About Fussy
We're Fussy…about everything in our mission to banish single-use plastic from your bathroom. Having experienced exceptional growth over the past four years, we are now looking for a talented individual to join the team as our Finance & Operations Executive, owning our retail Order to Cash process. You'll report to our Finance Manager, working together to continue to build a high performance culture where our team stay and develop and where future hires are excited to join. This is an exciting opportunity to join a scale-up through a significant period of growth. You'll be a strategic partner to the leadership team and a champion for our people.
What you’ll be doing:
- Own the end-to-end retail Order to Cash process, from order receipt and invoicing through to payment collection and reconciliation.
- Act as the key point of contact for retail partners, buyers and internal teams, building strong working relationships to keep orders and payments flowing smoothly.
- Reconcile retail sales, returns, promotions and deductions against purchase orders and invoices, investigating and resolving any discrepancies quickly.
- Monitor debtor days and cash collection, proactively chasing overdue payments and flagging risk to the wider finance team.
- Maintain accurate, well-documented records across our systems, spotting errors before they become problems.
- Partner with finance and operations colleagues to continuously improve our processes, controls and reporting as we scale.
Who you are:
Great comes in lots of different forms, and we’re really open to seeing candidates from a range of backgrounds. Given the nature of this role and what we’ll ask of you, we do believe that the following skills are needed to be able to deliver to a high standard:
- Experience in a finance, credit control or operations role, ideally with exposure to retail Order to Cash processes.
- Excellent stakeholder management skills — confident building relationships with retail partners and internal teams alike.
- Meticulous attention to detail, comfortable working with high volumes of data and spotting discrepancies others might miss.
- Strong Excel skills and a methodical, organised approach to reconciliation and reporting.
- A proactive, can-do attitude, able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.
Bonus points, but these are not a deal breaker:
- Experience with ERP or accounting systems (e.g. NetSuite, Xero, SAP).
- Experience working directly with UK retailers or grocery accounts.
- Background in FMCG, consumer goods or a fast-growing scale-up.
This isn't the right role for you if:
- You'd rather a purely strategic role than a hands-on, detail-driven operational one.
- You prefer a slow-moving, highly structured environment with little change.
- You don't like working in fast-paced and changeable environments.
What we offer:
- A chance to play a part in banishing single-use plastic from the bathroom.
- A salary of £30-35k depending on experience.
- Hybrid working with Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in our London (Shoreditch) office.
- 33 days annual leave including flexible bank holidays + a day off for your birthday.
- Our WellHub membership with a range of fitness & wellbeing options.
- Share options after probation, so that you can benefit from our growth.
Who we are:
Fussy are on a mission to banish single-use plastic from the bathroom by designing simple, effective and convenient personal care products that are backed by science not buzzwords. Our first product, a refillable deodorant is now the UK’s top rated natural deodorant. We have put in place the foundations of a world-class team of employees and advisors and this is a super exciting time to join as we are now looking to accelerate our growth into new products and territories.
