The show
Australia's leading fintech podcast
Fintech Chatter is Australia's most listened-to fintech podcast — 370+ episodes and counting.
Hosted by Dexter Cousins of Tier One People, the show has brought insights from Australia's leading founders and operators since 2019. Dexter has interviewed CEOs, founders and leaders from Revolut, Afterpay, Wise, Airwallex, Spriggy, Lendi Group, Stripe, Starling Bank and many of the country's fastest-growing fintechs.
Every episode goes behind the scenes on how fintech leaders build teams, scale businesses and navigate the Australian and global market — the same leadership and executive-hiring questions we help our clients answer through fintech executive search.
