Role: Funding Operations Officer

Location: Toorak, Melbourne

Work arrangement: Onsite, Full Time

Compensation: AUD 70,000-80,000 + Superannuation

You’ll join a fast-growing international fintech focused on flexible funding for SMEs. The business launched in Australia, has expanded across APAC and Europe, and has funded more than $5B in loans.

What You'll Do

- Process loan disbursements and make sure funding matches contract terms and bank statement records.
- Build reporting and automate repetitive finance workflows using Python or similar tools, while still staying hands-on with day-to-day operational processing.
- Review and reconcile customer refunds, repayment activations, and payment-plan setups.
- Manage the loan lifecycle from activation through payment setup and settlement support.
- Run weekly and monthly commission processing, including internal verification of calculations before payments go out.
- Investigate reconciliation breaks across multiple systems, resolve discrepancies, and help protect data integrity.

Who we're looking for

This will suit you if you like operational ownership, care about accuracy, and want a role that mixes automation work with detail-heavy finance processing rather than a pure analyst path.

Must-Haves:

- Around 1 to 3 years of experience in finance operations, funding operations, or accounting operations, with at least 1 year in a hands-on operational role.
- Practical experience across payment or funding operations such as disbursements, refunds, commission processing, loan operations, or complex reconciliations across systems.
- Advanced Excel skills, including macros, complex formulas, and report building.
- Hands-on Python or similar scripting experience used to automate repetitive workflows in a finance or funding operations workplace.

Nice-To-Haves:

- Experience in lending, financial services, or another transaction-heavy finance environment.
- Exposure to SME lending or non-bank lending operations.




- Experience working in high-volume, deadline-led processing environments with multiple live payment or reconciliation streams.
- Salesforce experience, or experience with a comparable financial or operational system.

What's In It For You

- Join a business that has funded more than $5B in loans and is continuing to scale across APAC and Europe.
- Get genuine scope to improve reporting and automate recurring finance processes, working closely with finance leadership.
- Be part of a team described as people-first, with strong recognition for culture, diversity, and customer experience.
- The company has been recognised as Australia's #1 Best Workplace™ in Finance and Insurance for 2026.
