Offer description

Wagestream is on a mission to bring better financial wellbeing to frontline workers.

We partner with some of the world’s most famous employers, like Bupa, Burger King, Green King, and the NHS, to give their teams access to fairer financial services—built around flexible pay. Over three million people can now choose how often they’re paid, track their shifts and earnings, start saving, use budgeting tools, get free financial coaching, and access fairer financial products—all in one financial wellbeing super-app.

Wagestream is unique: VC-backed and growing rapidly, yet with a social conscience. Our founding investors include leading financial charities and impact funds. We operate on a social charter, ensuring every product we build improves financial health and reduces the $5.6bn in 'premium' costs that lower-income earners pay annually for financial services.

You’ll join a team of over 200 passionate, ambitious people across Europe and the USA, building a category-leading fintech product united by the same mission.
