At Alma, we believe sustainable commerce depends on fair, well‑balanced trade. Because finance plays a pivotal role in business, our mission is to put it back in its rightful place - serving merchants and consumers.
Our installment and deferred payment solutions help merchants boost sales by 20% or more, increase customer loyalty, and deliver a seamless shopping experience - without encouraging bad debt.
As the buy now pay later leader in France and active in 10 European countries, we've empowered over +25,000 merchants and 10 million consumers.
With 400+ Almakers and €100M+ ARR, Alma is scaling rapidly across Europe as a member of the Next40, and we're just getting started!
Strategic Finance sits within Alma's Finance function and reports to the CFO. The team owns pieces of Alma's P&L end-to-end (top line, unit economics, pricing and the business plan), from the model all the way to the Board deliverables.
This is a newly created position, opened as we structure Strategic Finance around strategic nodes for 2027. You will report to the Head of Strategic Finance and have no direct reports.
The role is deliberately versatile. Your first perimeter will most likely be New Business & Growth (new merchant acquisition in France including Enterprise, the Consumer business, and our two youngest markets, DACH and Iberia), but scopes are assigned by profile and rotate over time, so what matters most is your ability to own any part of Strategic Finance as the team and the business grow.
This position is a permanent contract (CDI), based at our Paris HQ (Saint-Ouen), hybrid.
Google Sheets and Excel, SQL (largely AI-assisted at Alma), Notion, Slack, and AI assistants / LLMs.

For consumers, the purchase experience is enhanced (4.8/5 on Trustpilot) and Alma helps them handle their budget easily. They pay later, Alma pays the merchants right away.
We are the leader in France, on track to win the European market on the (very) powerful Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) industry, as we’re now processing payments in 10 European countries. Over the past 5 years, more than 13,300 active merchants have chosen Alma to be their innovative BNPL solution, and we have served over 3,6 million consumers.
The team has grown from 2 to 300+ people, we raised a €115M series C early 2022 to help us accelerate further and Alma is already part of the French Tech 120 ranking of the most promising French technology companies. And that's only the beginning.
