Our mission is to make second-hand the first choice, and we're looking for people who want to help us get there. Every day, we work together to help our members buy and sell pre-loved clothing and lifestyle items, giving each piece a second life - or even a third.
The Vinted Group is made up of three business units that support this mission:
- Vinted Marketplace is Europe’s leading platform for second-hand fashion and a go-to destination for all kinds of pre-loved items, with a growing range of categories.
- Vinted Go enhances the shipping experience with a vast network of over 500,000 pick-up and drop-off points, partnering with more than 60 carriers across Europe.
- Vinted Pay is dedicated to bringing secure, reliable payments to buyers and sellers across Europe.
As Strategic Finance Manager, you will be responsible for owning the detailed financial modelling behind Vinted’s payments economics, building business cases for strategic growth, supporting commercial negotiations, and translating analysis into decision-ready executive narratives while partnering closely with multiple stakeholders.
In this position, you’ll:
- Own the financial modelling behind Vinted’s payments and commercial economics — vendor terms, PSP fees, card scheme costs and interchange.
- Build the financial impact for business cases that decide where Vinted Pay goes next: new payment methods, provider consolidation, in-housing vs. outsourcing.
- Model the commercial and P&L implications of options available under our EMI licences.
- Act as the Commercial Director’s finance right hand: turn negotiation positions into numbers, and numbers into a clear narrative.
- Translate analysis into decision-ready slides and stories for exec and board audiences.
- Quantify impact before and after the fact — build the case, then track whether it landed.
About you:
- Have experience in payments or fintech, with real fluency in the cost stack — interchange, scheme fees, acquiring, FX, alternative payment methods.
- Have a strong understanding of commercial modelling, building models others trust and can pick up.
- Proven in a fast-growing organisation and comfortable in a matrix — influence without authority is the default operating mode.
- Communicate like an operator, not an analyst.
Advantage: Knowledge of regulatory literacy around EMI / e-money.
The opportunity to benefit from our share options programme, 25 days of paid annual leave, digital mental and emotional health support, frequent team-building events, home office support, access to a discounted gym membership plan, a personal monthly budget for shopping on Vinted, group life and income protection insurance, a matched pension scheme, and the opportunity to spend up to 90 days per year on workation.
Working at Vinted includes an individual learning budget to support your personal and career development through courses, certifications, workshops and more. We’ve adopted a hybrid workplace model where 2 days in the office are recommended but not enforced.
The Vinted Group is committed to building an inclusive workplace where people from all walks of life feel a sense of belonging. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, identities and life experiences.
