Paying out-of-pocket sucks.

Manual data entry is painful.

Workplaces need to be more trusting, and finance leaders need to be more tech-savvy. 

We’re right at the tipping point of a fintech revolution - and we need your help to get there! 

We are looking for a new Delivery Manager to come in and help us work with our Product Engineering teams. We are looking for a highly motivated and experienced Delivery Manager to lead and coordinate cross-functional projects across various domains, and be embedded within a few teams. You have exceptional organizational, leadership, and communication skills to work with teams distributed globally, ensuring alignment with project goals, timelines, and deliverables. You will ensure seamless collaboration by making team dependencies clear and protecting them from upstream disruptions. This role is crucial to driving complex initiatives that involve multiple departments and locations, optimizing collaboration, and ensuring project success.

But wait, you haven't heard of Pleo before? 

Who We Are 

To start, let’s just say we’re saying goodbye to an outdated business process that’s been around forever – the dreaded spend management.

We do this by helping our customers delegate employee spending through a business spending platform. This means no more out-of-pocket spending, encouraging autonomy and trust in employees, and taking a huge burden off the finance team. You'll be building an SaaS tool (company spending solution) that comes with physical pre-paid cards (yes, with a fintech twist) distributed to all employees of the company. The best part? We're all users of Pleo ourselves. It impacts anyone in a company who spends money on behalf of the business – be it a coffee with clients or a Mac for a new hire.

Because we put the employee at the centre of all this, you'll find us to be user-obsessed (don’t take our word for it – check out our Trustpilot page). We place ourselves in the user's position every day and try to minimise the major pains they feel.

Who you are

• 5+ years of experience managing cross-functional projects, preferably in a global or distributed team environment.

• A solid understanding of Agile and Lean Principles and values as well as knowledge of Scrum & Kanban theory, rules and practices

Why join us?

Working at Pleo means you're working on something very exciting: the future of work. Our mission is to help every company go beyond the books. Pleo itself means ‘more than you’d expect’, and it’s been the secret to our success over the last 8 years. So it’s only fitting that we’d pass this philosophy onto our customers to help them make the most of their finances.

We think company spending should be delegated to all employees and teams, that it should be as automated as possible, and that it should drive a culture of responsible spending. Finance teams shouldn’t be siloed from the rest of the organisation – they should work in unity with marketing, sales, IT and everyone else.

Speaking of working in unity, our values tell the story of how we work at Pleo. We have four core values, the first of which is ‘champion the customer’, which means we address real pain points that businesses face. Next up is ‘succeed as a team’, which highlights how our strength lies in our diversity and trust in each other. We also ‘make it happen’ by taking bold decisions and following through to deliver results. Last but not least, we ‘build to scale’, creating lasting solutions that address today’s challenges and anticipate tomorrow’s needs.

So, in a nutshell, that's Pleo. Today we are a 850+ team, from over 100 nations, sitting in our Copenhagen HQ, London, Stockholm, Berlin, Madrid, Montreal and Lisbon offices —and quite a few full-time remotes in 35 other countries! Being HQ'd out of Copenhagen means we're inspired by things like a good work-life balance. If you don't work in the office with us, we'll help you set up the best remote setup possible and make sure you still have time to connect with your team.
