About Wolt

At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.

Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.

Your work will cover performance tracking, capital allocation proposals, developing advanced financial models, analyzing data and providing valuable business insights for decision making. As part of the Team, you will be a financial and strategic partner for the Courier functions leadership globally.

In your work, you will also collaborate closely with accounting, analytics, product and local market teams. Our finance and analytics teams provide the treasure trove of high quality data for you to base your work on, and you will jointly develop our reporting and data structures with them to enable us to do even more. There are exciting opportunities in product development, and you will participate in that work, helping us prioritize our efforts as we unlock even more possibilities for us and our partners to succeed through technology.
