Junior Project Manager

Salmon – Who We Are and What We Do

Salmon is a rapidly growing consumer fintech group, founded in July 2022 with the vision of building the leading credit-led neobank in Southeast Asia.

We chose the Philippines as our launch market and are now a licensed consumer lending company, currently working toward securing a full banking license (subject to BSP approval).

Salmon was founded by three co-founders who previously built and led Tinkoff, a highly successful, tech-driven bank that achieved a market capitalization of over US$20 billion.

Our team is composed of world-class finance and technology professionals from across the globe and is backed by premier investors, including the International Finance Corporation (IFC) — a member of the World Bank Group, ADQ — a sovereign investment company of the Government of Abu Dhabi, and other leading fintech investors.

At Salmon, we are building a technology-driven financial platform designed to operate seamlessly 24/7/365. Our mission is to create thousands of jobs and provide millions of Filipinos with reliable, high-quality access to financial services.

We invite you to be part of this journey as we shape the future of finance together.
