Technology Portfolio Analyst

Company Description

We’re Checkout.com – trusted by brands like eBay, ASOS, Klarna, Uber Eats, and Sony. We enable seamless online checkout and power billions of transactions worldwide.

Checkout.com operates globally with 19 offices across six continents, including a London HQ. We are fast-moving, performance-driven, and continually striving to improve. This is more than a job—it’s a career-defining opportunity to shape the future of fintech.

Job Description

You will help the company understand, structure, and optimise its technology and SaaS portfolio across the business.

This role sits at the intersection of finance, technology, and governance. While security and risk are important, the primary focus is visibility, cost management, and decision support: knowing what technology we use, why we use it, what it costs, and where it can be optimised.

You will provide the data and insight that enable better decisions around technology spend, renewals, and new requests. You are not an approval gatekeeper—you are the person who makes trade-offs visible.

This is an ideal role for someone early in their career with a strong analytical mindset who wants exposure to how a modern global technology organisation operates.

What you’ll be responsible for

• Building and maintaining a clear, accurate view of the company’s technology and SaaS portfolio
• Tracking licences, usage, renewals, and spend across SaaS and technology tools
• Supporting budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis for technology spend
• Identifying cost optimisation opportunities, duplication, and under-utilised tools
• Producing clear, concise reports and insights for technology, finance, and leadership teams
• Supporting SaaS renewals and vendor reviews with structured data and analysis
• Providing data and context to support the intake and review of new technology requests
• Partnering closely with Finance, Procurement, IT, and Cyber Security teams
• Capturing basic governance context for tools (ownership, risk, security posture)
• Helping establish lightweight, scalable standards for how new tools are introduced and reviewed

What we’re looking for

• Early-career experience in FP&A, finance, business analysis, operations, or technology
• Strong analytical skills and comfort working with numbers and structured datasets
• High attention to detail and ability to manage complex information accurately
• Confidence working with spreadsheets, dashboards, and reporting tools
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• Curiosity about how technology and software are used across a business
• Ability to work with stakeholders constructively without becoming a blocker
• Some exposure to SaaS management, IT asset management, or vendor management

Useful background

• Understanding of SaaS commercial and licensing models
• Familiarity with budgeting, forecasting, or cost allocation processes
• Awareness of security, compliance, or risk considerations in technology environments

Bring all of you to work

We create the conditions for high performers to thrive—through real ownership, fewer blockers, and work that makes a difference from day one.

Here, you’ll move fast, take on meaningful challenges, and be recognised for the impact you deliver. It’s a place where ambition meets opportunity, and your growth is in your hands.

We work as one team and back each other to succeed. So whatever your background or identity, if you’re ready to grow and make a difference, you’ll feel at home here.
