Role Background

While we are a tech company at heart, our success relies heavily on the performance of our 27 country teams. Our industry is both hyper-local and operational by nature. Therefore, our ability to create and deliver unmatched user experience is contested every day across all our cities.

• Develop forecasting methods and logic used for business planning at Wolt.
• Continuously support the development of tools, processes and systems for financial follow-ups.
