About FundTap, funding businesses since 2010 

Jess wears many hats: part accountant, part technology futurist, and full-time office DJ. She has crunched numbers and coded lines, but her true passion lies in building products that matter. When she's not crafting roadmaps, you’ll find her in the kitchen, whipping up culinary magic. And after a day of ideation and innovation, nothing beats quality time with family, the ultimate product of life.

Be bold. You’ll never learn more than by putting yourself out there and making mistakes (and then work out how to fix them quickly).

Matt loves small businesses and the incredibly talented people that put it all on the line to create, run and grow them. A scientist by training, Matt is all about problem solving and experimenting, all in the pursuit of finding the quickest, easiest and best solutions to keep businesses, but more importantly the people behind them, humming.

While he might bore you to death at a party around the intricacies of invoice finance, he can usually bring it home with his passion for the the outdoors, the sea and some good food and drink.

If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.

Meet Morgan, the Operations Manager at FundTap. Morgan loves helping customers get the funds they need quickly and efficiently. She’s passionate about making sure everyone succeeds.

Rick has a passion for progress. He likes to seize opportunities as they arise and enjoys the challenge of growing as a person along-side the business. FundTap’s unique position in the fintech industry is the perfect catalyst for Rick – allowing him to bring his hunger to learn, innovative spark and strong work ethic.

Outside of work, Rick lives a second life as mad-keen outdoorsman with a deep streak of “a rural Kiwi bloke” embedded in his blood.

Problems are not stop signs, just challenges that excite creativity.

Animesh challenges us to find a better word than ‘genius’. He can convert an idea into an app by what seems like magic. He assures us it isn’t, but we’re okay with it either way.

Animesh loves to develop applications that help businesses. He is all about learning new things in between his other passions; his family and kids, friends, painting, cricket and travel.

Meet Molly, our Customer Success Manager at FundTap.

Hailing from a dairy farm in South Canterbury, Molly swapped gumboots for city shoes and took on the bright lights of London, working in digital marketing across the consumer goods, food, and agribusiness sectors. Now back in Aotearoa, she’s traded the Tube for beach walks and is happily calling sunny Nelson home.

Outside of work, you’ll find Molly making the most of the great outdoors, skiing, hiking in the mountains, or swimming in the sea. And when she’s not out adventuring, she’s putting her energy into something just as important; working her way through Nelson’s impressive craft beer selection.

Thorough preparation creates its own luck

People dont care how much you know, until they know how much you care.
