Operations Analyst

Solance is the new tier in finance. We're a bold new player, specialised in helping clients with complex corporate structures access the kind of financial services they've always struggled to get. Think Credit Suisse's service DNA spliced with Revolut's tech genius; Solance is that hybrid, engineered for the best client experience you've ever had.  

Our EMI license is in progress, and we're gearing up for launch end of Q3, 2026. We are building Solance from scratch: processes, culture, products, and a brand that sets a whole new standard. If you're ambitious, hungry, and ready to step into a key role where you will help shape our future success, this could be the opportunity for you.  

As part of this journey, we're searching for an Operations Analyst (aka ‘the Client Whisperer’), someone who thrives in complexity, thinks analytically, and understands how to deliver a great customer experience, from the moment a customer is onboarded through to making their first day-to-day payments.

The role is at the heart of Solance, embodying what we stand for: fast, intelligent, 24-hour onboarding and an operating model built for real-world complexity. You are the person our teams turn to for clear, practical guidance that keeps innovation flowing and ensures decisions are both compliant and fast.
