THE MISSION

Our Payments Team is growing and we are seeking 2 x Junior Data Analysts to support financial and payment operations related to Scalapay IP, our licensed payment institute.

This is not your typical Data Analyst role.

• Data Analysis: Reviewing data entered from source documents to ensure accuracy and completeness. Identifying patterns, spotting bugs, and suggesting solutions to improve or automate processes.
• Reporting: Prepare data reports to be shared internally and with external partners to support informed decision-making.
• ETL & Data Integrity: Implement controls to ensure data quality; build ETL processes and, where automation is not possible, perform manual data clean-up.
• Flow Monitoring: Understand payment flows and propose solutions to ensure they operate as expected.
• Continuous Process Improvement: Gather and refine business and technical requirements to improve accuracy and streamline operations.

What We’re Looking For:

• A passion for all things Data related with a high attention to detail.
• Preferably a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Economics, or Technology (not required), and either a strong motivation to start a career in data analysis or up to 2 years of experience as a Data Analyst or in a similar role.
• High level of proficiency in Excel and basic knowledge of SQL, with a data-driven mindset.
• Knowledge of, or willingness to learn, scripting languages such as Python or R.
• Curious and proactive mindset, able to independently identify and solve problems while seeking support from senior colleagues when appropriate.
• Fluency in Italian and English, both written and spoken.

Why you should join Scalapay:

• Competitive compensation tailored to your experience and skills
• International environment with exciting challenges every day
• Work with industry experts and tech leaders building world-class fintech products
• Career acceleration with tailored mentorship and ownership of your work
• Access to cutting-edge tools and technologies, your creativity is welcome
• A culture that values innovation, transparency, and continuous feedback.

Recruitment Process:

• A quick chat with one of our Talent Acquisition team members
• The first interview with David (Head of Payments) and the Data Team to deep dive into your experiences and better understand your motivation
• A case study to test your hard skills
• The review of the test study with David and the Data team
