Financial Accountant

Location: London, UK
Company: Navro – Pioneering the Future of Payments

Financial Accountant

We’re Navro, a rapidly scaling B2B payments startup, and we’re looking for a hands‑on, detail‑driven Financial Accountant to support our Finance team. This is your chance to take real ownership of core financial processes and help build the financial backbone of a high‑growth global payments business.

You won’t have layers of approval slowing you down. You’ll have the freedom to improve processes, solve problems, and make a visible impact from day one. This isn’t a passenger role. We’re bringing you in for your expertise, ownership mindset, and drive to make things better.

What This Role Demands

You Own It – You’re accountable for every reconciliation, every report, and every month‑end close. If something doesn’t balance, you fix it.

You Ask the Hard Questions – You don’t just post journals; you investigate variances, challenge assumptions, and improve financial accuracy.

You Fix What’s Broken – If a process is manual, unclear, or inefficient, you take the lead in improving it.

You’re Hands‑On – One minute you’re reconciling accounts, the next you’re preparing management accounts or supporting the audit.

You Thrive in Chaos – Startups move fast. Priorities shift. You bring structure and clarity without slowing things down.

You Handle the Pressure – Tight month‑end deadlines, audits, and multiple entities don’t faze you. You stay organised and deliver.

You’re Here for the Journey – This is career‑defining. If you want to grow in a fast‑scaling fintech, this is the place.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Prepare monthly management accounts to the final stage for review by the Head of Finance/CFO.
• Manage month‑end close processes, including journals, accruals, and reconciliations.
• Review and validate payroll and expense runs, ensuring accuracy and compliance.
• Maintain the fixed asset register and ensure correct accounting treatment.
• Oversee accounts payable:
  • Process and verify supplier invoices
  • Maintain the creditors ledger
  • Perform monthly supplier reconciliations
  • Manage supplier queries and payment runs
• Support accounts receivable:
  • Prepare and issue customer invoices
  • Monitor and follow up on overdue balances
• Perform regular bank reconciliations across entities.
• Produce ad‑hoc financial reports.
• Support the annual audit and statutory reporting processes.
• Develop, document, and improve financial processes as the company scales.
• Contribute to projects across finance, systems, and controls.

What We’re Looking For

• Qualified – ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent.
• Startup‑Ready Mindset – Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, evolving environment.
• Detail‑Obsessed – You take pride in clean reconciliations and accurate reporting.
• Problem Solver – Strong analytical skills and the confidence to investigate discrepancies.
• Tool Ninja – Strong Excel skills; experience with NetSuite or similar accounting systems preferred.
• Collaborator Extraordinaire – You work well with Finance, Operations, Compliance, and external partners.
• Bias for Action – You see a problem and think about how to solve it.
• Regulated Environment Experience (Nice to Have) – Experience in fintech, payments, or another regulated industry is an advantage.

You may not possess every single required skill listed, and that’s perfectly fine. If you have most of them, along with grit, passion, a desire to learn quickly, and the willingness to get stuck in, we encourage you to apply.
