People on the move deserve a bank that moves with them. Since 2022, Aspora has been building a borderless financial operating system that makes money as mobile and transparent as its users.
Backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator & Global Founders Capital. We're a team of 75+ across India, the UK, the UAE, EU and the US, working with extreme ownership, radical candour, and an obsession with customer impact.
We celebrate builders who question assumptions, ship fast, and turn regulatory complexity into elegant solutions. If you’re driven to redefine what global banking can be, we’d love to build the future with you.
About the RoleYou will work directly with the Founder & CEO to lead Aspora’s market expansion initiatives. From identifying and assessing new diaspora/local markets to setting up full-scale operations. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role at the center of Aspora’s growth strategy, combining strategic market scoping with hands-on market launch execution.
Your mandate will include market research, regulatory and legal enablement, infrastructure setup, and operational readiness to ensure Aspora’s successful entry and sustainable growth in new geographies. You will also be responsible for developing the value proposition, ideal customer profiles (ICP), and product roadmap, collaborating with the product team for product development and testing, and working closely with the growth team for branding and market launches. You will collaborate closely with all internal teams (Product, Growth, Operations, Compliance, Legal, Partners, Investors, etc.) as well as external stakeholders (regulators, banking partners, vendors) to deliver end-to-end market launches.
We’re looking for someone who can think like a strategist and execute like an operator, navigating ambiguity, building from zero to one, and ensuring that every new market is set up for long-term success.
