Core skills
VGS is the world's leader in payment tokenization. Large banks, aspiring fintechs, and growing merchants embed our universal token vault into their technology stack to manage the complexities of payment data tokenization across processors and networks, open banking, card issuance, omnichannel loyalty, PCI compliance, payment orchestration, and more. We empower our clients and partners by tokenizing sensitive payment data, limiting compliance scope, and consolidating payments to unlock revenue and business opportunities. VGS provides processor-agnostic tokenization solutions via secure universal token vaults, iframes, mobile SDKs, tokenization proxies, APIs, and data orchestration tooling to support payment acceptance, card issuance, PII and bank account tokenization, and other payments value-added services. Some of the use cases we enable include multi-processor Network Tokenization, Account Updater, payment orchestration, secure settlement file processing, 3DS, and Risk provider connectivity. We are seeking a Strategic Finance Manager to help shape the financial and corporate strategy of a rapidly growing payments infrastructure company. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of strategic finance, FP&A, corporate development, and capital markets. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will work closely with the CEO and executive team on some of the company’s most consequential decisions. You will own the company’s integrated financial model and use it to answer questions such as: Where should we invest to maximize long-term value?

How do different operating and capital-structure decisions affect cash, dilution, and shareholder outcomes? This is not a traditional reporting-focused FP&A position. The right candidate will combine exceptional financial modeling with strong commercial judgment, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to operate effectively in an evolving startup environment.
