  VFX Financial has been established for more than 20 years and transacted over £20bn in currency in that time. An early mover in the online payments space, having built some great technology (for the time) and expanded across multiple product lines, the company nevertheless languished in mediocrity for a number of years.In 2022, it was acquired by a young (ish) entrepreneurial team that had previously been part of the senior leadership of another financial services firm they’d helped grow from £1m annual revenues, through an IPO and onwards to a £700m market cap within 8 years.Why does this matter? VFX has had for many years, 4 pillars of a great business in our industry:• Product Range• Tier-1 Banking• Security & Regulation• TechnologyWe are now marrying this with the most important ingredient – People.After conducting over 700 interviews across all departments in the first 18 months following the acquisition, VFX has chosen an additional 45 individuals to strengthen each department. These are people whom we firmly believe will drive the business forward.Humble, motivated and deeply knowledgeable in their respective domains, the team is aligned with clients’ goals and the company values. Each individual has been chosen because they embody the following traits:• Growth Focused• Never Stop Learning• We Before Me• It's Personal, Not Professional• Get Sh$t DoneIf you think this sounds like the environment you’re looking to join, or that you'd enjoy working with, please get in touch:https://www.vfxfinancial.com/contact-us Show less
