What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be joining the Finance & Strategy team. We partner cross-functionally to improve the profitability, scalability, and defensibility of our business model, carrying projects from initial conception through to final execution.

Here’s what your day-to-day might look like:

  • Strategic Decision Support: Partner with stakeholders across the business to develop new investment decision-making frameworks and drive strategy in a dynamic environment.

  • Growth vs. Profitability: Own complex models and analyses to help the business strike the optimal balance between aggressive growth and long-term profitability.

  • Custom Financial Modelling: Lead high-impact modelling exercises to support key initiatives, sizing new opportunities and building business cases for innovative products.

  • KPI Analysis: Track and analyse key financial and business KPIs to uncover trends, assessing current and future risks while identifying new market opportunities.

  • Process Innovation: Lead special projects to automate and scale our forecasting and reporting tools, ensuring our methodologies evolve alongside the business.

  • Cross-Functional Leadership: Work closely with operators and departmental leaders to develop new policies and ensure day-to-day execution aligns with our financial targets.

What You’ll Need to Thrive

Our ideal candidate will bring strong expertise in some of these areas and curiosity to grow in others:

  • Finance Leadership: Significant experience (typically 8+ years) in strategic finance, corporate finance, or investment banking, ideally within a high-growth tech environment.

  • Team Development: Proven track record of managing and mentoring teams; you are passionate about building a high-performing "gold standard" finance function.

  • Influencing Power: The ability to earn the trust of senior leaders and influence strategic thinking across a matrixed organisation.

  • Technical Mastery: Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills with the ability to build robust, complex financial models that distill data into digestible insights.

  • Budget Ownership: Experience owning forecasts and budgets for major functional areas, working directly with operators to hit performance targets.

  • Data Agility: Proficiency in SQL (or a strong willingness to learn) to manipulate large datasets and uncover hidden business insights.
