The Role

We are looking for an ambitious and detail-oriented Finance Associate to join our global finance team. This role sits at the core of our finance operations, with a focus on bookkeeping and supporting month-end processes across a multi-entity, multi-currency, and multi-geography environment. You will gain hands-on experience - supporting operations that span funds, management companies, and startup ecosystems worldwide. The breadth of exposure in this role is uniquely difficult to find in traditional corporate or Big 4 environments. While grounded in fundamental finance responsibilities, the role offers broader visibility than a typical entry-level position, with the opportunity to contribute to processes that support teams across multiple regions. You will play a key role in ensuring the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of financial information, helping to keep our global operations running smoothly as Antler continues to grow. This role has flexibility for remote working, however, you must be based in within the United Kingdom.

What We’re Looking For

• 1–2 years of experience in a finance, accounting, or operations role within a corporate or fast-paced environment
• Experience working across multi-entity, multi-cost centre, and/or multi-currency structures
• Familiarity with ERP/accounting systems (e.g. Xero, QuickBooks, Sage; NetSuite is a plus)
• Strong attention to detail with a proactive and problem-solving mindset
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
• A collaborative, energetic approach and willingness to learn in a global team

Why Join Antler
