About the Role

Introduction to the Finance Management Department

The Finance Management Department primarily manages and operates "funds," which are management resources aimed at achieving PayPay's business and organizational growth and business plans, and promotes internal management to comply with the Payment Services Act. The team's current mission is to advance financial management operations and strengthen the internal control system. Future plans include promoting business and system improvements (for new and existing services) within the finance department to comply with the Payment Services Act. The team consists of 13 members, mainly in their late 20s to 40s (as of June 16, 2025), allowing for a wide range of responsibilities with discretion.

Background of the Recruitment

PayPay is releasing new products and services at an overwhelming speed, and the importance of fund management, which is the resource for these, has increased more than ever. We expect the successful candidate to strengthen the internal control system in terms of fund management and, eventually, expand their scope of activity to other financial areas and address issues within the Corporate Strategy Division.
