Dohop is a pioneering travel technology company transforming how airlines sell and service connecting journeys. The platform powers seamless passenger experiences while unlocking new commercial opportunities for transport providers across the global travel ecosystem. By removing the complexity of traditional interline agreements, Dohop enables carriers to expand their networks, increase ancillary revenue and offers travellers greater flexibility and choice. Dohop combines the benefits of modern technology, direct airline partnerships and service expertise to offer a superior product at scale. 

Headquartered in Reykjavík, Iceland, with a growing presence in the UK, Dohop is scaling rapidly through strategic partnerships and product innovation. Following a recent investment round led by Scottish Equity Partners (SEP), it is entering an ambitious new phase of growth. Its culture blends Icelandic warmth and wellbeing with the drive of a high-growth tech company. Dohop is building a global business with local heart and looking for leaders who share their vision and appetite for impact.

As Dohop expands its global footprint and deepens its impact across the travel ecosystem, the business is seeking a seasoned Chief Financial Officer to join the executive leadership team. The CFO will serve as Dohop’s financial steward and a trusted strategic partner to the CEO, leading all aspects of financial strategy, performance and investor engagement, positioning the company for continued growth and a successful exit. This is a high-impact position for a seasoned finance leader who thrives in dynamic, scaling environments and understands the demands of venture capital and private equity-backed businesses.

The business is looking for a battle-hardened executive, someone who has been through the trenches of fundraising, investor relations and ideally at least one successful exit. Experience in high-growth tech startups is essential, while exposure to aviation, mobility or platform-based business models would be a valuable advantage.
