Financial Manager - UAE

About The Company

Fuse is rebuilding clearing from the ground up. Fintech has gone global and emerging markets have become growth markets, transitioning from high risk jurisdictions to must have corridors, but clearing banks haven’t evolved. We believe the clearing stack needs to be rebuilt. Treasury pooling and/or stablecoins fix surface level issues, but no one is rebuilding the underlying infrastructure in each market - from correspondent nostro account networks to clearing on local central banks.

We’re building a new type of clearing bank, connecting globally important growth markets (such as the Middle East, China, India, Turkey and many more) to G7 currencies through named virtual accounts in every jurisdiction. We take quality very seriously - using our own direct central bank clearing where possible, applying for global banking licenses, operating a universal reliance KYC model - all to ensure the same few lines of code enables a correctly named payment from a local account in every market, making us the ideal clearing partner for any cross border payment.

About The Role

We’re hiring a Finance Manager (UAE) to take full ownership of day-to-day finance operations and group reporting support. You’ll run the core finance processes - from bank reconciliations across all group entities to managing expenses, payments, and reporting ensuring the numbers are right, the documentation is clean, and senior finance leadership can focus on strategy. This is a hands-on, detail-first role for someone who thrives on structure and accuracy.
