Slack Workspace Architect
TLDR
Design and implement a comprehensive Slack workspace for a startup poised to redefine client experiences in the financial services sector.
Solance is the new tier in finance. We’re a bold new player, specialised in helping clients with complex corporate structures access the kind of financial services they’ve always struggled to get. Think Credit Suisse’s service DNA spliced with Revolut’s tech genius; Solance is that hybrid, engineered for the best client experience you’ve ever had.
Our EMI license is in progress and we’re gearing up for launch in 2026. That means we’re building Solance from scratch: processes, culture, products, and a brand that sets a whole new standard. We are temporarily scaling our team and we need a Slack expert who understands that in a fast-moving fintech environment, how you communicate is as important as what you communicate.
The Opportunity
We're looking for an experienced Slack Workspace Architect (a true Slack-Veteran) to design, configure, and document our Slack environment from the ground up. This isn't a "spin up some channels and call it done" project, we need someone who thinks about governance, access control, and operational scalability from day one.
If you've built Slack workspaces for regulated financial services companies and you take pride in clean, well-documented setups that teams want to use, we want to hear from you.
What You'll Deliver
- Channel Architecture & Setup Design and build a channel structure aligned to our functional teams, Product, Engineering, Compliance, and Operations, with appropriate permissions, naming conventions, and access controls baked in.
- Tool Integrations Connect our core stack into Slack; PagerDuty, Monday.com, Sumo Logic, AWS among others. Configure alerting, notifications, and workflows that route the right signals to the right people without creating noise.
- Workflow Automation Set up basic automations and workflows to streamline recurring processes and reduce manual overhead for the team.
- Onboarding & Access Management Add team members, configure permissions, and set up a repeatable onboarding flow so future hires can be onboarded cleanly.
- Documentation Deliver clear, maintainable documentation so our internal team can run, extend, and audit the workspace after handover.
Why This Role Matters
We will be operating in the highly regulated European financial services environment. We're not asking you to run a compliance audit, but we are asking you to bring the experience of someone who's worked in regulated industries before. You should naturally think about data governance, audit logging, and why least-privilege access matters when designing workspace architecture.
Requirements
Required Experience
- Proven track record setting up and configuring Slack workspaces end-to-end.
- Hands-on experience working with fintech, payments, banking, or other regulated financial services companies.
- Direct experience integrating at least one of: PagerDuty, Monday.com, Sumo Logic, or AWS with Slack.
- Strong written communication, you can explain your reasoning, not just your actions.
- A consultative mindset, you ask sharp questions about our use cases instead of working off a generic checklist.
How to Apply
Submit a cover letter with a fixed-price proposal including:
- Total fixed fee for the full scope of work
- Fixed delivery date: your committed completion date based on a 2-week engagement window
- Brief outline of your approach: how you'd structure the engagement, key milestones, and what you'd want to clarify upfront
- Relevant fintech/regulated industry experience: specific examples of similar workspaces you've built
- Tooling experience: Which of our integrations (PagerDuty, Monday.com, Sumo Logic, AWS) have you worked with and in what context
We're evaluating proposals on the quality of thinking as much as price. The best proposal isn't necessarily the cheapest; it's the one that makes us confident you'll deliver cleanly and on time.
