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.
We are seeking an analytical and proactive Financial Analyst to join our F&S (Finance & Strategy) team, focusing on the company-wide Operating Expenses planning and analysis.

We work closely with various teams across Wolt and DoorDash worldwide to ensure our operational and strategic goals are met with precision.

You'll manage the reporting and forecasting templates, provide insights that drive strategic decisions, contribute to long-term financial planning, and help teams hit ambitious efficiency goals. Operating expenses are a key lever in driving profitability and competitiveness at Wolt, and your work will directly support that mission.
You’ll partner closely with global G&A and R&D functions to track performance, build financial models, and deliver business insights that enable smarter decisions. This role sits at the intersection of finance, strategy, and operations—offering deep exposure to how Wolt runs and grows.
