Where Fintech and Community Collide | Careers at Flywire

Season 1 Episode 9 Published 1 year, 8 months ago
Description

Common language, common understanding.

From how they onboard to how they create connectivity in a hybrid, global, growing company - Flywire is an organization that knows the power of developing a culture of community.

From calling their members "FlyMates" to celebrating "FlyMoments", the people that work at this organization don't just come to work to do a job - but rather to join a community.

I was incredibly impressed by the intentionality of the Flywire team - in particular - their Chief People Officer, Gary Cunningham. (and I think you will be too!)

Not only will you learn a ton about this publicly traded, growing fintech - you'll come away with a ton of career advice nuggets from someone who has pivoted, grown and excelled.

Enjoy my conversation with Flywire.

What you'll learn:

  • The power of the pivot
  • Build relationships early and often in a new job
  • Don't run away from something, go towards something


Some highlights: 

  • 1,300 "FlyMates" in 16 countries
