About Zeller
At Zeller, we’re champions for businesses of all sizes, and proud to be a fast-growing Australian scale-up reimagining business banking and payments.
We believe in a level playing field, where all businesses benefit from access to smarter payments and financial services solutions that accelerate their cash flow, help them get paid faster, and give them a better understanding of their finances. So we’re hard at work building the tools to make it happen.
Zeller is growing fast, backed by leading VCs, and brings together a global team of passionate payment and tech industry professionals. With an exciting roadmap of innovative new products under development, we are building a supportive and high performing team to inspire change in the outdated banking solutions. If you are passionate about innovation, thrive in dynamic environments, embrace new possibilities, hate bureaucracy, and can’t think of anything more exciting than evolving the status-quo, then read on to learn more.
Zeller is building one of the most AI-leveraged finance functions in the market — a small team that punches far above its weight by treating AI as core infrastructure, not a novelty. We're looking for an FP&A Analyst to be a driving force in that.
This isn't a run-the-playbook role. You'll dig into the economics of a high-volume payments business, work alongside the people setting commercial strategy, and help build the AI-powered workflows that let a lean team operate like a much larger one. You'll grow into the team's go-to person on gross margin — learning the cost dynamics of a payments engine to help find efficiencies and sharpen our unit economics — and you'll support Sales and Marketing as a commercial partner.
You'll work across a modern data stack — Databricks, Claude Code, Gemini, Aleph, Xero. You'll have the tools and the encouragement to lean on AI/LLMs to take the manual grind out of the work.
Commercial Business Partnering

Growth: Partner with Marketing and Growth on unit economics (CAC, payback) to optimise acquisition-channel efficiency.

Model Architecture: Create and enhance the models behind acquiring economics, customer acquisition, and three-way statement forecasting.
