PAIR Finance has been recognised as a “Most Wanted Employer 2025” in a year when artificial intelligence and digital processes are transforming the debt collection market more than ever! The renowned ZEIT publishing group and kununu have included PAIR Finance in the exclusive ranking of the 1,200 most popular employers in Germany. This not only makes us proud – it is proof of the innovative strength that makes us the technology leader in the industry and a strong signal to all those who want to work, grow and rethink the financial world with us.
What makes this seal special: Our employees decided
The recognition as Most Wanted Employer is the result of genuine voices: Our employees have rated us 4.1 out of 5 stars on kununu, 81% actively recommend us, and more than 100 authentic experience reports confirm that our working environment is convincing. In total, only 0.5% of all companies listed on kununu have made it into this ranking, and PAIR Finance is among them!
Why is this so important to us? People trust people. This also applies when choosing an employer: 73% of job seekers in Germany use review platforms like kununu (Source: Trendence Study 2022). The seal therefore stands for credibility, authenticity and quality, making it a clear statement to both applicants and business partners alike.

To receive the “Most Wanted Employer” award, companies had to meet the following requirements:
- At least 3.5 out of 5 stars as an overall score on kununu
- Recommendation rate of at least 70% by employees
- At least 80 employee reviews in total

A team rethinking debt collection – for our business clients and for the industry
PAIR Finance is not simply a debt collection company. We are actively shaping the future of receivables management – digital, efficient and customer-oriented. Our vision: To sustainably change the debt collection market in Europe. To achieve this, we rely on a unique team and a special mix of artificial intelligence, data science and behavioural research.
Of our approximately 300 employees, one-third work directly in the tech stack: developers, data scientists and AI experts ensure that our solutions are technologically leading and continuously improving. We are also proud of our team of behavioural researchers – a novelty in the industry. They analyse consumer behaviour, develop new communication strategies and ensure that our processes remain not only efficient but also empathetic and fair.

What’s behind the award and why it matters to our business clients
Innovation culture as a competitive advantage: Our technology doesn’t emerge in a vacuum: It’s the result of diversity, courage to take responsibility and an extraordinarily data-driven mindset in the team. For our partners, this means: continuous development, state-of-the-art AI and services that are measurably oriented towards user behaviour.
Talent attracts talent: Top talents from AI, behavioural psychology, data engineering and fintech deliberately choose PAIR Finance. Why? Because they find room for creativity, relevance and clear purpose orientation here. This means: high employee retention, low turnover, strong focus on quality and scaling.
Responsibility as part of our work culture: Our teams actively help implement and further develop AI, data and compliance standards. This creates innovations that are as valuable for B2B partners and investors as they are for our employees – because we work sustainably, transparently and with foresight.
We thank all employees for their trust and passion. And we thank all business clients and partners for the collaboration as equals. Together we are rethinking debt collection!
Growing together – and creating space for innovation
PAIR Finance’s success is no coincidence, but the result of a strong team and a clear vision. Innovation, collaboration and growth shape our corporate culture – and this is precisely reflected in our new European headquarters.
In May, we moved into our new office in the heart of Berlin’s City West – just a stone’s throw from Ku’damm. What began as a start-up with a few employees is now an international team of over 300 colleagues. Our new office not only provides more space for our growing team but is also a clear commitment to a modern, inspiring work environment. The spacious social area, the roof terrace, the silence room and numerous modern meeting rooms create the perfect environment for creative exchange, innovation and team spirit.
Alongside our offices in Vienna, Zurich, Amsterdam, Warsaw and Stockholm, Berlin is our largest location – and officially our European headquarters. To celebrate our international spirit, each meeting room is named after one of the most famous places in the cities where we operate.
