Head of Strategy
At Transfer Galaxy, we have developed a digital platform for cross-border remittance. With the help of technology, we make remittance cheaper, safer and smarter while helping some of the world’s poorest to save on expensive fees when sending money to support their loved ones. We are backed by some of the most prominent investors in the Nordics. We are rapidly growing but believe there is significant room to accelerate growth further.
We are looking for a Head of Strategy to research, lead and implement various strategic initiatives, while playing a pivotal role in the company’s long-term vision.
Within our remittance platform, we serve upwards of 100,000 customers across Europe, sending money to a wide range of geographical areas. To do so, we rely on a number of different partnerships.

We are also open to conducting M&A within remittances.
We have also discussed how we further can leverage our customer base to offer additional products as we have a long-term vision of expanding our product offering. The role entails bringing together pieces of information surrounding market trends and innovations to execute on business opportunities within other verticals.
While spearheading strategic vision, the role is very much hands-on and involves setting up actionable and tangible plans to act upon. The role requires tight cooperation with both internal and external stakeholders and is cross-functional in its nature. It requires you to structure material into tangible presentations and financial plans.
The role entails:
- Leading and executing on new partnerships within remittances (including pitching, negotiating agreements)
- Serving as the contact person and formulating growth strategies in relation to existing partnerships
- Evaluating targets and leading research into M&A within remittances
- Formulating and executing on strategy for vertical expansion
