ABOUT US
Jonas Fintech is a growing, profitable SaaS business at the heart of the UK payments market. We operate two established brands, Paygate and London & Zurich, delivering mission-critical Direct Debit and Bacs payment solutions that help businesses collect and manage recurring revenue at scale. Between them they serve a broad and loyal customer base built over more than 20 years of operating in this market.
The business has been commercially strong. We know how to sell, how to retain, and how to grow revenue. What we are now doing is matching that commercial engine with the product and technology capability it deserves. We are investing deliberately in modernisation, moving toward a product-driven model, and embedding AI across how we build, operate, and compete. This is the foundation for increasing the pace of the business's growth.
Jonas Fintech sits within Vesta Software Group, part of Jonas Software and Constellation Software Inc. This means we operate with the speed and focus of a standalone business, while having access to the capital, M&A pipeline, peer network, and long-term orientation of a global group operating across 17 countries. Vesta is a buy-and-hold acquirer of vertical market software businesses, in it for the long term, and Jonas Fintech is part of that family.
A full senior leadership team spanning commercial, product, technology, operations, and compliance is in place. The commercial infrastructure is established. The product investment cycle has started.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is a hands-on technical management role, reporting directly to the CTO. The right person will be equally comfortable running 1:1s and owning delivery rhythm, and writing tests, writing code as and where needed, and reviewing PRs with genuine technical depth.
You will lead on ways of working, AI adoption, QA automation and code review culture across the engineering function, working closely with technical team leads on technology choices and delivery.

THE VESTA AND JONAS ADVANTAGE
For the right candidate, the group context is a genuine differentiator, not a footnote.
