Who We Are:
At Omaze, we give our community in the UK and Germany the chance to win luxury homes and other life-changing prizes — all while raising money for the causes they love.
Thanks to our Omaze Community, we’ve raised over £100 million for UK charities in just five years. That’s millions helping organisations like Age UK, the RSPCA, British Heart Foundation and Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity deliver life-saving work.
And the best part? We’re only just getting started. Omaze is building a business and culture committed to growth and creating significant social impact on a global scale.
🔑 About The Job
Omaze is a subscription-first fundraising platform with over 1.2 million active subscribers. We run large-scale prize draws that change people's lives — and we need flawless payments infrastructure behind every one. This role is the operational heartbeat of that infrastructure: owning reconciliation, dunning, vendor relationships, and the day-to-day health of our payments ecosystem.

THE KIND OF PERSON WHO'LL THRIVE HERE
- Relentlessly precise. At 1.2 million subscribers, small error rates become big numbers fast. You're the person who notices the discrepancy everyone else missed and doesn't rest until it's explained.
- Recovery-minded. You don't just run the dunning process — you obsess over why cards fail, segment your retries intelligently, and find percentage points of recovery others leave behind.
- A confident vendor partner. You build strong relationships with Stripe and Shopify account teams, know how to escalate effectively, and hold vendors accountable to SLAs without burning bridges.
- Process-builder, not just process-follower. You inherit some workflows and build others from scratch. You're comfortable creating runbooks, automating repetitive checks, and leaving things better than you found them.
- Clear under pressure. When a payment incident lands at pace, you triage fast, communicate clearly to Finance and leadership, and resolve it without drama.
🙌 What’s In It For You
- Generous stock options scheme
- 25 days annual leave PLUS Bank Holidays
- Private medical and dental insurance
- 9% employer pension contributions, when you contribute at least 2%
- A generous personal learning and development budget each year to use on training courses, conferences and professional memberships
- Enhanced family leave policies
- Life assurance of 4x your salary
