The posting

Job description

Bamboo Card is a Dubai-based B2B distributor of digital prepaid products and a rewards fulfilment partner to enterprises worldwide. Since 2018 we have built a catalogue of more than 3,500 products across over 80 countries, delivered through our client portal and API. More than 1,000 enterprise clients rely on us to power rewards programmes, employee incentives, customer acquisition campaigns and marketplace inventory. We sit in one of the fastest-growing corners of the payments ecosystem with the banking infrastructure and supplier relationships that make global digital rewards work at scale.

We’re scaling fast, and we are looking for a tech-forward Finance Director to lead a complete transformation - tearing down slow, manual processes, implementing a modern ERP tech stack, and building a lean, automated finance org that can seamlessly support our high-velocity API transaction volumes.

What You'll Do

Finance Transformation & Automation

  • Run a top-to-bottom audit of our current workflows, tools, and output quality. Design a modern target operating model that replaces repetitive manual tasks with intelligent workflows.
  • Select, deploy, and embed the right modern ERP and finance automation tools suited for a high-transaction digital platform.
  • Crush our month-end close cycle down to under 5 business days within your first year.
  • Build self-serve financial reporting dashboards so the CEO and commercial leaders can own their metrics without waiting on finance.

Commercial Finance & Strategic FP&A

  • Drive budgeting, forecasting, and agile reforecasting.
  • Deep-dive into financial models built for platform economics: transaction margins per brand, API revenue contribution, cohort profitability, and working capital dynamics.
  • Monitor and report on the KPIs that actually drive our growth: gross margin by product/region, transaction velocity, client acquisition costs (CAC), and revenue concentration risks.

Accounting, Controls & UAE Compliance

  • Ensure accurate statutory reporting in full compliance with UAE Corporate Tax, VAT, and free zone/mainland requirements. Manage relationships with external auditors and local banks.
  • Design a robust internal controls framework, paying ruthless attention to prepaid product float management, FX exposure, and multi-currency treasury reconciliation.
  • Ensure our financial infrastructure cleanly supports an API-driven, high-volume environment with crystal-clear digital audit trails.

Who You Are

The Baseline

  • CPA, ACCA, CMA, or an MBA in Finance is essential, paired with a relevant degree.
  • 10–15 years in finance, with at least 4 years steering the ship in a senior leadership role.
  • You've operated in the 50–200 employee sweet spot and thrive in a lean, fast-paced culture.

Your Playbook

  • You have a proven track record of building systems, not just managing them. Your first instinct when a process is slow is to automate it, not hire more headcount
  • You have deep experience in a high-transaction digital business (payments, fintech, e-commerce, digital distribution, or SaaS) and intuitively understand API revenue streams.
  • You know the UAE banking and tax landscape inside and out (VAT, Corporate Tax, local regulatory environments).
  • You have hands-on experience implementing modern software across ERPs, AP/AR automation, close software and BI tools. Excel is your baseline, but you hate using it as a database.

Job benefits

If you are looking to step into an established corporate hierarchy, this isn't it. But if you want the autonomy to design a financial operation, work directly with a non-finance CEO who values speed and data, and own the financial backbone of a rapidly scaling fintech - this is your next chapter!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
