Oval was founded in 2016 and has helped tens of thousands of people learn how to take control of their finances – from their spending to their saving and investment habits - with our award-winning app.

Thanks to the integration with ETX Capital, now called OvalX, a leading global financial services firm with a long legacy in the financial markets, our users will be able to access a variety of investment opportunities such as global CFD markets that include forex, commodities, shares, and cryptocurrencies.

Spread across three offices in the UK, Italy, and Cyprus, we are one global team of 250 people with a unified vision for the future of finance. We are currently looking for talented people keen to define the fintech revolution and help the brand shift from a well honed start-up to a substantial industry presence. If you want to make an impact, then we can’t wait to have you with us for the journey!

We want someone to come in and take ownership of all aspects of onboarding and offboarding our employees, providing a world class experience.

We need someone who is ready to roll up their sleeves, can think outside the box and is flexible in their working style, finding solutions to problems in a diplomatic way and can keep their cool when under pressure.
