Job description
Bolt's Micromobility business has scaled into a significant vertical — and it now needs financial steering built specifically around it. This is a rare opportunity to build an FP&A function from scratch, own the forecast as the steering tool of the business, and shape the strategic direction of a fast-growing vertical. You'll report directly to the CFO, Micromobility.
Responsibilities
- Own and maintain the master forecast as the single source of truth; deliver monthly top-down updates and periodic bottom-up planning cycles, including the annual budget and CAPEX/OPEX planning.
- Build and maintain fully integrated three-statement financial models (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) with operational drivers embedded; monitor key KPIs and surface risks and opportunities with supporting scenario analysis.
- Challenge assumptions, model business plans, and provide the financial framing that drives commercial decisions — at country, city, and product level; evaluate business cases and investment proposals with a clear ROI and risk framework.
- Build scenario and sensitivity models to evaluate strategic trade-offs; translate outputs into clear, actionable recommendations that influence how the business is run.
- Produce a clear, decision-focused management report each month; own the integrity of the financial outputs and ensure they are usable by leadership — not just presentable.
- Coordinate with Bolt Group FP&A on planning assumptions, consolidation inputs, and reporting standards; manage the MM business's contribution to Group cycles accurately and on time.
Requirements
- Proven experience in FP&A or corporate finance, with a track record of acting as a financial business partner to senior operational leadership in a high-growth, technology, or mobility environment.
- Strong commercial instincts — ability to use financial models to challenge assumptions, frame strategic trade-offs, and influence decisions, not just report on them.
- Exceptional financial modelling skills — able to build complex, fully integrated three-statement models from scratch with clean structure, transparent assumptions, and scenario flexibility.
- Experience with financial planning tools (e.g. Pigment, Adaptive Insights, Anaplan) and advanced Excel proficiency.
- Highly autonomous, with strong cross-team coordination skills — able to manage competing workstreams, set priorities independently, and align effectively with a large Group organization.
- Familiarity with covenant structures, lender reporting, or investor relations is a strong advantage.
- At Bolt, using AI daily is a baseline expectation for everyone. If there’s a faster, smarter way to do your work, we expect you to find it. You’re still responsible for the output, so the standard stays high when using AI tools.
- Experience is valuable, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity — so if you don’t tick every box, apply anyway.
Conditions
- Full-time employment.
- Competitive salary range of $32,500 – $55,000 USD.
- Opportunity to build an FP&A function from scratch.
- Work directly with the CFO of Micromobility.
- Influence strategic decisions in a fast-growing vertical.
