-off.
Run A/B tests on subject lines, timing, offers and channels, and feed what wins into the next campaign.
Keep the campaign calendar honest so customers aren't hit by five messages in one day.
Report on every campaign in numbers the team can act on: who received it, who converted, what it was worth.
Spot what's repetitive in your own work and template or automate it.
1-3 years in CRM, email marketing or lifecycle, ideally in fintech, e-commerce or another high-frequency consumer product.
Hands-on with a marketing automation platform (Customer.io, Braze, Iterable or similar) - you build the campaign yourself.
Working knowledge of Liquid and HTML for personalised, dynamic content.
An eye for detail that catches the wrong segment or the broken link before the customer does.
Comfortable pulling your own numbers, with basic SQL or a BI tool such as Tableau, Looker, Amplitude or Mixpanel.
Bias to ship: you'd rather launch, measure and iterate than polish a brief.
Comfortable using AI tools to speed up copy variants, translations and QA checks.
Lived experience or deep empathy with the life of our users - the millions who move countries to build something better.
Language skills in Italian, Portuguese, German, Mandarin, Wolof or Swahili.
Experience running campaigns in a regulated or compliance-sensitive comms environment.
Your work here puts money back into families' pockets. That's the reward, and the weight of it. You'll take on some of the hardest problems in finance alongside people who do their best work when the stakes are real. We move fast and we expect a lot, because our customers can't afford for us to do otherwise. In return you get room to own real problems, global impact you can see, and a team that won't slow you down.
Bring grit and ownership and there's a place for them here. Ambition belongs here, come and show us yours.
