About Us:
The Centre for Finance, Technology, and Entrepreneurship (CFTE) is a global capability-building platform that helps financial institutions, regulators, central banks, governments, and technology organisations prepare their people for the AI era.
We are not simply a training provider, an online course platform or a content company. CFTE is an end-to-end capability-building platform for the current generation and beyond.
What makes CFTE special?
When we say we bet on people - it's not a commercial motto. We really do. We are working hard to create a platform of lifelong learning because we believe "learn to learn" is the true skill of the 21st century. Naturally, we apply this paradigm to ourselves.

- Entrepreneurial energy with the ability to move fast, learn quickly, and take initiative
- Strong communication skills and meticulous attention to detail
- Previous experience in fast-paced environments (startups, consulting, or venture capital) is a plus
Why join us
- Be part of a driven, hard working team on a mission to shape the future of finance
- Gain exposure and learn from senior leaders of financial organisations, central banks, regulators and rapidly growing startups
