Australian fintech unicorn Airwallex is expanding its recruitment operations in Tel Aviv, capitalizing on a recent funding surge that has pushed its valuation above $11 billion.
The company announced the move on Sunday, confirming plans to scale its presence in the Israeli tech hub.
The hiring push follows a $320 million Series H investment round that valued Airwallex at more than $11 billion, marking a 38% increase from just six months prior.
Or Liban, head of Airwallex’s Tel Aviv center, emphasized the firm’s commitment to the region.
"Here in Israel, we remain committed to scaling our operations and increasing our investment in the Tel Aviv center," Liban stated.
The expansion underscores the company’s strategy to deepen its footprint in key global markets even as it navigates a complex fundraising landscape.
