About EmbatOne

EmbatOne is the banking arm of Embat, building the next-generation business bank for modern finance teams.

We combine banking infrastructure and automation technology to simplify treasury operations, payments, and financial visibility for companies.

Our goal is to redefine how businesses manage their cash and payments: faster, global, integrated with ERPs, and built for control and scalability.

The role

As Banking Strategy & Operations Associate, you’ll work directly with the Head of EmbatOne to help scale the business.

Your mission will be to help our clients make the most out of EmbatOne, ensuring they get real value from the product, drive payment volumes, and helping improve our internal processes to make the business more efficient.

We’re looking for a smart, hands-on, and fast-learning operator — someone who thrives in ambiguity, takes ownership, and enjoys moving between strategy and execution.

💥 What you’ll do?

• Make our clients successful with EmbatOne – ensure they get real value from the product, move fast through onboarding, and maximize their payment volumes.

• Drive adoption and engagement by understanding each client’s workflows and helping them integrate EmbatOne into their daily treasury operations.

• Take ownership of operational execution – when needed, roll up your sleeves to upload data, configure accounts, or set up payments to keep things moving.

• Act as the main point of coordination between clients and internal teams (product, tech, support) to solve issues and improve processes.

• Document and continuously improve workflows — identify bottlenecks, streamline steps, and build scalable playbooks.

• Collect insights and feedback from clients to influence product decisions and shape our roadmap.

• Support strategic initiatives such as client analytics, reporting, or new feature launches.

• Occasionally join commercial or client meetings to represent EmbatOne and help expand our footprint.

Objectives

• Ensure clients derive maximum value from EmbatOne.

• Increase adoption, engagement, and payment volumes.

• Streamline and improve internal processes to scale operations efficiently.

• Collect actionable insights to inform product decisions and strategic growth initiatives.

💥Who we’re looking for?

• Experience: 2–3 years in consulting, business operations, or similar roles in fintech/startups.

• Preferred background: Strategy consulting firms (financial sector preferred), or experience in payments/treasury operations.

Technical skills (nice to have):

• Experience in banking, payments, or treasury operations.

• Familiarity with ERP systems such as Microsoft Business Central, Netsuite, or SAP.

Soft skills:

• Strong analytical and problem-structuring skills.

• Proven ability to learn quickly about complex financial or technical topics.

• High standards, intellectual curiosity, and humility.

• Bias for action – you enjoy taking ownership and seeing tangible results.

• Attention to detail, quality, and pragmatism.

Languages:

• Fluent in English and Spanish.

💥Why you’ll love this role

• Join the founding team of EmbatOne, working directly with product, technology, and leadership.

• Real ownership and exposure – your work will directly impact how fast we grow.

• Fast professional growth: opportunities to take on more responsibility as the business scales.

• Collaborative, high-performing team culture that values learning, clarity, and excellence without ego.

• Hybrid work model with flexibility and autonomy.

We value motivation, humility, and curiosity above all. If you’re proactive, smart, and eager to learn, you’ll have plenty of room to take initiative and grow quickly. At EmbatOne, your contributions directly shape our product, processes, and business, making this a unique opportunity to be part of a scale-up from the inside.
